in there and build a monster stack
hello i just wanted to wish you the best of luck with the 13k bank rolex challenge i can't

in my life i'll ever get to touch a rolex uh thanks so much and good luck
with blind's at two dollars five dollars chronic limper limps under the gun next person to
act makes it ten dollars is this limit next person flat calls i flat call pocket fives
on the button ten dollars a bargain at the two five limit viewer the blog on my left
calls folds around to the under the gun limper who raises to seventy dollars the oldest trick
in the book he said in about 1 000 other guys fold of course i'm going to put in the call
try to set mine feel the pure for you a flopping a set and stacking this under the gun limp
razor and then the unthinkable happens the small blind raises after calling 10 he now
makes it 280 dollars what the hell is he repping action pulls around to the limper who i assume
has aces or kings any folds i have pocket fives the small blind has 450 behind do i
just jam i do a little speech play like my boy william kassouf he's giving up nothing
he says he wants to gamble i say what's your weapon he says you got a call to find out
i go against my gut and fold pocket fives and he shows me deuce seven do seven we're
playing some poker here at resorts world special guest
brad owen and andrew niemi are here in attendance
seven deuce got him luck these are two five games with a 200 minimum buy-in up to 1200.

subscribe comment like subscribe follow jesse pulling on all social medias for updates oh
oh wow oh thank you thank you thank you how's it how's it going over here great table great
atmosphere come to resource world brad and andrew bring out all the whales boom boom
boom boom love it all right i'm really hungry let's dig in
where's the rest of it 40 bucks a grown-ass man is it well blind's at two dollars five
dollars ten dollars a very lively table at these brad owen andrew niemi meetup games
we got 25 bomb pots every half hour we got straddles we got blind raises under the gun
limps same guy incredible folds of me on the cut off i have ace king offsuit i make it
50 to go button who's played over half the hands and is here to gamble as he says puts
in the call and the original emperor calls were three ways to a flop of king ten eight
two diamonds original limper checks i'd check assuming the button is always gonna bet this
he's been batshit insane so top top looks great to me we checked the button and he checks
behind what the hell is going on the turns are queen uh board's getting more wet ace
jackets there jack nine gets there a lot of two pair combos under the gun checks i check
again button checks pretty uneventful a lot of checking going on rivers of three of diamonds
bringing in the flush i had a bit of a timing tell on the under the gun guy who's chronically
limping same guy he thinks about it for a long time and shoves all in for 141 dollars
it's under a pot size bet no big deal we vastly underwrapped our hand what's he bluffing with
though that's the question i don't know i go back to level zero thinking i got top top
let's put in the call button folds ace queen and the shover shows pocket nines for fourth
pair he did have the jack nine blockers and we eliminate a player no just kidding he reloads
and we scoop a nice pot we're in profitville let's keep it going look at this carpet
what is this still shedding quick update at the resorts world 2-5 game we have not needed
to add on so far that's a good thing in for 1200 up to about 1700 after a few pretty nice
hands one thousand seven hundred and thirty dollars is the profit needed to lock up the
bank rolex challenge tonight i'm not gonna force it but we're gonna play to win we're
gonna play winning cash game poker we're gonna make profitable decisions there is no chip
ev this is straight cash money homie that's right five dollars is worth five dollars there's
no icm this is not a tournament but the value of reaching that thirteen thousand dollar
profit milestone will be priceless and will be represented by a beautiful timepiece that
i will cherish forever let's get back in there stay focused and let's get that rolex in this
hand that was captured and shared on twitter by jesse fullen with poker news fellow poker
vlogger jeff boski opens from first position and we defend with the ace 10. action checks
all the way down the river on a board that favors my range much more so than his so we
decided to slide out a bet of two times the pot here jeff says you know what i have i
guess ace king in the moment and it's essentially the same thing he shows us the ace jack and
mucks it which gives us an opportunity to deliver a successful bluff to mr boski glad
we invited this guy i mean you know what i got yeah
one hand later jeff gets his revenge when he opens pre-flop and checks back top pair
on the flop i fall into the trap and bet the turn which he calls but i do at least find
a check fold on the river before getting shown the goods not sure who invited this guy and
his future rolex wearing self
with blinds at two dollars five dollars under the gun limps same guy always limps doesn't
have an open raising range has a limp calling limp folding and limp back raising range really
bizarre to each his own folds around me on the button i looked down at pocket jacks could
make it 25 but uh we're on the button we'll make it 20 to go both the blinds call and
the limper calls all right hopefully there's no overcards four ways to a flop of seven
six three
looking pretty good to me checks around to me i'm bad at math i wanted to bet half pot
instead i bet thirty dollars yeah what's the difference small blind wants to teach me a
lesson it makes 140 the old check raise on the seven high board from the blinds pretty
scary he's got uh all the sets maybe even a few straights maybe some combo draws there's
two diamonds out there the plan is to call this munson but guess what the big blind puts
in the flat call just cold calls 140 under the gun limper folds it's back to me what
do you do with pocket jacks here
we fold we sniffed out a set possibly two pair maybe a combo draw we're praying to be
ahead there's two more cards to come they're probably going to be scary unless it's specifically
an offsuit jack moral the story action gets the showdown guy goes bet shoves river the
river was an offsuit jack the guy ended up having queen jack of diamonds he was semi
bluffing with the flush draw somehow just still barreled off and barreled the river
top pair for value and the other guy folded so uh yeah we would uh would have won that
one but hey that's poker i'm a tournament player what the [ __ ] you want from me i
have been studying the razor edge live cash game course a lot my man says a lot of important
things regarding the live cash game meta game player types frequencies tendencies knowing
your ranges knowing what hands are good to flat versus three bet what type of opponents
to flat or three bet against in a given lineup respecting position or disrespecting position
depending on when the raise is coming from the button or if it's coming from under the
gun check out the razor edge cash game mastery course my promo codes are in the description
below sign up today use my codes and save money don't be a sucker don't pay retail it
is worth it but if you can save some money there's no reason not to sample looking pretty
good to me with blinds at two dollars five dollars the chronic limper limps under the
gun next to act makes it 20 middle position calls 20.
folds me in the small blind i look down at pocket queens hello ladies hello ladies three
bets gonna be standard here put a little spice on top 105 dollars to go folds around to the
chronic limper he's in for five and he says what the hell what's another hundred dollars
he puts in the flat call not a good spot for queens original razor folds and the caller
puts in the call three ways to a flop no acer king please flop comes king five queen two
spades the question is do we check to the two players or we continue our story build
the pot and put in a 65 of the pot bet i go with the aggressive route leaving some bluffs
in our range 210 is the bet original limp caller folds and the second guy puts in the
call i'm putting him on a flush draw please no spade he has about 600 behind just under
a pot size bet let me jam this turn please no spade please have a set of fives please
have king queen the turn is it nine i him and i ha i can taste victory i shove all in
he immediately says i'm gonna need a minute great news he doesn't have top set he probably
has ace tennis phase or ace jack of spades that's fine we can fade this one card to come
i already told him i'm only going to run it once we're playing for all the dollars he
eventually flicks in the call i show the queens and he shows king five two pair no good let's
fade the two outer the river is a brick we have video we scoop a two thousand dollar
pot i count down my stack and guess what we're at and thirty two 2932 i needed to profit
one thousand seven hundred and thirty dollars to secure the bank rolex challenge it's over
game over thirteen thousand dollar profit in a few months rolex boom right right there

