SNEAKING INTO a CASINO to play $1/3 No Limit | Poker Vlog #22

This is outstanding! Doug now and Cal back to back.

Congrats on crushing that sub goal! Here's to 10k

Love your vlogs NorCal! Seems like you played these hands pretty well, just really bad luck to have a good hand like trip 7’s and know it’s a loser. I look forward to your vlogs every week, one of my favorites!

Love that pete weber clip. Played the last 2 nights with good results. Keep it up man.

good content here. A lot of these plays are ones I wish I had the mental strength to make more often. I agree with just about every play here

Love how many hands you show in your videos!

I'm heading to Graton on 27th, hopefully will see you there !!

Lol i woulda called against the j10 fullhiuse though too so you kickin ass lol

Graton? Cache creek? Have I missed why you always leave at 2:00? As then graton is probably out as a choose as the commute time would cut into playing time.

Good luck in that room! There's probably a decent chance that the suits will be on to you now so you might want to amp up your disguise a notch

You make some Nitty folds, that said it seems like you’re right to do so. Idk tho. Mucking those QQ with J high, then the set with a street to go was a tough one…

Did you only play a total of 6 hrs in the week or these are just the hours that you logged?

Thanks love your vids

SoCal? Shrewd… 😂 How did you film? You inspired this MTT player to hop into the cash streets! 🙏🏼

Love the vlogs. Kings fan or no? Just curious. Hope to play with you one day. I can def. Learn a lot.

What advice would you give to an online player looking to jump into the softer live cash games?

Thanks for showing, at least attempting, to show some action at TV. It's probably not much of an issue for the Poker Room itself, but I'd guess Tribal is what really holds back most filming opportunities. Graton seems more willing to allow some filming. Locally, Limelight's occasional 1/3 game has a home game feel with plenty of bomb pot double board PLO degeneracy.

man, that place is my current stomping ground. great action, fun tables. on some good nights, even the 1-2 is a good game!

Someone already said it but check out the California Grand in Pacheco, Its just over the Benica bridge from where you're at. I play there when I'm in the bay, it's about 10 minutes from my mom's house. Get there early because the tables will fill up fast. The action is similar to capitol purely based on what I have seen on your channel.

Finally a honest blog. Not the we win almost always types around here.

It's not California (I'm local, Carmichael), but the Peppermill in Reno is a great poker destination. Maybe not this run but at 2.5 hours drive is not that far away either. For some new scenery, maybe. Is say it's a little better than Thunder Valley. TV got the big tournament series though which can't be beat until you hit LA.

I'm interested in knowing whether you put aside money to play poker with or have built up a bankroll? I would understand not getting an answer as it's a very personal question but if you have built up a br then 30 buyins at your stakes would be c. $30,000. Did that come from online poker? :)

Lucky Chances and M8trix would be great to see you vlog

Solid folds solid play despite the results!

how far is capitol from Bakersfield

Love the PDW clip 😂 Who do you think you are? I am!

Bay 101 or lucky chances. Miss the bay moved away last summer after 45 years lol.

Can you play at Oaks card club in Emeryville?

so with the pocket sevens hand, this is a tough spot. but lets ask some questions. what hand does our opponent most likely doesnt have? that would be a flush because why push u off the hand and lose money unless its a small flush. but in this case, alot of players will semi raise on this board with a flush draw because it probaly favors them more than you. the obvious hand would seem to be a straight here but shoving makes no sense either for the same reason and a straight would want to see the river to make sure he has a chance. the hand i think your opponent had was a set of red sixes. i can see this hand limping in and calling a bet on the turn. of course a shove would make sense on this board giving the flush draw to where you could easily have king or ace of clubs. the same logic for him having two pair here on the turn. so with that being said, it would be a gamble giving u dont have a good price but u do have top set and full house outs and two hands that beat you which i dont think would play this way. so i would have called even though its sucks!

You should Vlog from Stones and for a few select moments, record with your cell phone in your lap.

I want to see you film a vlog at Stones!

