- Hey! My name is Mariano, and this channel was created to share some poker sessions and travel.
In this episode, I play some $10-$20 NL at the world famous Bellagio. Things don't really go as expected... which I guess is to be expected?
I hope you enjoy the content. Subscribe for more!

Wow. The progression of stakes since you started is impressive. I remember the 1/3 days!
yep 20BB pots are fucking huge now in comparison; I'm like wtf
reminds me of wes' vlogs back then
I’m nervous for him lol
LoL to think that he built a bankroll from poker is hilarious. I've heard that story without any evidence too many times
meadydoheny. Have you been watching his channel for a while? Mariano as far as I can tell has consistently been winning and moving up stakes. Building up his bankroll. Sucks to take a shot at a bigger game and be card dead or run into big hands. At least he still showed it. That’s class in my books.
@@jagparhar260 well of course it's good to depict reality. Given his frequency of play and the cost of living, I still highly doubt poker is his main gig and I'm pretty sure he's admitted he's not a pro (for most people, that means poker isn't their main source of income). Ive watched all his vlogs and my assumption isn't one made to discredit him nor denounce the quality of content
Tom Dwan was an exceptional cash game player with tremendous results on PAD and HSP...but I don't buy his "humble beginnings" story of "running up $50 on Party Poker"🙄 that story is pure ad-placement.
Was looking forward to seeing this one, get em next time💪🏻
Ayeee Im subscribed to this dude. Both great vlogs
Ayyyy e man !!!! Lol 🃏🃏
Both of you doing awesome Amigos. You tried it very hard, the night was not yours man.
Rampage!!!
While Rampage is in Boston collecting yet another “Bonus Hand.”
“Don’t forget to tip your dealers.”
For it being such a "Bad" evening i applaud your positivity! Continue making great content Mariano, great work! Love it!
Thanks!
Sorry for the crap session bud but I have to say you’re so damn likable and easy to root for. It’s refreshing to see someone that comes across as genuine and kind in what tends to be a rather brutal environment. Wishing you the best Mariano!
Thanks Charles I appreciate the kind words. I've felt the same way about your videos since before I started vlogging!
Well said.
Sessione sfortunata Mariano. Unfortunate session !
You have some massive balls to play 10/20. I’ve been playing for 3 years and am too scared to go beyond 2/5.
Like a fish who lives in the Great Barrier Reef, swimming out, and running into the great whites.
This little fish wants to go to the moon
@@MarianoPoker Try to get there before a wife or kids enter the picture. Gets tougher after that. :)
@@crossfitnoob sucks 4 u
I give him credit, but it’s a lot easier to have balls than it is to do (mostly) everything right.
I mean, considering everything, there’s always that possibility that it was foolish to play in this game. Everybody seems to give everybody credit for “shot taking “, but if it’s not perfectly in line with the way things should flow, it could be spewing.
The last hand with pocket 10s nothing one can do just a cooler
I shouldn't have been eating a sandwich
@@MarianoPoker Bravo.
A few lessons learned from beating mid-stakes, especially in Vegas:
1. When you make small c-bets without a made hand, and then find yourself checking two streets because you didn't improve, you are just giving money away...not to mention you become extremely exploitable. Either make larger c-bets (e.g., 75%-100% pot), check-raise, or just check-fold and cut your losses. Don't make small flop bets, even with the nuts, especially multi-way, and definitely not when out of position.
2. If you are going to take passive post-flop lines, then you are generally better off check-calling more and c-betting less. You keep the pot smaller, can catch your opponent bluffing, and can take stabs (i.e., apply pressure) on the River vs. the Flop if the situation allows. Bloating the pot on the flop without a made hand, out of position, is a losing strategy, especially when you don't improve and then show weakness. At that level, your small c-bets are going to get called every time.
3. Nobody is forcing you to play hands like AQ and AJ. No shame in folding those preflop. Don't force the action and build big pots with hands like those preflop, especially in EP. Instead, either fold or take a passive line. If you don't smash the flop, you can just fold to aggression. Or, you can exploitatively bluff your opponents on later streets if they themselves show weakness and/or the board texture supports the story that you played a trappy line with a very strong made hand (e.g., two pair, sets, trips, boats, straights, etc.). Especially at 10/20, the regs and grinders pride themselves on making tight folds, especially to players they consider to be nitty. But your story better make sense, and don't try to bluff the whale. He'll call you just to see it.
