Shoutout to the European pro at my table who won’t chop and is using a limp strategy in the small blind … in a 5/10 game with $7 flat drop on the flop

About once a month I like to call a river raise with less than the nuts or something, just to confirm that they do, in fact, always have it. These are expensive lessons, but nothing valuable comes for free.

Getting limp-reraised is annoying, but usually what’s happening is that your opponent has a great hand and finds playing poker really scary, and you should be happy they faced their fears and came to play with you today

Francisco from the HCL stream just got it in with me with AJhh against my QQ on KQ2hhx and hit a royal on the first board and then a flush on the second, and I didn’t even get a “that’s poker” out of him. Disappointing

In 2012, I also ate dog food.
Not because I was broke, but because Nick Howard served me Purina at a dinner party.
I said, “No, thank you.”
He said, “You’re a guest at my home.”
In 2015, I stopped going to dinner parties.
Today I’m a millionaire

I’m still pretty agnostic on double board PLO bomb pots, for a bunch of reasons. But man they are great for quickly figuring out if a reg has actual aptitude for poker or if they’re just a stack of preflop charts in a trench coat

A guy came to my table and asked his friend, in Armenian, who the fish was. His friend responded in Armenian that the fish was seat 2.
Unbeknownst to these two guys, seat 2 also spoke Armenian and he translated the conversation for the table after he finished laughing

When I was about 12, my parents asked what I wanted to do with my life and I said I wanted to design video games. They said, “You could surely do something more honorable than that.” It’s funny looking back that I absolutely did not

As I’ve said many times, Third Man Walking is not an instructional podcast. No, it is a podcast dedicated to complaining about bad beats
New episode! As the downswing continues, I snitch on another reg, eat way too much McDonald’s, and ignore a spilled soft drink as my opponent cracks my top set with king high

Just made a river shove that was probably worse than any play I’ve made in a year. I accidentally got my opponent to fold a slightly better hand, but there was a side pot so I had to show anyway. The guy who folded says, “That one isn’t going on the podcast, is it?”

I have lost $2500 this week in double board PLO bomb pots where my opponents turned over straights and flushes they didn’t realize they had. Both times, they smiled at me as if they expected me to be as pleasantly surprised as they were

2-for-2 bagging tournaments so far this year. I bought in for $1400 on Day 2 and am headed back tomorrow for Day 3 with 1.2 million, which I believe is a bit more than average. About 90 left. We’re in the money but nowhere near anything meaningful

Sometimes I’ll play with someone whose public image is that of a total crusher and top coach and he’ll be in 5/10 sitting with $500 and yelling when he gets stacked. And I’ll think, eh, maybe he bought a multimillion-dollar house in the Palisades yesterday and this is temporary

Many live poker players who present as pros aren’t actually trying to win money, they’re trying to look cool and not lose. Either that or they have no idea what’s actually going on. There is no other possible explanation for the choices they routinely make

If you post a hand history somewhere, it does no good if the only details you relay about your opponent are what race and gender they are. “Black guy raises to 350.” Ok? I don’t know what stereotypes you’re expecting me to agree with here. Is this a whale? A nit? Phil Ivey? Who?

Many people have asked how I've survived as a poker player and I've never come clean until now. I simply run it twice whenever I gain expected value from doing so, and decline when I don't. Easy. The rest is all luck

I was texting something similar to a friend earlier. Public games can be tougher and you sometimes have to play with someone who isn’t fun. But you probably won’t get cheated or robbed or raked to oblivion, and you won’t have to deal with the politics
inevitably, the security of public games will bring them back into fashion

5/5 with a 50 bb ante and a 50 straddle
Utg1 limp. We 275 AA hj. Limper 800. We 2200. He calls.
Flop 4500: J87ssx. He leads 3300. We jam for ~8500 total. He calls and we hold twice against KK.
That's a 22k pot, the biggest I've ever won!

This will be the last episode for awhile that has anything to do with being on a downswing. People seem to have liked this run of episodes as much as anything I've ever done, but it's time to move on. Hopefully I'll just catch some heat

There is no such thing as a “bad image.” Having any image you can exploit is a good thing. Sometimes your image makes bluffing better, and sometimes it makes value betting better

I don’t know why but I’ve had like 80 conversations with people at casinos where I’ll be talking to them for awhile and they’ll be like, “You’re British, right?” Are you even listening? I’m not British. I’m simply an American with fussy mannerisms who gets sunburns all the time

A player is considering changing to my table and he’s looking around and pointing to each player and saying what he thinks of each. “No action … no action … action.” He points to me and says, “Somewhat action.”

When you bluff jam the river, and your opponent tanks, says “oh you’ve got trips, huh” in a spot where you have 80 million combos of trips, *and then calls anyway*, that’s when you know your bluff was a great one

Ryusake immediately & cheerfully hops in a $2/5 game. Absolutely legendary stuff and definitely something I would have done in my first few years playing. Still love this shit myself (only when I win obv 😜)

Sort of related, my girlfriend just heard me use the phrase "donk" a bunch of times on a call and told me that sounded "gross." She then made a list of other "gross" poker terms:
-Nuts
-Squeeze play
-Bet on the come
-Suck out
-Tainted outs
-Wet board
A little light-hearted break from the toxicity of poker twitter.

Watching Netflix's new Squid Game show where, unless there are wrinkles I'm not yet aware of, each player's life in the game is worth $10,000 and players are eliminated until there's one winner. I feel like I've watched this game every summer for my whole adult life

Player A, who has berated dealers several times in the hour I’ve been at the table, jams preflop for $1500 and Player B calls. The board runs out QT5ccc2x9cccc and B shows AsQh. Player A calls entire table “fucking donkeys” and throws KJdd face-up onto the muck. 1/2
