    Quite possibly, but I'm not sure. If I'm the opponent here, I'm putting Lex on 10's or Jacks due to the check on the Queen (especially after the Ace check). My gut tells me the $700 bet into a $1,000 pot, does not want to be called. An Ace would likely either bet pot+ (to polarise), or around $500 (to ensure getting called).

    First and foremost, I would look at some preflop RFI charts and really hone in your preflop ranges. Then comprise a solid 3 bet range. Cleaning up preflop play is the quickest and easiest way to improve your win rate. Think of it as building a house, your preflop hand selection is the foundation. You can't build a sturdy house without a solid foundation. Work on those things first, and then worry about more complex stuff IMO. Good luck on the felt bro

    Weird hand with the AK. You should pure 4bet it pre in SB vs BB spot. And river check seems bad too since you unblock hands like 99-JJ that’s gonna snap check back river. The only upside is that you have an A that’s blocks he’s check back range like AT AQ AJ, But somehow you got it right this time, in the long run this is not gonna be super profitable. But nice hand. I guess the euro pro was chocked to see you flat AK there vs he’s 3bet. 😂 The KK hand you could have made your life easier and just block bet barrel the turn with a big part of your range , there is no ev in checking here to induce bluffs and start bluff catching. Just block barrel and check rivers to see what he does next time is better.

    I don't understand the sizing of your raise on the river with AK in the thin value hand. If you think he's capped at 1 pair, raising to 3.4x looks pretty strong. I would have gone to $1250 or $1,300 to make the price too good for him to fold. $1,400 would probably be my max

    Hey Lex, What I don't see in your vlog is what happens to me (and every other solid poker player I know) quite often: running into sets & coolers with premium hands and big bluffs - and making bad calls. Are you immune? This particular "Thin Value" vlog pissed me off the most. Thin Value? Really? How often are you going to run into a set or cooler in that spot? A hell of a lot. I don't see you take many bad beats or get the wrong end of coolers in your vlogs. I play NLH everyday and every good player runs into sets and horrific bad beats on the regular. Mysteriously, you don't seem to have that problem. Why is that?

    I disagree with you, Lex. I think that the larger pots normally take much more time than the small pots and should be tipped more. Most dealers can deal about 15 hands in a 30 minute down and expect a dollar a hand. In order to do that, they need a little larger tip on hands that take longer. If you want to play with skilled dealers at the larger stakes, tip them a little more on large pots. The dealers in the 5-10 games need to be better than the ones dealing 1-2 or 3-6 Limit and the players need to recognize that and pay them accordingly with a better tip.
