The Lodge Card Club is a members-only social club in Round Rock, Texas (just north of Austin). With 24/7 cash games and 2+ tournaments per day, The Lodge is THE place to play poker in central Texas. The Lodge Live is streamed every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday at 3PM CT.
You never know what you might see on The Lodge Live stream. You might see Pocket Aces vs Pocket Kings. You may see the nut straight lose to a full house after the board pairs on the river. There's a good chance you will see loads of straddles (and double straddles, and triple straddles). Players go all-in blind or play poker hands after looking at just one card. That's just what poker is like in Texas!
The stream regularly features Lodge owners Brad Owen, Andrew Neeme, and Doug Polk. Players like Rampage, Mariano, and Igor Kurganov has also graced The Lodge Live felt. And who knows? One day The Lodge may even host players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, or similarly huge poker names.

I love the composure of Alex. You NEVER celebrate a big win when someone just got crushed. You put your chips in the middle, let the dealer sort it out, and start stacking. Don't fist pump or get loud, just stack the chips and move on. Someone just lost a big pot, be grateful you won, and show some humility while they contemplate the loss.

@erikdominguez6531 4 ай бұрын

When Alex is unsure about the strength of his hand he stares profoundly into his opponent giving them an angry look.However, when Alex has the nuts he only does a quick stare onto his opponents and preferring to look at the board instead. It doesn't matter if he always takes long in both situations by touching his chips and doing chip inventory. When he has it, he doesn't stare as much into his opponents when he doesn't he spends almost a good minute looking into them.

Its fair to say at this point, Dougs reliance on solvers and high variance play in full ring games is a massive losing strategy. Its not headsup , not every player cares how you play every hand, he is not banking ev. From what ive seen of this Alex character, he hates folding, is a ego player and is the last guy ya wanna run an insane bluff against. This hand was a mega punt in particular.
