I mean, I kinda care about the bridge..

Two years later: Mariano: Hey guys, this is a short film by Mariano. I was in the largest pot of my life yesterday, played against Elon Musk. I went all in building a 50 billion dollar pot, we agreed to run it twice, my ace high held against his 42o. So I own Twitter now.

Vamos Mariano!! Eres un jefe, sigue con la buena suerte porque la mereces

Love your content Mariano!!! It's amazing how much you've grown

Hell of a way to start the year! As always I love the video! You are definitely my favorite to watch on poker vlogs! I know you can’t keep up what you did in the last few days but I hope that your year continues to be a good one!

Happy New Year Mariano. Impressive watching you grow into a crusher. Great 2022 results

Happy New Year 🎉!! Enjoy your ride up. Keep it going Mariano. All the best

always enjoy your play by play break downs man, and its nice to see that sometimes you do make the fold like a mere mortal after watching you call light in some unbelievable spots so many times! Cheers brother, Thanks again!

I start watching you videos in December and are very useful to learn cash games. Super start of the year! Goodluck!

Good stuff man, love your personality and videos

Fantastic start for a new year. It would be great to see Garrett show up to your game.

Hi Mariano Happy New Year. 💘 ur short films and the music u play, Bridge cool. Always good luck in poker and life.

I’m thankful mariano would never call me a nit in his videos

Very nice start to the year. Keep it going. I grew up in the Torrance/Gardena area. My uncles played at Hustler. Glad you are living in the OC . Have a great year Mariano!😊

Great stuff man glad to see it, always be careful don't allow yourself to lose all in one night and your good julio!!

Great stuff as always! Think the AK hand is just a call on the river as nitty as it seems. Think anything that check raises turn that can call a river raise is beating you on that board. Especially a tighter player. Congrats on the great year and huge win. All the best

Wonderful short film and great intro🤙🏼

Never enough attention can be brought to pedestrian bridges, so thank you for highlighting this one! Fun video as always, you communicate your complex thought processes understandably.

Enjoyed the content as always. Bridge included! Fun watching you kill it.

Keep it up !! I appreciate the video!

Been watching you since the 1/2 1/3 days. Amazing journey you been on. Inspiring to say the least. I'm 28 with a family and full-time job but 2023 I WILL be taking poker seriously as a secondary income due to my love of the game. Hopefully, one day I'll be able to stop punching that time clock and play for a living. GGs...side note. I IMed you on IG, there has been a fake account posing as you.

Love some fresh Mariano content

That is absolutely awesome. Congratulations on your grind reward.

Good for you bro, good start for the new year.

Way to go man!

Great start, congratulations

I start 2 months ago playing poker full time and let me say watching your videos helps me really think sometimes and make tuff fold when I shouldn’t and they are the correct folds. It’s amazing how much you analyzed hands and people think you are Hollywooding but that’s not the case

I can’t believe I couldn’t watch this at work today. Appreciate all the hard work

Ok... "I see you" fam! 🤗 You got there a few times, great session. Happy new year 🤑

Great job brother iam truly inspired by you and Rampage, hope you both lots of luck,... and maybe one day I'll see u both at the main table 😀

You really are putting out some great content lately and your style of play is extremely hard for your opponents to put you on a hand keep it up 👍

Congrats mate. That’s huge!

Great session! The bridge is cool. I happen to really dig the background music towards the end. Just wanted to share that.

I'm a civil engineer and I'm very much interested in that bridge.

Happy new year Mariano #LFG 😊

You truly are living the life I'd prefer. Watching your videos keeps the dream alive. Thank you

Awesome hit for the New Year Mariano. Keep it going. Now you can tell that lady who keeps saying to you to bring back double the chips, you did lol.

I wanted to sleep it’s 11.06pm here in Perth, Australia but this comes in! Fingers crossed Mariano….

You work hard bro you deserve the success you’re having! These are easily the best NL games in the country.

Really enjoy hearing what your thoughts are, even when the hold cards are showing contrary to what they have. We learn more from our mistakes than our victories.

I was watching your previous videos since you hadn’t posted for 10 days and here it is.

Congrats !!!

I just finished your last 150 vlogs. The anticipation for new content is real! Thank you for this incredible blog that is both entertaining and educational.

Congratulations on the fantastic start to 2023 🎉

Great start.

