Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs

Does Pman actually think he has supporters that will buy all his action? Based on his vlog views, I always thought he was a creature built by pure 2p2 trolling, all his viewers are 2p2ers that know he isn’t good at poker and he knows we all know. I guess he thinks there’s some meat on the bone to sell action at unjustified mark up or Pman is even dumber than I originally thought.

Each casino likely has an employee dining room, cannot think of why one would not.

OTOH, I recall when Vegas World did not even have a restaurant, which was a requirement for a Hotel Casino license. They had a "restaurant", but no kitchen. So they took orders and ran next door to buy food from a Chinese takeout place.

Another example, from the other side of town was Vacation Village, which at one point lacked a working kitchen, but persuaded a Denny's to open. The employee dining room was a space on the second floor in a former nightclub.

Finally, there was the Klondike on the Strip which gae away free roast chicken dinners to pretty much any local with a mailbox in Henderson (They were decent meals.)

Trooper never disappoints.
So today, June 10th, Trooper released a video on his SPRKLi YouTube channel.
And at the end of the video, Trooper advertises his upcoming 'Farmers markets'
Well Trooper is advertising his 'Farmers markets' for June 5th and 6th and his video didn't drop till today, June 10th.
It just goes to show you how lazy this guy is.
Oh, Trooper is also talking about looking for a commercial kitchen, when he's going into the slow hot as hell season, where he'll be lucky to have two markets a week where he sells anything.
I swear playing poker makes people delusional and lazy.

it's the other way around

delusional and lazy people are often hooked on the poker pro lifestyle because to them it looks like an endless source of easy money where they can "set their own schedule and be their own boss"

when it turns out it's not quite like that, they are too lazy and delusional to cut their losses and move on, so they linger around relying on handouts from the family and general public

You maybe confuse correlation with causation.

It seems as likely that being delusional and lazy leads some percentage of people to play poker

OK the 'scientists' will say there’s more correlation involved, but a lifetime of observation leads me to believe there’s plenty of causation involved too.
It's not like Trooper, Pman, El Diesel, and Bikeking were lazy before poker.

He has canceled his attempts at getting staked. Says they were done in a state of delirium caused by his insomnia. Anyone wanna translate what that really means.

He says he will put them up again later. Perhaps he thinks he was being overly generous in his insomnia induced state of delirium.

I like how he ends the tweet with a laughing emoji like asking for thousands of dollars is a joke. Glad he's not taking any of this seriously, the staking package or his poker play.

My gosh, if there's anyone that should leave social media forever it's Pman.

He doesn’t like getting called out for trying to freeroll people foolish enough to back him.

If you rocket off 37BB in level 3 of a live donkament with TT, charging 1.25 is 100% delusional.

I've heard that legal store-bought "insomnia" is much more powerful than traditionally grown "insomnia".

Daily deepstacks were made for guys like pman, and I don't necessarily mean that as an insult. It's a lower buy-in level where you can sharpen your skills until you're ready for tougher events. Makes very little sense to try to sell for $1ks when you can just have 100% of yourself in much softer events (albeit with worse rake). According to Hendon, he has 12 career cashes. One run represents 86% of his winnings. He has never cashed a $1k+ event. He probably should not be trying to sell for a WSOP schedule. My 2 cents. He doesn't have enough good results to show that he can consistently get in a position to win big $$$ in a tough event.

If I were him I would go radio silent on social media, put my head down, and just play Resorts World dailies or Daily Deepstacks every day with a focus on process. Then when you feel like you're crushing that level, consider moving up. If you look at someone like Stephen Song, he didn't start taking shots at $25ks after binking one good score. He built up a bunch of results until he started trying a higher level. Same with a lot of guys like Bin Weng, Andrew Ostapchenko, and Dan Sepiol who have fired a $25k this year at WSOP. They proved they could consistently be competitive at a lower level before trying to step up, not after one result.

Great advice to a logical person with a strong work ethic. Sadly none of this will be applied by Pman

When you’re busto, you can’t play dailies.
Why else would you sell 80% at 1.25?
No job, no roll, no backers.

Pman knows a few tourney crushers and Eric Persson. He's been "coached" and has messed around with solvers. He's tweeted at famous poker players. Several of them!

What more do you need to see from him? He's ready. The grind starts now!

Some people wanna be poker, and some people want the "clout" associated with being a "poker player." It's a completely different personality dynamic.

Working hard to get to the top is for suckers. Pman just needs prayers and stakes.

Pman should cut his expenses and can probably save thoudsands in rent by the nomadic methods.

Further tutorial videos such as calcium supplements to mitigate the milkshake apocolypse, the fanny pac as the new buffet accessory, how to open a PO Box to receive casino marketing mailers, best boondocking locations near the strip, and weekend challenge at Pilot truck stop and Cracker Barrel -- would be must watch videos.

Agree. If nothing else they build poker stamina for those multi-day events when it's time for them. They often have a longer poker day than WSOP events, running 14 to 16 hours or more, with no dinner break. If you can maintain concentration through those, bracelet events will seem easy in comparison.

PMan is a proven bad player but the criticism of that 1010 hand is lol. If you want to play a fast moving, huge field tourney and not take that spot early then you have little chance. You can choose to sit back and wait to cooler a player with AA v KK, the rest of us are trying to accumulate chips.

Predatory behavior. Pathetic excuses. No accountability. This guy should be ashamed of himself but he is obviously incapable of shame. The most delusional part of his pattern is that he continues to believe that he’s a good guy.

Rice has changed. Only a week on the job, and he is already cruising around in strange neighborhoods and living it up eating corn dogs at fast food joints. By the end of the month he will probably be popin' bottles in the clubs.

For his sake I hope he keeps this up after the summer.

I also find these vlogs genuinely interesting.

One of the most delusional guys around.... shame he's dull af otherwise could be compelling!

I hope he keeps it up as well.
Before he started dealing I thought there was a good chance this would actually open his eyes to the fact there is way more opportunity out there than his sub min wage poker "pro" career. It was actually sad hearing him think that or some 8 dollar an hour ups job he had was as good as it gets.
