Update April 2018
********************
OK Vlogger Thread, we are going with some new parameters to try to make this the POSITIVE vlogger thread that it is supposed to be, not the AIDS vlogger thread where a few loonies ruin it for the rest. Note that 'positive' does not equal 'only positive', it means anything negative being said CAN'T be namecalling or wild, unsubstantiated speculation regarding any and all vloggers. Personal lives and anything aside from poker is OFF THE TABLE.

A new update March 2019:
NO ****ING POLITICS!
If there is no prohibition on doing business on the casino floor, why doesn't Sparkli open a kiosk in the Bellogio's lobby?
Sure we agree on the fact that leaving is better than tilting off more money,that is beside my point really. Its that you are so mentally weak that you lose your shyt completely after losing less than a buyin, that you not only have to quit your session but run back to your room to rage in peace. That is some serious serious tilt issues.
And then have the stomack to claim you handled this better than 99 percent of live poker players is just,i have no words.
Rice is like this with everything.
He earns 35k a year and manages to save 2k of it by living like a homeless bum and then claims he's better off than 99% of people earning 200k+ because maybe a handful of them find a way to blow all their money and save nothing.
He exaggerates the reality to such an extreme that his situation ends up looking halfway decent. He is also highly reactionary to negative experiences.
He had one boss who cheated him out of some pay, one landlord who refused to give him back his security deposit; and so he now assumes than every single boss and landlord on the planet are like that. One bad beat and he's changed his entire life and moved out of Vegas. One bad ruling by the law professors not following the rubric and he reacted by deciding to never practice law because the world is so horribly cruel and unfair.
It's literally the story of his life.

20k* a year
And yes tilt is major issue for him clearly, emotional management is a key component of someone being able to play a lot of hours or hands. I reject the idea he’s a super grinder and always have. It’s always been much more hopes and wishes for him than a reality going back to one of his early videos where he claimed he would make 40-50k that year, he made like 22 I think.
There’s people who live in reality and people who don’t
Also when Rice talks about the Red Rock Massacre, he claims that he is handling it better than 99 percent of poker players due to running away from the table and thus not tilting off any extra money. Sure, there isnt a 1/2 live grinder alive that is able to keep playing decent poker after losing less than a buyin with AA. How do PLO players stomack to lose 10 buyins in a session without going to the mental hospital according to Rice? I guess he believes that every live low stakes player has to r
Having to quit a session because of a bad beat is tilt, it maybe isn’t as bad as then losing a couple buy ins on speculative stuff but it can be just as damaging if you always do it because you lack the emotional maturity to deal with it. If you end up playing less hours because you can’t deal with reality, that is tilt
Not tilting would be you just keep going as normal, something I’d expect most pros to do. Maybe not 1-2 pros but any serious pro needs to be able to do this or it’ll really effect their bottom line because bad beats or un lucky things that happen that cause you to lose hands or money happen ~every session

But he waited a long time for those aces!
here's a poker vlogger story that seems a bit fishy
so Fischi had a nice session where he won about $2K, got to his car and claims he was driving home with over $4K on his lap. got into an accident (one car), got out to inspect, and in the process lost his $4K cash which he didn't notice apparently fell off his lap. searched the area for an extended period of time unable to find the money.
believes there's a stash of his cash somewhere along the highway, Fargo-esque
He claimed it was his entire bankroll which I was shocked by.

Except the 200k guy probably made 20 grand in equity on his house. And maxed out his 401k, plus employer matching.
The boss cheating him was probably overtime. Diesel didn't even know how it was calculated until this forum explained it to him last year.

And the landlord not returning his deposit, who can blame him? Can you imagine the stench that would be baked into the place?
I'd rather have a pack-a-day smoker as a tennant than Rice with his repulsive food odours combined with the stench of his never washed clothes. Not to mention his human pelt and fur that he doesn't believe needs to be disposed of.

This is so wrong. Bad beats are NEVER supposed to happen. And aces are supposed to win 100% of the time.
If you get bad beats and ever lose with aces it means you run worse than anyone!
Is Kyle F really that desperate for views that he would like about that? Idk. Call me gullible but it seems like an unnecessary lie.
As for Rice leaving the table after the AA hand I don't think it is as bad as everyone here seems to think. I mean guy plays a lot of hours most weeks in Vegas. Cutting a session short when you aren't feeling it doesn't seem like an awful idea. Great thing about poker is it's one long session and there is always a game tomorrow.

chip i'm sorry, i have nothing but love for you, we've never met in person but you seem like a great guy and i've never heard anyone say great things about you as a person
but this was literally your problem
you have an entire thread talking about how you were a winning player but just couldn't get in enough hours to make it work as you'd spend more than you brought in
and now here you are posting about how you should happily cut sessions early and play again another day despite that's literally why earlier in this very thread you asked us to cashapp you some money for dinner
it really feels like you're never going to improve your situation because you absolutely refuse to accept how you treat things leads to failure and thus adapt - i really hope you can take a beat, think this whole "justifying failure" thing through a minute and realize that failure is avoidable if you stop repeating the same mistakes of the past