Snap fold, you did right. Over long term, just doesnt make sense when flush is there, straight is there. Find a better spot, great exploit fold

Who do you think you are? I am! The last time I was at TV I was able to pick up 5 reds by just picking up the top chip. Your chips look so clean in comparison.

I can’t help but think that you’re over folding too much. The QQ hand you had to put in $150 win $680. You only need to be good on that call about 1 in 5 times to be profitable. I know you said the player was straight forward but still something to think about. A call there may have given you a break even session or close to it.

You should try California grand 2 5 game is good action.

I would definitely call the 7’s hand

nice fold with 7/7

Wouldn't mind seeing what Harvey's in S.Tahoe is like nowadays.

Snap call with trip 7's very odd to way over bet jam seems more like a lower set or a lot of pair and straight draws / flush draws or 2 pairs, beating way too many hands plus 10 outs if he has flush, sorry to say but scared money can't win. However folding is not the worst thing only losing $45.

Damn is everyone at the table short stacked

U definitely should have called with top 7 set he made a move cause he had position

3-betting q-k off out of position to 4x is crazy

lucky chances in sf

I’m surprised TV would let you chip up over $400. 77 hand is player dependent, but that size overbet with a flush is very odd. My guess is your hand was best, but it’s just a guess 🤷

FYI they'll likely tell you to pull it down or else they'll ban you from the casino.

Im never folding top set even if the front flush came, definitely not at Capitol. Bunch of reg donks at that casino. I miss playing theregetting paid by a bunch of amateurs.

Matrix casino has a 1/2/3 game

Definitely should have min clicked with that set of duces! They probably would have thought weakness an definite call an maybe air makes a move. Especially after folding the trip 7s I would have been tilted an wanted to milk the twos for all I could, I might have even called to keep bluffs in an hope they hit two pair on river an raise then

Is that how you actually talk ? Or is it a blogging way of talking ?

I live like 10 minutes from there

id probably call there and leave if i lost

How do u fold QQ for 150 more to win 580 600 you where a head that was a horrible fold.

By the way Freebet blackjack is absolutely the worst variant of blackjack. Play some S17 3:2. You’re doing far better against the house

12:30 … how in the f would a queen have helped him on this board

6 minutes, A 3, snap call. Big Blind is just getting out of line. What 5s are in his range? A 5? He's on a diamond draw, you're a favorite. Take your equity and ship it.

The set of 7s was 100% not good.

Terrible fish fry

Chances are you laid down the best hand with the Top Set (77s) because usually if they have the flush there at the turn they kinda still want some action rather than trying to force you out by betting 3/4 pot. With that sizing it usually means they are trying to rep the the flush but actually do NOT want to see a river and protecting their hand more or less with that sizing most likely turning two pair, pair with the Ace of Clubs, etc... I recall a similar spot years ago in. a 5-10 game when I got top set to lay down on the flop as well ironically with him having 7s as well on a flop that was [5-6-7 rainbow]. It was 3 bet call 3 handed preflop and then after that flop it was a check (me), bet (QQs), raise (77s) & me check-raising All-in which prompted the QQs to snap-fold and then eventually top set also to fold because he gave me credit for the flopped joint... My hand was.. you guessed it 5/6 suited ;-))) Believe it or not I thought I was good putting both players on over pairs, until he revealed his hand (77) and then I couldn't breathe lol because that was my entire stack ($1500+) and I was drawing DEAD... Wow I could not believe he decided to lay down his hand after 2 minutes... The irony is you will not believe the run-out as they rabbit hunted as it was a 5 on the turn and a Q on the river... Wow the QQs player woulda scooped everything if I slow played the hand haha!!! Btw, I never showed or reveled my handI as I just said "Good Lay Down..." lolzzz

I've never played at capitol or against that player, but the set of 7s folding was the play i would have made. I'll give him that $45 but i'd make the rest of his day hell playing behind him. p.s. he was full of shit about the queen being exposed.

Sneaking into a casino?
