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!
Diesel in shambles. Dave Portnoy reviewed Wawa pizza. Mentioned Casey’s General Store. Also calls them gas station pizza. Portnoy’s score is what you would expect for a place Diesel idolizes.
No one goes to Wawa for pizza.
Rice admitted he skipped Wawa on this AC trip due to the prices being too high. Apparently $9 for a hoagie is too expensive. He prefers when they are on sale for $6. Most hoagies I see are in the $12-$15 range. Wawa is still a decent value.

I don't know how he diesel does it man.. I don't know if his lifestyle is the better one or my crazy one.. I don't think we are either capable of living each other's life. so as they say , to each their own..
he is wrong on the mailing address thing . if you are in long island city .. just using queens and your zip code is enough.. just like if you live in Harlem you don't have to put Harlem. NY,NY is enough
technically you can omit the city and state altogether and it will still be delivered if the zip code is correct
sending to PO Box only requires 9 digit Zip+4, you don't even need to put the name on it
I guess what I'm trying to say was long Island City isn't a city or a town like say most of other places in the USA but you right.

I love how Diesel roasted a guy in his mean comments videos for doing a simple multiplication problem but here's Diesel explaining the 123 Main St part of an address is your house number and street.
But I guess people that don't play poker but watch his vlogs wouldn't know that thus his detailed explanation.
I also love how Diesel is a stickler for punctuation, spelling and the correct usage of a word but using the current name of a business or pronunciation of Nevada is somehow a-ok.

For Rice its not about the quality of food its about the price.
59cent a pound black bananas are better the normal bananas at 69cents a pound. Value.
A 3 day old Wawa sub at $6 is better than a freshly made $9 sub.
Its a sickness.
In law school it is taught it is better to litigate a car accident for two years than to go to a pick a part junkyard and buy a new fender and replace it in two hours.
here's another example of a vlogger playing in a stand-up/squid game causing them to make terrible decisions.
in an attempt to avoid paying out $4,500, Rampage decides to play a hand 92s for $39,000 instead. you won't believe what happens next
this was after jamming with Q7o earlier
Rampage dusts off $160,000 across two days in like four hours he says
dumbest and worst poker player ever
Thanks for posting this. I don’t watch his vlog regularly. After your post, I watched the whole video. At one point maybe a year ago, he was down 1 million dollars and had a challenge to get it all back. I didn’t watch the follow up videos. Did he complete that challenge and win that money back? It’s interesting how unbothered he looks calling and shoving all his chips for these amounts of money with bad/marginal hands. I have to assume he has so much more in the bank somehow. I saw the very end of the video but something doesn’t add up.

Yes it's all very fishy. Who knows what % he actually has of himself or what deals he has in place. Who knows how much all his combined income streams are. I have to believe he has set himself up financially for life. If he hasn't done so then he is way dumber than all the other losers we clown on daily in this thread.