4. Most importantly! Have a pre-flop limping range from EP and MP. This is very different than lower stakes, including 2/5, where limps and min-raises are just pot sweeteners for all the ragged hands to call. Same for min-raising. For example, 75% of the time, limp or min-raise all suited Aces, pocket pairs 7 and lower, 78s, and JTs. The other 25% you can standard raise or just fold. Likewise, 25% of the time limp or min-raise AA, KK, QQ, JJ, and AKs,. If you get raised, you re-raise AA, KK, QQ, and A5s. You can either call or fold the other hands...depending on the raise, your position, and how many other players are in the hand. Never limp or min-raise 8's - 10's. Just raise those directly, or flat if raised to you. You're playing those hands strictly to win the blinds or set-mine anyway.
5. When taking stabs at bigger games, play tighter than you normally would. It's better to get exploited and learn from it than try to run over a table of players with bigger bankrolls and a lot more experience. You could fold every hand except for AA, pay your time rake, and just learn from watching and being in the flow. That'll go a lot further than booking a huge loss early in your career.
If you do these things, you'll minimize losses when you are running badly, and you'll win more when you are running well.
One thing I think you have to appreciate, whenever you move up a pay grade, is that it’s literally moving up a division.
Some of the faces form the previous price range may be there, but the competition is just that next level.
The good 5-10 players may join in on 10-20 sometimes. But they’re mediocre.
Those 10-20 guys can be sharks. Dealing with pots the size some guys take home from work each day. They play those within 3-5 minutes.
But playing with better competition forces you to get better.
Mariano plays pretty well on the smaller tables.
Not perfectly or amazingly. But pretty well. Seems to generate consistent $500 profits. Which work out it sounds like to about $50 an hour. Not too bad.
Where his weakness lies, and is highlighted in this vlog. Is that he seems to play a much stricter gto style. Playing hands like you woukd on the trainer.
That’s good. But at higher stakes, with guys who know gto well. They then will add a meta game.
This guy plays strict gto. Suggesting his range is x,y,z from his sizing.
My hand sucks, but if I bet this, he will interpret my hand as this.
That is the beauty of playing higher stakes.
They force you to hone your game even more. Otherwise you will lose a lot.
Damn what a nit lol
good calls.
Dear god, people are actually agreeing with this?
Yes, I think he has good points.
Your videos are soo professionally shot. Can’t believe you have less than 50k subs I’m sure that will change in no time...........
Pretty impressive that he showed without any editing of losing session in 10/20 which he jumped in for the first time. Hope your games to be improved in the future.
Mariano! You have now surpassed the ball size of both Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme who started vlogging way before you. What an achievement continuing to step up to 10-20. Keep it up!
Yours feels more honest and genuine than the other vlogs I watch. It's appreciated.
The video quality is incredible! And you know I love the "Straddle." shirt!
Love your vlogs man! Definitely my favorite poker vlogger. Just wish there would be more frequent content but keep doing what you’re doing!
Your why poker videos have become so popular. Just so well done . Cudos for putting your money in a game where for lack of experience you are huge disadvantages. I am sure that won't last too long. Cant wait for next 10-20 vlog.
A Mariano upload...it's going to be a good Tuesday.
😊
You're not wrong.
The one we been waiting for. Started 1/3 now you’re 10/20. Embrace that grind brother and see ya in Texas soon
Thanks Trevor
You gotta play closer to the vest, when stepping up like this. You also got to bet every time your ahead. Free cards kill stacks at this level.
Always enjoy your "short films"! Your style of deciding to make a vlog before you play is cool. Triumph or tragedy, you show us what really happened on your poker journey. I have watched every one of your films, and I'll bet your bankroll is doing just fine. Maybe some day you can make a video on how you film, make notes, and put a video together if that info isn't secret.
The Ace Jack hand reminded me of when I first started playing 1-2 and I learned the leason not to over value top top flop hands.
It's over your head
Only 2 yrs and hes playing 10-20 to 20-40,... that's so impressive I don't even know what to say! Excellent work Mariano that's forsure!!
That's intense, I can only imagine how you were feeling man!! I'm sure your heart was beating pretty fast on some of those hands.
