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!
Dude, we get it - if not needed in tournaments, you check with cash; if cash doesn't need dealers, you check with the tournament area. WE GET IT.
This is awesome. The other hilarious thing is this verbal pattern of his:
"From now on, when I finish up dealing cash, before I leave I'm going to ask the tournament side if they need help. So let's say I've just dealt a 9-hour shift of cash. Before I go home, I'm going to head over to the tournament side and ask them if they need any dealers."
"At a red light you stop. At a green light you go. So let's say you're driving your car and you see the light turning red ahead of you, you have to stop. Then you wait and when the light eventually turns green, you can go."
"You're supposed to wait an hour after eating to go swimming. So let's say you're at a bbq and they serve everyone food. You have your burger and your dog. Then you have to wait an hour before you go swimming. After the hour is up, you can go swimming."
"The large fountain soda costs $1.75, and the extra large costs $2. So let's say you're at the convenience store soda fountain. If you choose the large size you will have to pay $1.75. But if you go with the extra large, you will have to pay $2."

This is a manifestation of him thinking he's the smartest guy in the room. When explaining anything he assumes the listener is so dumb there is no way they could understand the concept first time so he needs to repeat.
I also think him holding up fingers when saying numbers as low as one and three is also part of the same phenenom. And when he holds up 3 fingers he obviously does it a very unconventional way
I thought he was upgrading his lifestyle? Cooking rice and adding generic salmon, sounds the same.
New Pman video is out, he continues to bleed money in Tournaments.
Sadly, Rice's professional success is hurting his social media efforts. Dude, we get it - if not needed in tournaments, you check with cash; if cash doesn't need dealers, you check with the tournament area. WE GET IT. Not sure how many days he can keep up vlogging his work day. He's somehow found content less interesting than his challenges.
Fifty.

Did Rice really graduate from Nebraska Law or did Nebraska Law graduate from Rice?

ELD previously made a video of he is the only driver skilled enough to drive given the Las Vegas construction and traffic jams on the strip.
Pman addresses the topic raised by the discussion board:
Hustler Live is whoring themselves with Chinese only at the table to increase foreign views at the expense of the Mandarin deficient.
As much needling as I've given to Diesel about his poker game and his desire to grind out a living from mostly promos, I'm impressed that not only has he been sticking to the dealing grind, he seems to enjoy it.
While I don't see him getting a job at one place, he does have a great opportunity to become a traveling tourney dealer and pick and choose when and how often he wants to deal.
That's a great end game for him honestly.
Pman addresses the topic raised by the discussion board:
Its kind of sad that PMans dad apparently thinks his son isnt capable of anything more than sleeping and being a degen fish 10-12 hours a week. His family seems to treat him as if he has Downs Syndrome and its just a great thing he can live on his own and have a few friends.
Of all the times when Trooper decides to quit (take a break?) from poker he does it during the WSOP where his fans have repeatedly shown they will put him in whatever tournament he wants as a freeroll.
How very odd and funny
He could have been playing in his 10th main event this year (since the poker world discovered his vlog in late 2014).
Lol at Rice getting mad respect ITT for finally figuring out about earning money from working a regular job dealing cards. Something that most of us were saying all along... that he could make about 5 times as much money by just sitting on the other side of the table. And with no losing days/weeks to cause him mental breakdowns.
The remarkable thing is that after 20 years dominating academics, plan A was to be a min stakes promo grinder/nomad, and plan B was this.
I guess he deserves a little pa
We’ve seen stories of other people that keep doing the same thing over and over with the same terrible results, so it’s great to see El Diesel take a positive step and succeed at what he is doing so far.
You have to be pretty broke and unaccustomed to having money to post your income on the internet and not realize its poor form. But good for Diesel....
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.
I think he's what you get when you have a parent with money who just Nerf's their life for them. Did he really make any money in Bitcoin? Pman tries to appear like he's just got this well of crypto he can pull whenever he's short on cash. Yet, he can't even fund himself to play any tourneys this summer.
He's shown by his overall -EV gambling (pits, punting in tourneys, sports bets) that he doesn't respect money. And sadly, that's because when he punts in a tourney, there's always another buyin being provided by daddy.

Yeah, also this. Its not very believeable that this kind of stuff is coming from a guy well off with a 100K plus portfolio to his name.
He is behaving in a way that make me think he isnt accustomed to having money at all really.
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.
What about Pman suggests that he'd take a harder route in order to reach his goal?
It’s a lot easier to be compassionate when the person is not telling you that you are a miserable loser and how you’re an idiot for spending so much money on comforts and food and laundry when you could just eat from the sewer and live in a van down by the river
Will he have his expenses creep up now that he’s experienced the finer things in life that come with the wealth you earn as a part time dealer at the orleans
Maybe, but it's also pretty easy to see that all his smug talk is just him trying to hide his insecurity.
anchovies and mayonnaise... what else does a body need!
Rice does have a good opportunity to become a traveling tournament dealer and pick and choose when, and how often, he wants to deal.
That's a good end game for Rice.
I definitely see Rice becoming a nomadic tournament dealer, if he can complete this "The 2024 Orleans Summer Poker Open" 50 day event, without an 'incident' sending him to the rails.
“Yesterday’s event was paused for an hour to resolve a dispute between a player and the dealer on table 19 over the final result of 1983’s “Pine Tar Game” which led to the immediate termination of the dealer.”