Great play again !! Really happy with that 54.....goot youre money back...with the ak against set 2.... Every day better !!! Enjoy all your videos

You're still riding the run good train, gg

Thanks Mariano for a great video. I'm hung up on the all in against BB with your 2 pairs. I watched the replay on the Hustler video several times. Do you feel this should have been played more agresively from the start? Its a really good hand as you nearly pulled it off at the end. That's how it goes sometimes I guess. Glad to you see you came out on top at the end. Keep it up!!!!

Your the man!!!!

Hola Marino, congratulations on your big pot, very happy and proud of you! Do I understand correctly that you compose your own music? Whether you do or not great stuff! Pura Vida from Costa Rica!

They have to live stream that Sunday game!

The way he thinks through every hand is incredible. This is what he was meant to do. Good luck this year man.

RIP Brown Balla ever calling him self LAG

Best of luck to you in new year

Great run to start of 2023! Im glad you said your being honest that your afraid with a check raise by Nick when you had JJJ 😅

He was value shoving 🤣. He 100% thought he had the nuts

That’s dope to see you at that bridge I used to fish underneath it. Ik sounds crazy because that river is usually dry but when it rains there’s carp in that river somehow

Interesting in the 22 vs AK hand that you think that he is a tight player and sometimes folds 22 and so you rule that out, yet you consider the possibility of him having some wacky two pair hands like K7, K2, 75?

Awesome and I remeber how you were wanting to make an A high call and win and wow 🎉awesome and I bet super fun

I heard about this. Glad to see it.

Awesome!!

Been watching this kid since low stakes. Just shows what happens when you put in work! Super impressive. Good for him man. 👏

Great job

good job!

👑

Love the Bridge

I would just quit playing for the rest of the year so I could brag about that hourly at the end of the year. :P

Good one 😁

Watching Keri’s bluff on stream was 😱

“unless we were up against a hand like 54” 😂

I love your thoughts processed. You should have more faith in your spider senses. It's always entertaining to watch you play. Thank you

I'm looking at both boards👀 TF he snapped you off with Q 10?🤷🏾‍♂️😂 Only hand I could think of.

Enjoy the vlogs, Mariano! Any thought to taking the rest of the year off and living on an island with your girl? Ha, ha!

Okay, you redeemed yourself with the bridge b-roll. All is forgiven. Honestly, if a vlogger shows me something cool that's non-poker, I'm down. Remember all the dive bars that Neeme took us to back in the day? 💜

Well done champ

I was at Hustler yesterday. Norman Chad was playing.

Share your blessing Mariano

Congratulations on the quarter of a million dollar win! Just hope those private games don’t bust you, 25-50 can get real active sucking that profit too quickly.

Sweet spot. Nice run to start 2023. Post a graph 😂

Mariano, do you ever have nights where you're card dead all night long? I feel like my last couple sessions I've only played like 4 hands because I just haven't gotten any playable hands. Curious what you do in these situations? We can't all Sun Run all the time, right?

Only way Ace high wins that hand is if Eric Parsons and Robbie were the other 2 players in the hand!

No love for nuttichi opening your cookie!?!? Love your vlog keep on crushing it

Continued run good in 2023!!

I like how you turned the AK over against the 22 with an expression of "sorry, I win"... 😅

That's insanely lucky, wtf did the other guy call with?! I guess AT ?? xD

Nice rebound. 🤑

Mariano is the main character in the poker anime.

congrats

Cool!

I care about bridges!!! Keep filming your gorgeous surroundings, Mariano….. those “bridges “ and all your surroundings offer texture to your videos 🍿🎈

What the hell did the villain have to call your AQo and not win either board with a K and J out there??

That’s a cool bridge tho

All these grown men with funny nick names and Mariano is just like “why?……tf is your name !?!!” 🤣

Nice!!!

Here’s this bridge. PRETTY SWEET.

Idea, get Nick and Ryan on board and stream the "Marianos game" on the tube bro!! Will bring you likes, subs and give the guys at HCL another game?? Just an idea!!

Dude sick first hand what did the other guy have? Winning with ace high on 2 boards for that much lol dang. Good shit

Great vlog and you’re my favourite poker content creator. That said, I found it odd to hear you say that the villain was a tight player so, pocket 2’s was unlikely in his range but then on the turn you seems to easily assigned K7 and K2 as a consideration of his range. Am I missing something? I get the value of big/little suited hands, but it seems like a bit of a contradiction in the players profile/range from flop to turn.

FYI - your audio is a bit scuffed at the end of the video

u r the best but that last hand against a scared flush when he checks the end u know yer good
