a big shout-out to Dylan David Lee on Instagram for stopping by my table and
dropping off this nice t-shirt and dreamcatcher
thanks buddy the World Series of Poker $10,000 main event day - we made it but
not quite far enough we're gonna have to get to day eight or some shit
so plan is to bag and tag around 300,000 chips today that is my intention I threw
it out into the universe the universe always listens tables super soft we're
gonna go with a min raise strategy small C bet big turn bet playing max pressure
implying a river shove in all spots so close these guys don't want to lose a
huge stack they want to play tight they don't want to regret their place so
unless I run into a monster I should chip up effortlessly let's bag
and tag around 1 a.m.
and we're here with a viewer the vlog 37 year old Caucasian male hey guys
roofer Boesky is the man coming in today - if you had an average stack around
80,000 chips no rush no worries just play casual you know you don't have to
force anything plenty of time to accumulate chips and find good spots and
make big lay downs people aren't gonna be bluffing very much in the main event
all depends on what type of player you're up against of course but in
general play tight solid poker and you should be able to chip up without much
resistance to make it to day 3 you know you can't play to nitty but you can't
play to lewis either you know you have to play the situations as they come to
you just like in poker it's all situational
but stay focused stay disciplined there's value in min caching and there's
value in getting the biggest stack at the table right before the min cash
because then you can raise pretty much any two cards and just profit other
people like me I failed the min cache 14 years in a row so I'm used to that pain
so I'm playing to win
no to become a part of history only at the Rio only at the World Series of
Poker
with blinds at 400-800 I'm under the gun with Queen at 10 of clubs 35,000 chips
8 handed and make it 1,600 the plan is to men raise all day
apply post flop experience advantage table soft we got to chip him down
button calls he's the only other real competent player at the table with
almost 200 and cave winnings flop comes 9 8 3 rainbow we don't have back to her
clubs unfortunately but we're still gonna see bat 2,200 he quickly puts him
to call the turn is a king a good card for our range we could be see Betty with
king queen king jack ace king or we could still have aces we're here to
represent aces I bet fifty five hundred eighty quickly
calls this is a problem we're pretty much shutting down unless the river
specifically a Jack the river
and the river is no flush draw as possible we got the stone-cold nuts
we unblocked all two pair combos you might have been slow playing a set we
have 27,000 behind the pots about 20,000 we're gonna bet an amount that makes it
look like we can still have a little tournament left if we are in fact
bluffing we bet 20,000 he goes deep deep into the tank I try to give nothing away
maybe look a little scared and he eventually puts him to call
he claims he had King Jack I think he had jacked Hannity he rode regardless we
now have 65,000 chips on first break feeling great tables good we're here
with Ben CB owner of razor-edged comm and bringing us the good luck and had
callers like multiple caller all in yeah
with blinds head 500-1000 under the gun plus one opens to 2500 there's a call in
middle position I'm in the small blind with ace Queen offsuit good three bet
but we're going to respect this 65 year old Caucasian males early position open
I put in the call for three ways to a flop the flop comes jack 10-4 rainbow we
check to the razor and it checks around a nine hits the turn we could rep a lot
of hands here two pairs King Queen I bet fifty two hundred original RAZR calls
fifty two hundred we're heads up to the river and the river is an off suit King
bingo bango bongo Vince we got the nuts question is what should we bet or should
I just go for the check race if he has a queen he's never checking behind if he
has a said he might bet for value or he might have some random block I decide to
check planning to check raise big I check and he bets 13,000 I can hardly
contain myself I have about 65,000 behind and I go for the check raise big
45,000 I don't think he's ever folding a queen to the size cooler in our favor he
thinks about it for a while and eventually folds I'm guessing he didn't
have a queen and we're now on second break with 95,000 going to 1,200 big
blind feeling great
this year generated in 5569 entries for a net prize pool of 80 million places
been cash this year of course is going to be fifteen thousand flat and for one
lucky individual will makes it all the way through July 16 because we crown you
with the WSOP the main event bracelet up here on the stage stagger the breech
only by Tiffany
over the last few hours tables really appreciated me buying them all dinner
they have made some folds they probably shouldn't have
because I bought them dinner so the equity paid for itself along with the
generosity always by your tablemates dinner good things can happen it's only
money they'll appreciate it it's the sentimental value of reciprocity it's a
real thing businesses do it companies do it free
presents free samples free ice cream that's why the first bite
is always the best make them remember the generosity that you gave them and
they will reciprocate hundred thousand going to 800 1600 big blinds
let's stay aggressive I did make a couple tight folds with East 9 I didn't
open it in early middle position I didn't 3bet from the small blind
with blinds at 800 1600 folds me in the cutoff I looked down at ace Queen
offsuit make it 3200 Asian male aged 30 to 60 makes it seven thousand on the
button we've been playing together all day he hasn't gotten to two out of line
but our hands a little too strong to fold we put in the call the flop comes
Queen Jack Jack two clubs I check and he checks I think he has ace king here a
lot when it turns an eighth time to go for value I bet eight thousand he puts
in the call there's now two flush draws on the board and the river is an off
suit ten Ace King got their pocket tens got their everything got there I still
have top hair I check any checks behind he shows pocket kings and we lose a
decent pot with blinds at 800 1600 I'm under the gun plus one with King ten
suited raised up to 3,500 action folds to the big blind long time online reg
with a hilarious Twitter account puts in the call we started the hand with about
70,000 the flop comes East Jack nine rainbow he checks sport hits our range
very well so I put in the seabed of 3,000 he puts in the call he could have
a lot of we cases Jack X 9x some straight draws pretty wide range
we got him dominated range wise when the turn is an ace he checks to us and it's
time to rep the ACE we got the King high never really going to be good here
unless he has like Queen ten or ten eight so we bet six thousand which we
would do if we had trip aces he eventually puts in the call doubt he's
continuing with Queen 10 or ten nine he might be calling us down with Jack high
the river brings a queen we make a straight he checks to us and I think
he's got an ace bad kicker time to go for value we bet fifteen thousand he
tanks and tanks if he shoves it's gonna be pretty ugly but eventually he puts in
the call we show the straight and we scoop a huge pile we now have one
hundred thousand chips blast break of the night
two hours left to play one thousand two thousand coming up let's finish strong
and I've begged 106,000 chips coming back to 1200 2400 tomorrow day three of
the World Series of Poker Main Event
sure I got lucky and hit a couple straights but I survived I resist the
temptation to spew it all off in numerous spots kind of regret that you
know might have worked but here we are slow and steady wins the race day three
stay tuned for that vlog it's going to be great
