Dwelling on his experience playing the best at the nose bleeds, Wilson shared the main differences the high stakes have with the low ones.<br><br>\u201cYou have to bring it every single session and you can\u2019t give anything away,\u201d Wilson shared.<br><br>\u201cThe regs you\u2019re playing against are humans who are at the top of the poker food chain. They\u2019ll remain comfortable and clear-headed under massive amounts of pressure and maintain discipline &amp; focus regardless of how their session is going.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen they make mistakes, they\u2019ll invest enormous amounts of energy analyzing that mistake off-the-felt in an attempt to never repeat it. If you play against them regularly, they will lay awake at night breaking down your game &amp; finding holes they can exploit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Wilson&#8217;s experience may sound like somewhat of a cautionary tale, he assured readers the high stakes are not completely devoid of profitable competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are far more weaker, recreational players at high stakes than I think a lot of people realize, so you really need to know how to be opportunistic and maximize your EV when you find yourself in really profitable spots.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/the-bankroll-bible\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/PC-Blog_Tips-For-Managing-Your-Poker-Bankroll-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"It is important you properly manage your Poker Bankroll whenever you play poker tournaments and cash games.

On the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@ChasingPokerGreatness\">Chasing Poker Greatness YouTube channel<\/a>, Wilson shared the most memorable hand of his poker career, which took place at Commerce Casino in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI was just sitting down playing the regular $10\/$20 game that I always played, minding my own business when in walks <strong>Bruno Mars<\/strong>,\u201d Wilson recalled in the video. \u201cHe was going on a world tour, and wanted to blow off some steam before spending two years on the road.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking part in a poker marathon that went through the night and into the next day, the session eventually led to an incredibly memorable hand played between Wilson and Mars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI straddled under-the-gun to $40 and everyone folds to Bruno who opens to $200 on the button,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cI looked down at 5-5 and decide to flat Bruno\u2019s raise. The flop comes down J<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#ff0000\" class=\"has-inline-color\">\u2666<\/mark>-9<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#ff0000\" class=\"has-inline-color\">\u2666<\/mark>-5<mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#ff0000\" class=\"has-inline-color\">\u2665<\/mark>. I check with my bottom set and Bruno grabs $400&nbsp; very quickly and throws it into the pot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After 16 hours of playing with Mars, Brad had an inclination that he was holding a strong hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t super concerned that he had a set, but I knew he had a hand that he wasn\u2019t going to let go of easily,\u201d Brad said. \u201cI check-raise to $1,400, and to my surprise and excitement, Bruno after 2 or 3 seconds of thought grabs two stacks of white $100 chips and pushes them into the middle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being re-raised by the pop star for $4,000, Wilson deduced his opponent had a hand he felt he needed to protect. Not wanting to scare Mars away by ripping it, Wilson flatted the raise and prayed for a blank on the turn. After the 2\u2663 creeped across the board, Wilson checked and was delighted to witness Mars flick in a pink, $5,000 poker chip. After hollywooding for a minute, Wilson moved all-in for $8,000 more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Executing a perfect check-shove, Wilson\u2019s move did not amuse Mars whatsoever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBruno cuts loose with a stream of words I can\u2019t say in this video, and then starts analyzing the hand out loud,\u201d Brad said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Mars contemplated a number of holdings Wilson could potentially have, he asked the poker pro if he would be willing to run it twice. As Wilson remained stoic, Mars exclaimed \u201cI know him, I know he\u2019ll run it twice.\u201d Eventually, Mars made the call, and saw the bad news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe asks \u2018What do you got?\u2019 and I said \u2018I\u2019ve got a set\u2019 and he said \u2018Dammit! I\u2019m drawing dead.\u2019 I just said \u2018Nice hand\u2019 and the dealer burned and turned and then shipped me this $30,000 pot. As Bruno stood up to leave the table, he said \u2018Hey Brad, do you mind throwing me a $10 chip for valet?\u2019 So of course, I did and then he disappeared into the night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Poker Stories Episode 1: Battling Bruno Mars\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mHdF050aZLU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chasing Poker Greatness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When Wilson isn\u2019t creating Live Play &amp; Explains for PokerCoaching.com members, he can be found hosting the popular <em>Chasing Poker Greatness<\/em> podcast. Since publishing his first interview in 2019, Wilson has conducted over 200 interviews featuring professional poker players and individuals within the poker industry. <a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/daniel-negreanu-an-interview-with-the-worlds-most-popular-poker-player\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Along with interviews<\/a>, the <em>Chasing Poker Greatness<\/em> podcast also features the weekly Tactical Tuesday segment, where Wilson and his business partner Jon Chai break down different strategical aspects of the game. Discussing his podcast, Wilson does not shy away from acknowledging the positive impact the production has had on his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe <em>Chasing Poker Greatness<\/em> podcast has benefitted my career in really too many ways to count,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cAs a matter of fact, we\u2019re doing this interview right now because I had Jonathan Little on the podcast &amp; he offered me this exact gig (being a PokerCoaching coach).