Hats off to you for shooting such a chilled out outro, after a 5.5k loss man.. You’ll get them next time!
do the math again
6.5k sorry my bad
@@aokijannick7616 you say potato..... ;-)
Spoiler alert
I ran like that for a whole year it made me stop playing for a while. Losing to one outers several occasions, more runner runners than I can count etc etc. when I got back into it, I got it back. You’re a solid player, you’ll get it back too. Great vlogs!
Am going through the exact same thing. Runner runner or opponents getting lucked out like crazy. Taking a break helps clear the mind.
Yeah poker sucks sometimes, good luck man
Glad you were aggressive playing at higher stakes. Most people play very passive when taking a shot. Good luck next time and keep up the great vlogs.
Vegas is where it’s at! No joke, 10/20 in Vegas is probably one of the hardest games to play in regularly too. Very few spots.
Watching all your videos today at work lol.. Dale que tu puede!
Great shots of Vegas. Love the videos. Push on and brush this one off. Thanks for the content!
Will do thanks Jason :)
@@MarianoPoker forgot to ask .what kind of drone do you use? If that is what you use
Always grateful for a short film. You'll get em next time
Anybody that takes a shot moving up deserves my sub. It’s always the worst feeling to continuously brick every flop in these sessions.
Great work Mariano. Really enjoyed it - the honesty and transparency in your narrative makes this must-watch vlogging. You will get them next time I'm sure. It is worth asking yourself if you want to sit in a game where "That guy over there is the only non-pro at the table". But if you're doing it for the right reasons and are staying within financial sanity, then plenty cool.
I'm loving the review of the older vids. This looks like the infancy of when you started playing a lot bigger stakes. Now this is small compared to a lot of the stakes you play. Best wishes to you!
You're a brave man. Sorry for your loss, you'll get em next time. Thanks for the blog, great production value.
Just hit sub...dig the drone footage! Keep ya head up bro!
You've become my favourite poker vlogger.
Prob one of the Most solid players and great hand analysis.
Great intros/outros/drone shots.
Keep up the good work man.
Thanks man!
You did great in the next blog so that’s something. Amazing content. Great plays. I love how straightforward it is presented so thank you for that!
I got recked playin at bellagio when I went on my Vegas trip 2 months ago. I found all the old drunk fish at caesars palace
Huge jump in stakes! Even though it didn’t end up how we wanted congrats for taking the shot! Looking forward to see you grind it back brother!
Thanks man!
What are the official rules for recording vlogs in the Bellagio? Do you have to be sneaky about it? Is it pretty common?
Amazing quality as usual. Sorry the results weren’t good.
Just subscribed as I really appreciate people who expose their mistakes, own them and draw conclusions. Kudos to you mate
Thanks!
Mariano, you are a truly great player and you are humble and in control of your ego! You are destined for many, many winning days!
That sounds good to me !
One of the best vlogs out there.
Hats off for the transparency and not hiding the losing sessions.
Hope you kick back soon, mate 👊
Thanks man
I’m really liking your channel. Thanks for the honesty and good analysis!
I got a friend that moved up to 5-10 No Limit Hold’em and lost around $3,000. He was on a massive TILT. Proceeded to the high limit blackjack and lost $17,000. Depleted his cash on hand and pulled cash advance on his credit card. It was rough to watch
Gamblers Anonymous for your friend. Get him there before he ruins his life anymore.
Wow I hope your friend has got his self together 20k in a day is rough
That's not good
I was waiting all week for this video and was hoping you would crush it, well there’s always next time! Goodluck and love watching your videos man!
You're commentary is the best. Kind of a cold deck session, but I think you are able to handle it better than most. Keep up the work Mariano, you're run good is around the corner!
Thanks man!
mariano -- were you staked in this game? -- seems like a big portion of your roll was on the table otherwise. -- i've been playing for 20+ years .. and have not made it past 3/5 .. my hat is off to your for the having the courage ... i'm too chicken to take a multi thousand dollar loss in 1 game.
I think he has %100 of himself. He doesn't record all of his sessions and plays A LOT. I only see him getting staked for 25/50 deep stacked.