shout out to brad owen and andrew niemi for putting on the magnificent meetup game at
resorts world check it out newest casino in las vegas very luxurious appreciate everybody
for joining me on this journey hopefully you enjoyed it big shout out to my editor put
in all those sick edits you don't know how much time goes into these things the 24 intro
all the graphics all the work as always subscribe and hit the alerts button new vlogs coming
very soon you won't believe what i'm going to do next this all happened in the past so
let's fast forward to the future and realize that i now own the datejust 41 blue face diamond
hour markers jubilee bracelet and the fluted bezel here it is
nice things being pricey
looking back at the past 15 or so vlogs i realized that unfortunately they're not as
action-packed as a mariano or as a rampage's vlog maybe i just take lower variance lines
maybe i'm scared to triple barrel it off in a lot of spots maybe i don't make enough of
those big hero call downs i play a lot based upon board texture and historical player tendencies
if a man check raises me on the river and i don't hold the nuts i fold good luck exploiting
that one tight is right in cash games play good starting hands and good things will happen
know your opponents know your ranges know how to navigate different board textures and
what bet sizings are going to be best like my man ben deach plays not a very balanced
strategy but an exploitative strategy that makes him a lot of money in the reno peppermill
zero five game with a bunch of omcs and in the occasional vip shout out to ben dietch
