With the KK hand I don’t mind the donk river line, but that’s only a line you really should take it you’re going to bet/fold. You give up EV from the few bluffs he would fire on the river in exchange for getting value from hands he might check back. Just exploitatively, this is never a bluff from villain and you need to be able to find the fold with KK here
I was saying that I would have check the river, and not lead out, I a play PLO more than NLH so im always aware of people might having the nuts there, all in for 2k on river, is screaming I have the nuts
Lex iv'e had he worse 3 months of my life recently at the tables. im sooooo damn frustrated and I know you are as well, but just remember.... you're down not out. Keep playing and making videos We all love em buddy. cheers from Texas!!!
Lex great video! I see those calluses on your hands from lifting haha I’ve been watching you for a long time a learning a lot. I appreciate you thanks!
Hey Lex very tilting game but I’m sure you will get that back and more because you are a good player, it could have been a lot worse, golf is a good way to unwind keep up the good work
Oh no don’t take your beautiful brand new A3 through a car wash it will scratch the heck out of your paint! Coming from a vlog fan and proud S5 owner! 🤙
When you turned the set of KKs im more in check call mode there. If he jams i could assess and decide. Easier to fold on a jam there but he most likely goes for thin value so you save a few chips.
I don’t like the way you played the QQ hand on the T566x board. What’s he raising the flop and jamming the river with besides TT? I think you leveled yourself there.
Lex.! Don’t run that Beautiful car though that car wash! You must hand wash it or it will be full of swirls. By the way I’m a buddy of Dave’s in Vegas. Thanks for the vids!
Lex, the bristles on those auto wash tunnels will scratch your car's finish. It will be annoyingly visible over time. Find a hand carwash or a mobile service.
The QQ is nasty nasty. That Jack on the river killed everything. If a 2 comes out you can justify a call, but that J was a dagger, I would of most likely folded as well.
Hey Lex, I always watch you vlog. All your vlog are very interesting. I just want to comment on your play with KK hand. If I were you I will check on the River and call. He already raised you on the turn. He might not put you all in and you might have saved some chip. Also the QQ hand I will never fold the hand like that. If he got me. he got me. Over all you play very good.
Those first couple hands were gross and looked like what I’ve been going through lately. Calling wrong, folding wrong… but I’m sure you will get it back!
Rough session. Poker is such a mind****. Regarding the KK hand, when you donk/block bet into him and he raises massively, what else could he possibly have here? Is he jamming J9? Isn't he scared of AJ? Same with lower sets, with 2 straights out there. Without a super specific player read, this is just always AJ and a *sigh* fold IMHO
On the KK hand I think I would snap it off. If he turned a straight, and his opponent is betting into him, I would think he would continue to let you fire and raise the river. If he raises the turn he’s risking you folding and he doesn’t realize max value. I’d say he’s either got a pair with a jack to block the straight, two pair, or a smaller set
What’s up Lex! The last two month I have been on the heater of all heaters but the last two sessions has been completely opposite. I have been getting my money in good but been getting sucked out on. How do you deal with stuff like that. I know it going to happen but it been crazy! Had poker A’s crack by 10-2 of spades when I went all- in Preflop. I play 2-5 so people don’t usually call off their 1000 dollar stack on hands like that. Keep make the videos buddy
the pocket QQ hand vs AK, my thoughts on the turn were that he wouldn't bet that sizing with made hands(full house) considering the pot was big enough to bet 2 streets for 80% turn and pot river, also there are bluffs like 78 spade and 89 spade that would see flop and try to steal it on a board that doesn't favor you, then continue when backdoor equity comes in. The sick part, as you said, is that you see rarely see bluffs with this kind of line, all those memories come back to haunt you :( i commend the discipline, i think if you make the call 100% against population it's a losing call. got to pick your battles, mix it up and hope for the best ! gl on the felt
Check the KK hand on the river, he is already showing too much strength on turn, you should be satisfied with amount of chips in the pot. Look to check call the river depending on the sizing
QQ was a fold especially with a J on the river. That time he was bluffing, but many times not especially after taking the same line previously with the nuts.
That last hand I put the villain on AK. I didn’t buy his line at all, 1500 into 1300 on the turn? He used that image from the straight hand to steal one from ya! Keep up the grind Lex, you do great!
With KK, and Villain raises you on both Turn and River,,,, He has the nuts! EZ Fold. Let us know when you are coming to Tampa Next! Would love to meet up.
The queens hand was brutal when someone else used a kill button. Ugh that was tough to see - I know it’s useful information but man did that hurt to see.
