Who is this TESLA guy on the Lodge Stream?

There’s this new guy who goes by TESLA who has been playing absolutely crazy on the Lodge Stream.
Anybody know his background or who he is?

He made a bunch of crazy plays today and yesterday going all in and bluffing 3 streets.
It’s been a while since there has been someone so entertaining on these poker streams.

For those who haven’t seen it, definitely go look at the Lodge Stream from today and yesterday.
He makes Doug Polk fold in a huge pot on the river, so crazy.

Like Bildo on the old TCH Dallas streams 😃

Really does have the feel of a long line of Randos showing up and punting on streams/shows. 6 months later, "Remember that guy... he lost like $800,000 in a few months? He just got arrested..."


Watched it. The hand he got Polk to fold when Doug showed the 9 high flush and he showed Doug the 2 was epic


Tesla's terribad... but he's lucky.
better lucky than good.

If luck keeps happening consistently over a large sample size is it luck or funny business?


Maybe he got lucky on tesla stock

don’t hint at this pre emptively man, it serves no purpose


Alex called him James after the bluff


A ****ing legend that's who.

Was mainly talking about previous situations.


All these games in texas have revealed a new type of poker player. First you had the fish. Then you had the chinese whales. Now you have the oil barrons. These guys have infinite money from their inheritance and can splash around like crazy.


I like the way he plays poker. Very interesting to watch !!!


Sometimes when he turns his cards over it seems like he is looking around for approval and has no idea what his hand is.


If you have spent any significant time in TX, private or public games, it doesn’t take an “oil baron” to play like this, its usually a few at the table any given time.

Granted they may not last long, but splashy play is standard, it makes playing in the games tougher.

Better name: Oil CAN lol


sounds like a rich degen, i approve

a few at a 2/5 nl table is one thing - the kind of money he's punting with is something different entirely.

Yeah this.

Every room you go there is always 1 or 2 players who are known as the money guys who punt a few $k every session at 1/3 or 2/5. People like Tesla who punt tens of thousands into the 6 figures at these stakes in poker rooms just don't come around often.


Terrible player. Funny that he wrote on twitter that he ran bad lmao

I have to give props to Doug Polk for the vibe he manages to create consistently on The Lodge. It is so much better than at HCL its incredible.

If I were a terrible rich rec like Tesla or Texas Mike and had the choice of going to The Lodge or HCL it would be the easiest choice ever. At The Lodge they are actually having fun. At HCL you have a bunch of surly regs tanking.

a 10 vpip guy who owns the show and tanks ever single hand he plays when he faces a bet for more than 5 big blinds as he disgustingly gets a massage. just brutal.




by rickroll k

at least they save money on massage oil

It's shocking, but blowing thru 450k will net you some popularity at a poker table.

You gotta balance your denial range.