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on the plethora of guests he has had on his hit podcast, Wilson shared how he has not only enjoyed interviewing some of the world\u2019s best but also how he has been impacted by guests who discuss topics outside of poker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHaving poker killers like <strong>Jason Koon<\/strong>, PokerCoaching\u2019s own Jonathan Little and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardplayer.com\/cardplayer-poker-magazines\/66510-aliaksandr-shylko-36-6\/articles\/24774-final-table-takedown-justin-saliba-continues-run-with-pokergo-cup-victory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Justin Saliba<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/phil-hellmuth-makes-a-44000-mistake-on-hustler-casino-live\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Phil Hellmuth<\/a><\/strong>, <strong>Daniel \u201cJungleman\u201d Cates<\/strong>, <strong>Josh Arieh<\/strong>, <strong>Jon \u201cApestyles\u201d Van Fleet<\/strong>, and <strong>Andrew \u201cLuckyChewy\u201d&nbsp;Lichtenberger<\/strong> on the podcast was obviously incredibly exciting and a huge honor for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlternatively, episodes that dove into dealing with heavy, non-poker topics (<strong>Aleeyah Jadavji<\/strong> &amp; cancer, <strong>Fergal Nealon<\/strong> &amp; raising money for Ukraine) also have a very special place in my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a platform to conversate with legendary poker players and discuss impactful topics has provided a lot to Wilson, but above all, he most appreciates the community the podcast has created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe biggest benefit, however, has almost certainly been the growth of my Slack community, Greatness Village,\u201d Wilson shared. \u201cI\u2019ve been incredibly fortunate to form so many incredible, lifelong relationships in Greatness Village and can\u2019t really imagine my life without it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Poker Coaching and Brad Wilson\u2019s Advice To Aspiring Pros<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since joining Team PokerCoaching, Wilson has helped countless students improve their <a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/the-best-preflop-strategy-to-crush-cash-games\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">cash game abilities<\/a>. Although his instruction usually centers around poker, Wilson appreciates how his teaching can connect with other impactful topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy favorite aspect of poker coaching is how dynamic the gig is. It doesn\u2019t ever really get old because humans seem to have an uncanny intuition for falling into emotional, physical, and psychological traps, myself included!\u201d Wilson said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUltimately, I would say my primary responsibility is identifying the most valuable levers in my students&#8217; poker games and then guiding them through the trouble-shooting process. A lot of times the highest leverage conversations will be poker specific (strategic or tactical) but other times they can fall within the realm of mindset or performance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilson offers plenty of instruction on <a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/5-reasons-why-3-bets-crush-in-cash-games\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">three-betting ranges<\/a>, exploitative strategies, and building a winning cash game strategy, but often times he finds the biggest lessons fall outside of the scope of poker. To fully correct leaks and errors within a student\u2019s game, Wilson is a firm believer that achieving peak performance as a person can be the first step in correcting issues at the poker table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you really think about all of the potential mindset and performance leaks that exist in the realm of humanity, you\u2019ll quickly realize what I mean by dynamic due to just how many potential failure points exist. I\u2019ve had countless conversations about relationships, marriages, parenting, sleep, nutrition, physical fitness, breathwork, and meditation during coaching sessions because resolving those issues had much higher leverage than resolving some kind of tactical poker leak.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on what has brought about his success <a href=\"https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/privatecoaching\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">as a poker coach<\/a>, Wilson makes a point to acknowledge the flip side as well. Although he has assisted many students in improving their game and becoming winning players, Wilson highlights his failures and the benefits they have had on his instruction and career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile poker success is the fruit of my labor, failure has a very important function as well\u201d, Wilson shared. \u201cFailure shows me where my coaching blindspots\/biases are which forces me to closely examine my weaknesses so that I can address those weaknesses and ultimately become a better coach moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking away all the lessons he has learned through the successes and failures of his poker coaching career, Wilson is always willing to provide knowledge to aspiring professional poker players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/push-fold-charts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Master a GTO short stack preflop poker tournament strategy and know when to move all-in with the help of Jonathan Little's Push Fold Charts on PokerCoaching.com\" class=\"wp-image-2519906\" width=\"633\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-746x420.jpg 746w, https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-373x210.jpg 373w, https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/jl-push-fold-charts.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/push-fold-charts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong><em>Make the best preflop decisions with Jonathan Little&#8217;s Push\/Fold Charts!<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brad Wilson\u2019s Advice To Aspiring Poker Players<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked what advice he had for aspiring cash game pros grinding it out in the <a href=\"http:\/\/pokercoaching.com\/blog\/3-big-mistakes-that-most-small-stakes-poker-players-make\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">$1\/$2 and $1\/$3 streets<\/a>, Wilson touched on the importance of looking inward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTake responsibility for your career &amp; your results.