Villian is going to heavily matter but im usually just sigh calling the KK hand. Idk maybe not i dont think theyre shoving KQ and only sometimes maybe all other sets but i probably cant fold there unless i know villian is jamming anything but nuts whoch i actually see a lot cause i play 1/3
Went and played 1/2 at Dania today. Built up my 100 stack up to over 400. New person sits down and raises ahead of me. I have pp aces I reraise to 65. They call. I bet 100 on flop and they go all in. It's only 120 to call. They flopped a set. The pot was about 600 in 1/2 and I got no help on turn and river. Then later on same person finished the job when I got a flush with open ended straight flush draw going to river I get my money in and she has a bigger flush.
Taking a new car through the car wash, or any car through the wash is horrible for the paint. I’d look for a car detailer local to you and have them detail it. Full job the first time-interior,exterior, nice paint correction and a wax or ceramic coating. Then have them do a maintenance wash every month maybe. It will cost more but you will see the difference for sure
First of all i like your insights and how it is educational while you are playing. This might seem a bit off topic but why did you decide to get a Audi? Don't get me wrong, in the end you have to be happy but i can tell you that german cars are nothing but plastic trash in this time; the motor might be ok, but everything else will fall apart 80k + km; the only kind of quality car that germans put out these days is Porsche. That said i drove BMW, Mercedes and Audi as business / private cars but ended up being now happy with a Lexus. Anyway i wish you all the best with your car!
4:03 in, you have a set of Kings. Only 2 hands beat you. I have to call. I don't have any live reads, I don't have any player history, so I don't have any 'feelings' that can override the pure math. If he's got J9 or AJ, then "oh well"
I probably Grumble, Grumble Call with KK , K and get shown the bad news. Unless the Villan is a Super Nit and only raises with the absolute nuts. But at these stakes I would imagine there are not a lot of those kinds of players.
Id have called it down. Its early in the session, not the time to let yourself get bullied. Although, with such a polarized board and no flush draw, I'd have jammed the turn. BUT I know I would miss out on max value in the situation you're in, so hopefully you got it...
With the KK hand I don’t mind the donk river line, but that’s only a line you really should take it you’re going to bet/fold. You give up EV from the few bluffs he would fire on the river in exchange for getting value from hands he might check back. Just exploitatively, this is never a bluff from villain and you need to be able to find the fold with KK here
Exactly what I was thinking. Hard to lay down top set, but if you take that line and get jammed on, you’re likely beat.
Yea that’s actually a great point
Was that the hand where the flop was pretty good for queens? lol
Plot twist: the villain with AJ was his dad
✅
4:22 That’s a nice way to give the dealer your chips! Good looks Lex👍🏼
What do you expect from a dude who tilts after he looses one hand 😂
@@mattpitstick6884loses moron not looses
I couldn't imagine the stress of having to win to eat.
The lead out on the river with $550 should have been a fold cause that was the point of leading out to see his line.
I was saying that I would have check the river, and not lead out, I a play PLO more than NLH so im always aware of people might having the nuts there, all in for 2k on river, is screaming I have the nuts
I work in the car business. Your new car is nice but, that type of car wash is going to put swirl marks in your paint. FYI
Lex iv'e had he worse 3 months of my life recently at the tables. im sooooo damn frustrated and I know you are as well, but just remember.... you're down not out. Keep playing and making videos We all love em buddy. cheers from Texas!!!
What a brutal start to the game, you did well to pull back. Keep making the videos, I love your style of play.
You need a touchless car wash. That black paint is gonna show all the scratches from that car wash unless it’s paint protected
I wouldn’t take any car through anything but touchless. You never know what’s in those brushes.
You think he would’ve known this .. brand new audi
Touch less is the best way to on when I have a new car. U are gonna get swirl marks on ur paint.
Lex great video! I see those calluses on your hands from lifting haha I’ve been watching you for a long time a learning a lot. I appreciate you thanks!
I'd probably call despite knowing I should not.
Solid live read on the tilt-a-whirl. Good bet and call.
Man the ace king bluff from the passing villian was brutal, based off the action I was convinced he had 10 10 or 5 5
Some players will bluff big if they see someone is losing. But how can we know
Same here
You don’t see other vloggers showing the real side of poker. I appreciate the realness.
Yes you do.
See it all the time! Lol
Those first 3 spots were absolutely brutal. Glad you were able to claw back.
The car wash people always forget to clean the sunroof glass. Lol GL friend
How does fold the river on the QQ vs AK hand after calling 1.5K on turn when rivers is only 2.5K. lex needs a break or something....
