Cease and desist from playing A/9 off suit...from any position, lol! Also, I just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you put into making these videos; by now I've become familiar with the fact that filming, editing footage, taking notes on each hand, etc as a poker vlogger is a very time consuming process so kudos to you, sir, for such a well done job! Keep em coming every Sunday!

I think your bluffs are off because you bluff in some wrong spots. Can’t check check and bluff river. You will get called most of the time.

What about adding a category for good players, crushers, and wizards? I play in a terrific 1/3 game and the player pool is very wide. But there are several very competent players--I would think your fellow vlogger, Doug, would be one of the competent ones. How about adding a "Doug" category? Great vlog and hope you start to run better.

Great vlog! I’m looking forward to the next one!

Nice candid vlog. Appreciate it

I enjoy your vlog and appreciate your transparency. Time for variance to give way to an upswing.

it's pretty simple, you have: Nits - narrow range, only raises JJ+, zero bluffs Stations - wide range, chases draws, loves to see flops Maniacs - any two will do, likes to build big pots and make big bluffs Crushers - flexible range, optimal bet sizing, exploits opponents' weaknesses, table changes when necessary

Glad you got your dog a nice couch! Might need to get him a buddy to share it with lol. A couple thoughts; on your J9 hand after your 3bet, I think you kinda played your hand face up. Against that opponent it probably wouldn't matter but if you had a missed AK you would probably downbet to $40 after 3betting to $45. If you play your made hands the same way you play your missed hands (especially on the flop) you'll look polarizing to opponents and be tougher to play against. On your A2 of spades flush, I think you could've bet larger when you made your flush. The opponent had nothing this time, so no matter what you did you weren't getting paid but when the opponent does make a flush you want max value. How many times have you seen opponents fold even a 5 high flush? I feel like they're almost never folding that. Also, some opponents will even call a large bet with like QJo type hand with 1 spade. Great content and love the vlog! Looking forward to seeing you crush your end of year goal!

Love your vlogs man! I play in a small 1/3 game in southern indiana. The last couple weeks have been brutal for me. Heres to July! 😂

I understand some of your play, but some of your cbets are abit off. Like KQ on A52 multiway is just pure check. Even heads up like CO vs BB, good Kx usually checks here, since not much worse folds to a bet and Bb has all suited Ax. Also when you 3b QQ and get 4b clicked to 120, i think jamming is the worst option. I think you could make an argument for folding even, since the 4b click is just so nutted in low stakes. At best, you are against AK, since they are never/ever/ever finding the bluff here with like A5s/ATs/KQs etc. All in all nice play and good results! I might have to hop in the GG game 😂

When you flopped two pairs and you betted he had nothing on the flop with J7❤??? Went runner runner❤ that's a horrible bad beat that's a loose player It's like that at the gardens casino in LA too many reckless players

Great stuff! So.... which are you? :) Crazy? can't be Regular .... I guess I'm between Crazy and Overplayer and mixing in more safe,for my own benefit ;)

QQ is a fold facing a 4 bet, especially in low stakes. Their range is AA, KK, and AK - a flip or getting crushed.

Yessszz love the videos

As a person who is also on a downswing currently constantly getting out flopped or rivered, what are you best points of advice for recovering/keeping your head up?

which app do you use that breaks down the monthly results? i use poker bankroll tracker but it doesnt have a breakdown by month like what you're showing in the end of the video

Ahahhahhah Key and Peele "Substitute Teacher" scene ... 😂😂😂

Hello, fellow Sacramento based poker content creator! I love the vlog!