@@mr.personal-ity i thought so too -- takes major cojones to put a significant amount at stake -- and i dont know the size of marionos bankroll .. but even if its 150k .. or 300k (but i guess i'm making too many assumptions, for all i know mariano is playing with $500k behind) .. putting 15k on the line at once is a significant portion. like i said .. my hat is off to you mariano .. i'll be watching from the rail and rooting you on as you climb up stakes
You should’ve bet the JJ9 flop to possibly find out where you are or fold out certain hands. You also left out KQ suited on the hand where you had AJ. Overall you were unlucky. Still you showed a ton of weakness a lot of hands and it probably effected overall game play.
Keep up the good work man! I've been watching since day 1!!
Brutal.....hope the Poker Gods grant you better success in day 2. Great content and excellent drone footage at the end.
Thanks man!
Love the positive attitude. That will serve you well in the future. Cards run in streaks. Yours will come.
Thanks!
It looked like there were a lot of trappers in the game. You'll get 'em next time. Best of luck and thanks for making these videos!
Props to you bro, good seeing moving up the levels. Keep your head up and you'll beat the game eventually!
Been watching since almost the beginning and still rooting for you! Sucks for the bad session but I know you’ll get it back. Once again, great quality content and please keep em coming!
Dude. Your vlogs are awesome. Keep pumping them out!!
I'll try :)
Awesome video as always. Keep em coming and all the best from across the pond.
Thanks!
You wouldn't have made that sizing mistake at 5-10. Stakes are affecting your play. But I wish you the best of luck. You are the best of the bloggers as far as playing goes.
Exactly my thoughts on that AJ hand. Cost him like 1400
Been waiting for this for a few days, constantly refreshing! So pumped!
Sorry for the disappointing results my friend
@@MarianoPoker sure watching you lose money sucks, but you will grow into the game just like 2/5 and 5/10. Love your analysis and can't wait to watch you crush at 10/20 too!
Great photography. Love the drone outtro. Wish you luck next time, cheers
I truly like your poker blogs and admire your monologues as you explain each hand. That being said, I also think you speak quite eloquently; much more so than a poker player! And your abilities with the camera are good too! I think you should look into being a director or producer as apposed to being a poker blogger!!!
I REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU EXPLAIN THE PLAY
Hi Mariano: so you only ran it once on that last hand? After you flopped a set and he went runner runner flush, he prolly would have hit a 3 outer set on the 2nd board, but still... to reduce variance (as in your first run it twice hand) did you guys run it twice?
Like your "Straddle." tee.
I follow DGAF too...
Chin up. Hope your next vlog is of a "sun run".
Cheers.
Mario another really good vlog. I was rooting for you so hard. I was anticipating this vlog because of the jump in stakes. I respect your game and think you should try them again in that game. You will end up getting them. Keep pushing Brother and cant wait for the next one
This is crazy to see the progression from 1/3 to this!
Your analysis that there is only one combination of QJ suited is brilliant. I know it’s tough in the moment, and I’m sure I don’t have to even say it, but it makes total sense that he has 99 in that spot given the preflop action. As you said, it’s only 77, 88, 99, 1010, really.
Mariano love your videos and I'm glad you went for your goal of a bigger game. didn't see much bad play, just one of those dead card days, hopefully next time will be better.
it would be cool if you could give a little rundown of who is at your table (whether they are known or you just give general descriptions), or describe the surroundings, something more than just "we're getting in a game, here's the first hand..." to help us viewers feel more in the moment with with you. just a suggestion. I love the production and photog quality of your video, keep it up and better luck next time
Thanks man!
Big fan of how high quality your vids are. Keep it up
Thanks Mariano, I really enjoy your videos.
Sometimes no matter how you play, and no matter what cards you get….you just can’t seem to win many hands! I’ve had sessions like this one where I get so many good hands and they either completely WHIFF or I finally flop something decent and get out flopped or drawn out on 🙄
Great job on video. Your attitude is on point. You'll grind your way to winnings and look back on this session as your learning tuition. Lol
Keep grinding brother. The first time i went up to 10/20 i was fortunate to have several winning sessions in a row and quickly added 25K to my roll. It gave me confidence going forward and 10/20 became my usual game. But i have had several soul crushing sessions and you just have to fight through it.. someone else commented correctly that it’s useful to just walk around or end a session prematurely now and then.