I had the same thought. Pot odds are a thing.
You had the second nuts on the Jack of clubs hand. Surprised you didn’t lead out knowing he was strong
Hey Lex very tilting game but I’m sure you will get that back and more because you are a good player, it could have been a lot worse, golf is a good way to unwind keep up the good work
With the KK I think fold is best, it feels too strong guess he's raised with it on the turn for value and protection as well
5:30 For whatever it's worth, Lex, I needed that. Sort of feel the universe is conspiring against me atm as well. Stay strong, brother!
Hey lex, have you ever played at the Hialeah Park Casino? If you have, what did you think? Do you think Magic city casino has better action?
BRO! NEVER take your car through those car washes. They DESTROY your paint. Hand wash only.
I was looking for this comment. Only use the touchless car washes, especially with a black car!!
Do they let you film Lex or do you have to “sneak it”?
Shouldn’t check the river with the Jack high flush, gotta go for value with second nuts
Dang man, big cooler on the first big hand. Rough day, but way to fight back
Oh no don’t take your beautiful brand new A3 through a car wash it will scratch the heck out of your paint! Coming from a vlog fan and proud S5 owner! 🤙

Mr. Lex...
You are one of my favorite Poker player of all time for me personally !!!
Your fan.....
River Rat 🐀
What did the car have to do with the vlog?
Lex.! Don’t run that Beautiful car though that car wash! You must hand wash it or it will be full of swirls. By the way I’m a buddy of Dave’s in Vegas. Thanks for the vids!
Lex that’s a rough session for sure I’d be super tilted too. Also never ever go to a car wash like that. Only hand wash. RIP to your paint.
Defintely hand wash only Or get ceramic coating
Lex, the bristles on those auto wash tunnels will scratch your car's finish. It will be annoyingly visible over time. Find a hand carwash or a mobile service.
The QQ is nasty nasty. That Jack on the river killed everything. If a 2 comes out you can justify a call, but that J was a dagger, I would of most likely folded as well.
You should call with pocket Queens only have $2500 left. That would be a great comeback for you.
Is that pine island and broward at the end? You live right by me lol.
Was that stack not dirty with KK hand?
Hey Lex, I always watch you vlog. All your vlog are very interesting. I just want to comment on your play with KK hand. If I were you I will check on the River and call. He already raised you on the turn. He might not put you all in and you might have saved some chip. Also the QQ hand I will never fold the hand like that. If he got me. he got me.

How often do you get a kill button in this game?
Those first couple hands were gross and looked like what I’ve been going through lately. Calling wrong, folding wrong… but I’m sure you will get it back!
what a fish
You tell it like it really is. Keep going
Rough session. Poker is such a mind****. Regarding the KK hand, when you donk/block bet into him and he raises massively, what else could he possibly have here? Is he jamming J9? Isn't he scared of AJ? Same with lower sets, with 2 straights out there.

Was it hard getting a loan on the A3 without a W2 ?
What’s up Lex! The last two month I have been on the heater of all heaters but the last two sessions has been completely opposite. I have been getting my money in good but been getting sucked out on. How do you deal with stuff like that. I know it going to happen but it been crazy! Had poker A’s crack by 10-2 of spades when I went all- in Preflop.

vlogging and driving... SMART

Check the KK hand on the river, he is already showing too much strength on turn, you should be satisfied with amount of chips in the pot. Look to check call the river depending on the sizing
I could not fold the set of kings either. Too strong.
Queens should call by the case he called with the hand Kings
QQ was a fold especially with a J on the river. That time he was bluffing, but many times not especially after taking the same line previously with the nuts.
well done Lex O
That last hand I put the villain on AK. I didn’t buy his line at all, 1500 into 1300 on the turn? He used that image from the straight hand to steal one from ya! Keep up the grind Lex, you do great!
I think being consistent with your line and hero folding is the best play.
Might want to go down a level
#facts
KK was an EASY FOLD. QQ was a CALL 💯
With KK, and Villain raises you on both Turn and River,,,, He has the nuts! EZ Fold. Let us know when you are coming to Tampa Next! Would love to meet up.
Great session.
Glad to see you made some water come back. You had the cards. It just didn’t work out today. But your time is coming.
The queens hand was brutal when someone else used a kill button. Ugh that was tough to see - I know it’s useful information but man did that hurt to see.
