Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs

Rice only discusses results and hand histories from his golden era, when he was earning over $10 per hour from poker. Nothing from the last 3 years worth of poker will ever be divulged on his channel. Anyone that questions him regarding this policy is just being a miserable hater!

1-2NL hands from 2016. There is an audience for this?

Especially in light of the fact that this result is prior to the Nomadic method which was only recently developed by ELD in 2022.

ELD was living in actual housing at the time likely eating at a table and not on the trunk of his car and did not have to grind promos and maximize tier for resort fees waivers.

The current ELD resuts are based in large part on the promos received and tier points earned instead of mere poker strategy which ELD has transcended as part of his Nomadic method.

The low hours is funny because he’s always preaching about how playing a high volume of hours is such an important way to overcome low hourly rate. He can’t even average 35 hours a week.

I can't even imagine the quantities of garbage he's eating regularly besides his bathroom cooking.He seems to walk a lot,doesn't really drink alcohol and he's still super fat .

Probably like some of his challenges where he eats a whole box of pop tarts every day and whatever other low-cost garbage he can buy. lol

He actually uses the poor performance of these videos as an excuse not to discuss more recent hands.

Less than $7 per day for food. I don't know how much sardines cost, but mayo packets are free, and rice is cheap. I'd probably get 3 Hormel microwave meals instead.

Which was a dumb goal. It was a cost center, not a profit center.

If they get a big check, they should buy a truck and deliver FedEx.

ELD is missing out on a significant free resource found in Nomadic hotels, namely ice from the ice machine. Instead of the rice cooker, ELD should be carrying a blender in order to make meal replacement shakes at a discount using the free ice and CVS $2 per half gallon milk.

Mental health problems? Serious

Yeah, i agree and its pretty obvious that Rice isnt doing very well mentally.

He seems to be a little more off the handle lately. He’s not as happy go lucky. I think the lack of four (holds up four fingers) free drinks daily at Caesars is getting to him.

diesel had a nice bluff in his recent vid.

If he does that once a week instead of once a year his hourly will soar!

oh wait nm, he's talking about a hand from the past

He seemed to be doing so well with the dealer job during wsop I was really hoping he'd turn things around.

He was putting in a ton of hours and probably making 4-5 times as much dealing as playing. He also hates those pesky one buy in down swings.

It's not like his hourly playing is close to what he makes dealing or he's only been playing for a short time and thinks he can improve as a poker player. At some point you are what you are as far as a winner in poker and he's long past that point.

the 4 free drinks made him feel important in life, not being able to get a law job, being disrespected and underappreciated by all his former employers didn't matter because he was a VIP that could hand out fiji waters on command.

I genuinely think this was one of the most devastating things to happen to him in his life.

I'm surprised people watch his videos daily these days, his content is so boring now and he will never change. It's just the same recycled content over and over.

If you dislike Diesel then the best thing you can do is not give him views.

I don't dislike him but I don't find his vlogs entertaining anymore.

so diesel is like 5'6 250lbs and the sad thing is he's taller and more in shape than 99% of his viewers.

Trooper Thursday demographic is probably an accurate representation of the types that watches his vlogs daily.

It’s been a multi-month crisis since that AA hand.

It's probably the 2nd most traumatic thing to have ever happened to him. The professors not following the rubric with the moot court definitely still in #1 spot. I mean that was responsible for him deciding he never wanted to practice law.

#3 would probably be the Red Rock AA massacre. That along with losing the drink vouchers is what led to him realizing that Vegas was no longer fit for purpose as a home-base for him plying the Nomadic method.

Wasn’t the Red Rock Massacre like a $160 loss? To let that uproot your life is really sad. He could probably benefit from a heavy dose of therapy. Somethings up with him.

It was the perfect storm. It happened in his first hour on the penultimate day of his hours challenge. He said that people who don't understand his frustration it's because they don't play in Vegas. Rice was adamant that it would be impossible for him to win that amount back even if he grinded hard for the next 10 hours straight.

Firstly that's irrelevant. Money that is already won or lost has nothing to do with the equation going forward. Anyone that calls themselves a professional poker player or professional gambler should be very aware of this.

Secondly, if true it is only because of his insanely tight play. He knows he only is playing AA which is just ridiculous. That's why it affects him so badly when he gets the one hand he is waiting for (AA) he gets the action that he wants, but still ends up losing. In this case it was even worse because he tried to bluff the guy off top set and he was livid when the guy had the audacity of not folding. See his last 2 videos for examples from 2016 when he ran successful bluffs lol

In Trooper's video today titled "The Hurdles of Starting a Business" he says if they didn't have to be at Enchant everyday selling then they could have made more than enough product. lol

They paid 4k to be there the entire time.

He says he makes the best brittle ever made; he challenges anyone to make it as good as him.

He says everyone in the business world is liars and cheaters, nobody does what they say they will.

He says he had to keep LT from losing it during this ordeal and he guarantees they will come out on top and be a success.

And anyone that is waiting for them to fail, has a long wait ahead of them.

He's such a tough guy!