Nice growth in your playing. You’re doing very well. “Warning “ though... you need to avoid what is known as “winners tilt “ . It happens when you get a serious bump to your bankroll/ bad beat. Shake it off and focus. Get up take a short walk or end the session unless you’re up to playing through it. My longest session was 17 hours at the bike . Played through the bad of being stuck $1700 to winning $ 1400 . Then got up and cashed out.
I like the balance of the blogs where you win and these when you take it on the chin... good work as always!
Thanks man!
Technically speaking mr pocket 3’s was the favourite in that all in. His offer to run it twice was actually quite polite.
Your odds were about 46-54 give or take a rare split pot. Considering the stack that was already comitted though and any other seperate bets or dead money,
You could have been getting good or better odds on your own money.
Dude, you need to come to the Texas card house in Dallas! It's playing 9 handed and The action is ridiculous!
Action sounds good, 9-handed sounds like a nightmare
Hey brudda, keep your head up! I’m sure you’ll have better luck next time! Mariano Poker OP 🔥
Tough beat Mariano but it happens.. all part of the game.. been there too.. u will get them next time!
videos are getting even better keep grinding. How did you finish 2020?
It was amazing
One of my deepest wishes is to see you play rampage at some point. You two are the same age, play the same stakes, and have the same amount of subs. And yet, you would absolutely crush him.
so presumptuous with that last statement
T T vs AA runner, runner flush was pain.
AJ hand should avoid to play at a higher stake imo
I hate AJ you’d just rather take it down squeezing with AJ lol. Even on that dry ass board he got burned 😞
Would love to try poker one day, but ai can already see I’d go broke in seconds lmao. Definitely need A LOT of practice
Great vlogg man
Thanks
Thanks for the great content as always man! Love the shot take, even if it didn't go well. You'll definitely get em next time!
Thank you
Atta Boi! Gotta take those shots, always good to see where your at!
Congrats on staking up. Happens(ed) to me too everytime. Just gotta view it as "getting it out of the way," or with an analogy, hitting your shins with bricks to build the bone in mixed martial arts
Awesome video! I love the jump to 10/20. I have a question about the first hand. I completely agree that the 1087 flop favors your opponent, but if you could replay it, would you bet the flop? As you correctly mentioned, when you check twice, your hand is completely face up, and you leave yourself open to being bluffed on the river. I'm just playing armchair quarterback here, but betting on the flop seems like it might result in you winning the pot - at least some of the time. What are your thoughts?
well played. im not sure about the AJ 3bet pre but other than that...
As always another great SHORT FIlM, always enjoy your vlog films.
Nothing wrong with taking that up shoot in limits. Just too bad the session went the way it did. Wouldn't have been so bad if it had been a little of back and forth. Nothing wrong with the 2-5 or the 5-10 at the Bellagio to get that $ back.
Hey Mariano! Did you grind yourself up to be bankrolled to take such shots fully from poker, or is this more of just for vlog content/experience.
I really appreciate the intro music. Very nice vibes. It soothed my anxiety about 10/20
Wow, that some serious "runbad"... That's so frustrating when you're taking a shot. Keep grinding my friend
Dude is legit movie director zone, channel well done gg
Man, that was a bad beat. Grind that money back and give it another shot. The cards will definitely be kinder next time....maybe. Great vlog as always.
Already got it back this week 💪🏼 thanks man
Apart from the loss this is a great video bro. Picked up decent considerations when I decide to move up the ladder!
Thanks man!
Heard someone once say, "When you jump up in stakes, you need to run good". Same happens to me all the time and don't get that run good. Props for the video!!!
This is so true. You can play perfectly with all the right hands, and in what you believe are the right spots, but if you aren’t running good it can get bad in a hurry.
I thought your play overall was fine. Just some very unfortunate run outs. Keep your head up, Mariano...... you'll get it back and then some! Love the videos.
Thanks man!
Love the positivity. You a real one for that.
No, you the real one
Keep grinding man. Your rise in stakes is impressive and I admire the attitude.
Thanks Mike!
Damn Mariano,
I’m in the middle of the worst downswing of my poker career, and watching this vlog was painful. Glad to see that you handled it like a boss! Keep crushing!
Thanks!
Must have been an awesome experience playing that high. Sucks you didn’t run better!! Better luck next time!!
Sucked to lose, but was actually pretty fun
@@MarianoPoker I think you played well too, just didn’t run too well there at the start