Hi, I'm new to your channel. Thanks for your content. How do you classify players like me that don't fit your color scheme? I am a semi tight to semi moderate tightness to looseness ratio, about a 24% VPIP, and see the flop about 26,27% of time in sit n go's, tournaments, cash games. I am semi aggressive, and bluff about 7 to 17 to 33% of the time, depending on situation(1 time I went all in every 2,3,4 hands no matter what I had preflop, because nobody at table called unless had AA. Went on to win that 115 person $50 buy in tournament for a $900 win)(was at a tribal casino). My playstyle, etc, is I play positional poker, and a mix of exploitative, and GTO mix, combination, into 1 method, style. I cbet about 49% to 67% of time depending on situation, game, tournament, position, table, player, skill edge, stack sizes, etc. I am a semi winning, semi poker shark, etc, player. Have been playing since about 2005, for about 17,18,19 years both at Brick and mortar casinos, and online. Offline I have cashed about 115 to 125 to 135 out of about 300 tournaments, and cash about 36% of sit n go's, tournaments, etc, and have about a 19% ROI in tournaments, sit n go's, cash games, etc, both online, offline, etc. I have read, studied, applied, learned from my poker coach, mentor, Harrington on Hold Em, Super System by Doyle, Full Tilt Tournament green book by Chris Ferguson, Helmuth's poker book, skalansky's poker book, Full Tilt poker academy, Upswing Poker, J Little's Poker coaching academy, 2+2 poker forums, Bart Hanson at Crush Live Poker, Nathan Blackrain Poker videos, Doug Polk videos, Poker Profit Vlog, numerous poker blogs, experience, etc. So if someone like me was at your table, how would you label them?(I"m often mislabeled by everybody at the tables in some form) I think you need to come up with a color for a poker shark, winning player, etc, as I don't think your color scheme accounts for players like me, sharks, winning players, etc. As for how you did, I agree with you, that you need to widen, expand your ranges, work on your bet sizing, make more multi purpose bets that make draws pay too much, extracts value, turn hands into semi bluffs, protects hands from draws, etc, that bigger bets, about 3/5 to 2/3 to 3/4 to 4/5 to pot to 1.5 pot to double pot to all in, etc, depending on situation, etc. I do think you need to bluff more, and when bluff, pick better spots(altho sometimes you probably do bluff in good spots, and just keep running into buzz saws), and need to Tilt less, and know when to quit, etc. Hope that helps you, others. Thanks again for your content. Hang in there, and good luck, etc.

me rec player, trying to get away from the bad habit of overplaying my hands. how would you categorize your play from the hands you played in this vlog?

A9o BU: I'm not sure about the cbet here. This flop is going to be hit by villain a lot, with pairs, straight and flush draws. You think villain would bet tiny with his nuts and overbet with bluffs? 1. Not many players overbet. 2. That strategy seems backwards, since you are not folding your good hands to overbets and your marginal and trash hands will fold to just about any bet. J9s: "SB should always be 3bet or fold" - unless BB is terrible and calls wide. KK: Not much you can do so mw. 86ss: You are much more likely to get called on the flop, somewhat less likely to get called on the turn than on the flop. I just bet early hoping overcards, pp, draws call. QTo: "Seemed a little small for a mw pot" - bets SHOULD be smaller in mw pots. "With this small sizing out opponent is saying he has a weak top pair or an absolute monster." Those two hand types should have completely different bet sizing. Truthfully, a weak top pair should be checking this turn a lot. A2dd: You're going to be easy to play against. Your bet sizes are governed by the strength of your hand. Just bet the turn big. There's a possible flush draw and the T brings a straight draw. You could have either of those hands too. Just bet everything large and make people guess whether you are strong or weak. 85 is way too small. With only 340 to start, I'd just jam turn.

Hey what app are you using to track all that? You're a good player man. Noone plays perfect.

Quick question- what app are you using to track your results?

Won't make you feel any better, but I started strong in January and faded some in May and June. Currently running + $11.50 per hour. Unless I have an unexpected run, I also will miss my goal of a yearly profit of $12k.

what’s your overall opinion of Stones?

These are my exact sessions

1bb / hour = not bad. Winning!

my son turned me on to ur site. so as kurt said... "here we are now, entertain us!" ✌🏻👽

A fellow Nor-Cal here...Sub'd

Sounds like the way I ran!!

If i download telegram i can PLAY in GG?

Very tight table

I play tournaments for fun. Poker cash games have all the players you described but what about the ones that are decent and have unlimited bankrolls. I have seen guys drop 2K and just keep buying in. You get pocket AA and the board come 7 2 and they bet you all in. You lose every time. I know that is poker but I do not want to play against people with so much money they can run over the table. So I do not get involved in these type of games.

Identifying does no good playing against me cause Im constantly changing my style and plays LoL

What color are you?

You lied to me and said you would play A2 suited “blood diamonds” next vlog! 😂

If anyone in the room (or the building) wants to know the time, they can just look in the direction of your table mate. Jesus, I've never seen a watch face that large.

12:13 isn't that what you want, is to be called by worse?

Idiot sandwich skit cracked me up 😂

Bro ur missing one more player type: pro. Low stakes pros like me do exist. Its rare but we exist. Edit: also another one: Nit.

This is why we play Capitol Casino. Thunder and Stones is shite for action.

Marked card @ 8:38?

Pocket Kings are the new Pocket Jacks 💩

I always go after the REGULAR players. 60% of the time I'll make money 💰 off of them !!! Your fan... River Rat 🐀

You lost me when you played A - 9 off suit