The KK hand the river bet was really good at that point if he jams all in you are beat a 100% of the time no body is gonna try to bluff you there
Villian is going to heavily matter but im usually just sigh calling the KK hand. Idk maybe not i dont think theyre shoving KQ and only sometimes maybe all other sets but i probably cant fold there unless i know villian is jamming anything but nuts whoch i actually see a lot cause i play 1/3
wrt to the set of kings I think it depends on the player i like either bet fold on the river or check call. I hated bet call.
and I think check call is optimal.
holy shit thats mega tilti with those qq
omg that bluff on the pocket QQ even had me tilted. stay away from this place lex, F that!
Those car washes will most likely damage your paint. Find a mobile detailer to hand wash it on a regular basis
Lol what is car payment? 1k?
Hahahahaha i love watching Lex get wrecked
Nice car fish
Hey Lex! Why don't u show us a resume of your bankroll or something? So we can follow your results monthly :)
Love your way to play poker!
Was that a string bet for $125 at 5:05? Not a hater, just notice the little things
Went and played 1/2 at Dania today. Built up my 100 stack up to over 400. New person sits down and raises ahead of me. I have pp aces I reraise to 65. They call. I bet 100 on flop and they go all in. It's only 120 to call. They flopped a set. The pot was about 600 in 1/2 and I got no help on turn and river. Then later on same person finished the job when I got a flush with open ended straight flush draw going to river I get my money in and she has a bigger flush.
Avoid those kind of drive through car washes. They decimate paint
Oh fuck Lex, that hand at 9:10. So brutal.
Tough day at the office there. With QQ hand, if im calling a big bet on the turn. Then I'm calling the river. Still enjoy ur videos
Not really sure why anyone would ever buy a black automobile in Florida, I do love you videos and think you should trust your instincts more!
Taking a new car through the car wash, or any car through the wash is horrible for the paint. I’d look for a car detailer local to you and have them detail it. Full job the first time-interior,exterior, nice paint correction and a wax or ceramic coating. Then have them do a maintenance wash every month maybe. It will cost more but you will see the difference for sure
Noooooooo!! Why would you take that new paint through the brushes?!?!?! RIP paint job ,:(
First of all i like your insights and how it is educational while you are playing.
This might seem a bit off topic but why did you decide to get a Audi? Don't get me wrong, in the end you have to be happy but i can tell you that german cars are nothing but plastic trash in this time; the motor might be ok, but everything else will fall apart 80k + km; the only kind of quality car that germans put out these days is Porsche.

Anyway i wish you all the best with your car!
LETS GOOOOOOOOO love the vids
I was screaming fold on that KK vs AJ hand - unless the player is solid and capable, no one is ever raising turn and river without the goods.
There wasn't really a bluff there. He's only going to call with J 9, I think the AJ was obvious in that situation.
4:03 in, you have a set of Kings. Only 2 hands beat you. I have to call. I don't have any live reads, I don't have any player history, so I don't have any 'feelings' that can override the pure math. If he's got J9 or AJ, then "oh well"
The line on a river bet raise with the set of K is strong, i will go with the plan of folding if I get raise as planned.
for sure, calling the shove was an obvious mistake. almost zero bluffs there.
On KK, you gotta stick to your plan man
Just blows a stop sign at the start of the video
Puke-call with set of Kings.
Imo river is either a check/call or a bet/fold. Not a huge fan of the bet/call.
Doug Polk says to never fold a set, so that was probably a good call
I probably Grumble, Grumble Call with KK , K and get shown the bad news. Unless the Villan is a Super Nit and only raises with the absolute nuts. But at these stakes I would imagine there are not a lot of those kinds of players.
Jam All In
@lexopoker if you didn't ceramic coat that ride.... you're gonna ruin your paint on that brand new vehicle going thru those car washes! 😮
Not sure what donking the river accomplishes in the KK hand. Just check call you could’ve saved your stack maybe.
It was a bluff when the board paired and the opponent over bet the pot. He could have 78 of spades , lots of bluffs. Anyways good luck at the table.
I folded in a similar situation about three weeks ago. Still wake up thinking about it.
I think you had to fold the QQ hand where you got bluffed. There were so many hands that had you beat.
Also wash your own car!
Yeah, u let it all get to u, I think normally u would have called him with those QQ all day, it happens, get'em next time😁
Not hero folding... If he has it, he has it.
Id have called it down. Its early in the session, not the time to let yourself get bullied. Although, with such a polarized board and no flush draw, I'd have jammed the turn. BUT I know I would miss out on max value in the situation you're in, so hopefully you got it...
Hero fold....when he raises so much in turn....Strait is there ....but also, so dificult to fold trips of kkk
GOD DAMNIT LEX- a brand new audi belongs in a touchfree wash not a brush wash -_-
