Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs

So much to unpack from Hamster97 last vlog/rant,even though it has been done alot of good work here in the thread since he put that video up.

I dont really know where to start, cause there is so much to dive into so i just leave it at that for now. My god is this guy delusional.

How would he get any insurance from this? Is he also getting a job that would give him those things?

Trooper said he has lost interest/passion for poker in his last rant, and that he would certainly play if he could play 2008 Planet Hollywood poker. Yeah woudnt we all?

Let me translate since he has such a hard time saying it out loud himself without a ton of other BS explenations: i cant beat the games anymore. Before i was winning, but now the game has changed over time and other players have become better while i find myself at the same spot not working on my game.

I understand Hamster, its no fun playing when you are losing and cant beat the games. But it has nothing to do with the "games arent fun anymore" like you claim.

In today's video, Rice drives a little out of the way to dip down into Mississippi for the first time in his life to Horn Lake, MS.

Meanwhile he is only 30 minutes from Tunica, MS. why the hell not go there for a day and play poker?

He has also never been to Florida, wow, why not take a week or more and travel thru Florida, hitting Tampa and Hollywood area and playing poker at dozens of poker rooms some time?

The game he describes at Winstar, ULA (Ultimate Last Action) sounds messed up. Button straddle gets last action even if someone raises first, apparently they love it at Winstar.

I left a comment on his video advising him not to come to Florida, the games are too good and he might get stuck a buy in or two. He told me to stop being miserable [emoji14]

Maybe Diesel is scared of too much action games in Florida? Just throwing it out there, as we know he is scared to death of swingy games that could end with him losing more than 200 bucks in a session.

If he was looking for good games he should have a roundtrip in Texas too, as there is alot of action there. But from what i understand these games plays deep,having lots of big pots,straddles and lots of swings so that is not something Diesel can handle. Hashtag pokerpro, hashtag pokerlife.

Lol, classic. I was shadowbanned a while back, because he loses his shyt completely if he recieves any kind of feedback that doesent agree with everything he does.

Its funny too because i saw another poster in the comments asking Diesel why he pretty much never see any of those "mean,stupid wrong" comments. That is simply because Diesel shadowbans people even quicker than his idol the Trooper if he gets any kind of resistance/pushback on any given topic.

Diesel would be fckn annihilated in Texas games. So, come on down donkey!

Yeah we’ve gone back and forth a few times, I’m shocked he hasn’t blocked me. I even made one of his recent “let’s read the hater’s comments” vlogs

But I guess he would leave after 18 minutes. Oh well.

Exactly. That is why he has so incredibly few big losing days, because he simply quits if he loses 1 buyin for the most part.

I was hugely disappointed that El Diesel didn’t give us the finger countdown when he listed the last 4 states he’s yet to visit. I kinda lost track of how many he had named without the visual aid.

I was surprised because it was the first time he complained about the rake and he finally realized how much that hurt him.

He basically said it’s only worth playing for him if the tables are full of idiots. But he used to agree with comments that his game was better suited for 2-5 NL against better opposition.

I think his comments support what I thought was a reason he avoids 2-5. Whenever he tries to play it, he quickly realizes the competition is too tough for him and the pros there make him feel like a fish so he drops back down to 1-2 so he can feel like a genius again.

But even small stakes players are better today so poker is less appealing to him if he doesn’t feel smarter than the other players.

He needs to feel like a genius at 1-2 to feed his narcissism.

Agreed about him seem to realize how much the rake/increased rake combined with tougher games is hurting him. I guess he slowly is realizing a few things but is so hard to be honest about given his massive ego/narssistic personality.

The BS about his game being better suited for 2/5 NL or games with better opponents is just another example of Trooper just throwing out convinient stuff to align with the most current narrative. Of course he cant beat 2/5 in Vegas, that is just laughable.

Lol @ his "baseball trips"
Beach/Tropical isn't his thing. Diesels "thing" is travelling back and forth on a plane to see half a baseball game from the nosebleed section.

Agreed.

I got blocked pretty swiftly for a much lesser offence. All I did was question him about the logic behind his baseball trips to watch half a game instead of staying the night and flying back the next day. Apparently I missed the entire point of the exercise which was for him to avoid paying for a hotel!

Because he is so obsessed with avoiding paying for accomodation,so yeah lol at "baseball trips".

More like "i cant bring myself to pay for a bed/shower" type of trip,so am staying up for 48 hours until i am so dead tired that i am close to passing out.

Hawaii is super nice. It's also super expensive and that's coming from someone who has lived in NY most of their life (which according to Rice also makes me an expert driver even better than the F1 pros)
No way in hell he's ever going somewhere that expensive.

Trooper and Diesel get snubbed. I never even heard of 2 of them, and a blank space gets nominated over them. lol

Marle crushing the nominations.

Poker twitter unrelenting in trying to convince people Marle, Caitlin and Nikki Limo are funny. None of you can hold Jamie's jock.

No idea who Corey Eyring is so maybe his vlog is good who knows but he has zero chance to win. I no longer watch Rampage or Mariano (or Wolfgang for that matter) since they turned to mostly live stream recap videos but surprised Rampage especially wasn't nominated again. Although I doubt he wins but it doesn't seem fair to the rest who do it year round to put Dnegs in with them. Jaman needs an award for the production/editing. Extra credit for not falling into the live stream trap I mentioned above like almost all of the other popular vloggers have. Seems like Brad should have this category on lockdown but I think Rampage's sun run last year included the GPI award?

corey has been shared here a few times, he's that guy who uses clever clickbait titles that outright lies - it's good in that it gets attention but bad in the sense that it's so over the top that you feel cheated after watching it

title "poker vloggers are lying" - actual video = poker vlogs are highlights of the session and not every hand - no **** sherlock

title "i got robbed" - actual video = guy hits a 7 outer on the river of a big pot, "robbing" me of what i should have won

title "i gamble with my entire net worth in vegas" - actual video = gets invited to play on a stream and host stakes him because he's busto and can't afford it otherwise, the stake amount is bigger than his entire net worth

pretty sure the host posts on 2p2 because that same stream go posted in the mamacita scam thread because she played in it and there was talk of it being 2p2 people in the game - stream is absolute nuts

anyway - dude is not worth watching - don't like his content either and he tries to force in a lot of jokes which doesn't work because he's barely one level above marle in the humor department

They should have a Razzies version of these awards.

Haven't heard Jamie at all but Nikki Limo has at least mildly funny. The other 2 you mentioned are horribly unfunny.

how are you a poker pro in vegas and can't win? I've never played in a game in Vegas without multiple idiots at the table just handing out money.