Rampage claims he was down $1M for 2023 and that's why he did this "challenge" for 2024. I think at times he got up to like +$250K, but according to this video, which was the end of 2024, he was cumulatively down about $100K for the year with hopes to get back even, but then he went another -$160K in two short sessions here.
so from the table he was way down six digits. don't know how much of that is his own, and that's not taking into account sponsorships, YouTube revenue, and side ventures like pokerbros. several years ago he was pumping out a handful of videos a week but this year is only put out 1-2 full length videos per month so his YT revenue is not growing.
I don't follow him closely but his videos and Twitter are pretty sporadic now so the pieces aren't difficult to put together
This from the guy who stated he isn't effected by inflation with a smug look on his face.
Law degree or not, he’s still as dumb or dumber than Candy Man.
The only people that inflation doesn’t affect are the ones with FU money, and he ain’t that. He has to wait 3 days for a sandwich to get marked down 3 bucks.
His love of expired food is a sickness. And the inevitable vlog where he vomits in every corner of his free room at Harrah’s will be must not watch content. But he’ll put it out there.
HG Podcaster the undisputed expert in tier points, does interview with Destination Jackpot and states he quit his job to support himself with video poker and miles and tier points:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uPdDCw7...
While not technically a Nomad he is on cruises and hotel stays more often than at his apartment.
For AC he recommends staying at Harrahs but going to Borgata Amphora lounge to eat for $12.50 in comps.
He states he is Diamond Plus at CET and still retained his four drinks per day since he plays video poker. Video poker combined with 10X multiplier and CET credit card is the most efficient way to Diamond tier as opposed to actual poker.
He states it is possible to get free gasoline and Platinum or Gold tier buying Draft Kings gift cards using MGM mastercard earning 2X tier and fuel points.
Take the Hard Rock Icon card and match to Ocean AC to get two free nights at Wynn.
I disagree, I bet if we polled 100 people a majority would agree that they would not want their life's savings that they hoped to leave behind for their kids be lost paying for their late stage dementia when they didnt even know their own name much less if they even had kids.
I know I'd be pissed if all my money that I wanted to pass on to my kids was wasted like that.
They can make that decision beforehand. It's not like one day you're perfectly normal and healthy and the next day you have late s
This is what confuses me, I am NOT saying the kids should be entitled to their parents' money. Not at all. I'm guessing this board skews young and that's why they see it from the kid's perspective.
I'm talking about as a Dad, if all my hard work led to a nice pile of money that I spent my lifetime trying to build so I could leave behind for my kids to help jump start their adult lives got spent on me in just two short years while I was a vegetable and didnt even know I had kids anymore? I'd be annoyed "AF" (as the kids say)
I love my kids that much, that I dont want them to waste a big pile of money on me when it literally is helping no one. (Except maybe the health care industry which rakes in trillions in end of life care) I work my entire life to help them and then it goes to some old folks home/hospital for what? To keep my organs alive but I've been gone months ago? So, now I drag out the dying process and pain on my kids ANNNNNNNNNNNND I dont get to leave behind an inheritance I worked 50 years on? F-that! I have to turn it over to a corporation so some CEO gets a $30mil bonus?
This is hardly a controversial attitude or belief.
If you see it like this "do you think the kids should kill off their parents so they get that juicy inheritance and not use it for their parents end of life care?" OF COURSE that looks stupid. In this example you're assuming they kids are screwing over the parents. That the kids are moving this forward.
I'm saying, if you look at it from a parent's perspective, who loves their kids and is dedicated to making their lives as great as possible, and you build up say $1.5mil and then all of it lost when it didnt have to be . . .
I'm not surpised though, this board does nuance about as well as a bulldozer.
Maybe some of you dont realize how evil dementia is. I have a colleague whose Dad was in late stage dementia and Dad kept trying to make out with her when she would visit. Like just unreal stuff happens. You want to be kept alive so you can leave your kids with those final memories? Go read some articles about how horrific dementia gets.
Someone once told me, "if you watch someone you love die of dementia it makes you jealous of those who's loved ones died of heart attacks"
But to each their own.
I know the main focus is on how Pman sucks, and El Disiel is a mentally ill pauper, but...
Jamie Staples, wth? Looks like he's put on 100 lbs, and completely fell off. Am I right? I still follow him on Twitch, saw he was live and decided to click. Barely 100 viewers and looks like he's been down in the donuts hardcore. Yes I'm fat shaming.
I'm here for Trooper updates

If thats true, its pretty sad story imo. He and his brother was binking the bet with Perkins a few years back, and Jaime lost alot of weight I was hoping that he was going to continue on the healthier path after winning the bet, but i guess not.
my grandmother had dementia that grew into Alzheimer's. for the last 4 years or so my mother took care of her. she was the happiest dementia victim ever and the sweetest grandma in the world, and hung in there healthy as a horse until she caught covid and couldn't kick it.
I don't have a great love for my mom but I am so grateful that she took care of my Grammy for those several difficult years.
I couldn't imagine just letting her expire prematurely just because she had dementia and/or Alzheimer's.
