What a sick plot twist this could be.

Diesel finds out how much dealers can make and starts dealing. Then he trashes the 1-3 NL grinders cause they can only make $14/hr, while chasing promos and comps while he makes $30+/hr dealing, has health insurance and benefits and a steady income.

Those miserable grinders.

He's done a video where he counted the dealer tips in various locations and gave us a guestimate on their earnings. It was like 35/hr he said so he knows that they make nearly triple his income.

Becoming a dealer, and making too much money, would screw up Rice's retirement time-line.


The marketing whizzes at the Orleans would be fools to miss out on this opportunity.

Plus, I bet rice is great with seniors. A lot of them can't hear that well

From the shape of his bald skull, Rice was dropped on it at a very young age.


Chef El Diesel is back at it again. This time taking advantage of a proper kitchen he has to share with multiple other guests at an Airbnb. He must feel like a King having access to such modern conveniences even for a brief moment, instead of relying solely upon a rice cooker in the bathroom.

This has got to be some of the most dry looking meatloaf I've ever seen. And who makes meatloaf and mash potato without some gravy?

He has never been trained or dealt before but he knows one thing, he wants as many double shifts as possible. I wouldn't wish a double shift in a busy room on my worst enemy. lol

Many years ago when I dealt, one of my days was Saturday night 6pm to 2am, but the degens would never leave in this busy room and that would routinely turn into 6pm to 6am or sometimes 7am when the morning shift came in. It was hell that day, but made good money.

Looks like my stool after eating too many granola bars the day before without any water for 24 hours

There's a 1925 movie classic "Battleship Potemkin" where sailors riot over the quality of their rations which look strikingly similar to the one in the photo

100 years later, in a first world country, Rice is happily making and consuming this stuff


Maybe add some ketchup packets?

The only X response to his meatloaf post is “absolutely disgusting”. This dude thinks he is achieving next level in every aspect of his life. The rest of the world is wth. How do you get that disconnected??

Orlean's OMCs are going to eat him alive.

My mistake.

I thought it was the fossilized dino shyt at the Smithsonian.

The double shift thing is hilarious.

He's never dealt a hand in his life. Rather than start to mix in dealing part time to supplement his poker earnings, he needs to be full time for 6 weeks, as many double shifts and 100 hour weeks as possible, or he doesn't deal it all. And of course this is all talk, he'll never actually work a regular job if he doesn';t have to.

.....acquired from a buffet. El Diesel might lack basic necessities but there is no way he doesn't own several packets of every condiment known to man.

He doesnt even play all that much poker to begin with, he pretends hes a super grinder, but he plays a normal professional volume of poker, he isnt a super grinder, that is a fake made up thing because i think, if i were to guess why he thinks hes a super grinder and acts like one, is because most 1-2 players are very unserious players and ones trying to be "pros" play like 10-20 hours a week, like trooper when he was trying to be a pro, so in comparison to people like this, he plays alot, but to actual poker professionals or anyone actually taking it seriously, he does not.

Diesel's #1 option for WSOP is to deal at The Orleans and live there and work a bunch of double shifts. lol

Not sure why no mention of dealing the actual WSOP, unless I missed it when skimming.

He also mentions how people love when he makes the 3-finger sign as he does it. Do people mention that in the comments, or just here?

I think he gave up on the idea of WSOP because someone said they don't allow beards. Orleans overall pay would be a lot higher if they give you a room every day. It's like an extra 40 or 50 bucks a day and that's not including resort fee.

When it comes to volume (hours), people vastly overestimate their ability to work.
Rice will never start, and if by some small chance he does, he'll quit, and come up with a conspiracy theory on how they forced him out, because he was the best dealer in the joint.

Hence why Rice is fantasizing over dealing there. As a homeless Nomad, Rice has a raging hard-on for cheap/discounted rooms, let alone free!


by iwasbanned

Normally I would agree with you, but I have a hunch Rice's car reliability is starting to slip.
My hunch is he goes to Phoenix for a week or two, doesn't like the games because there's too much action, and goes scurrying back to Vegas.
Lots of assumptions on my part.

Based o a very small sample size, they are a lot more competent there than in Vegas. That was Talking Stick. Never played at the new Wild Horse, just the old one near the freeway.

I would kinda like to see that. That's entertainment!

I'd have to learn 7 stud again tho, ugh.


I'm starting to feel bad for rampage tbh. Question guys. How do you think he can afford to lose so much ? Is it

A) he's staked and has very little of his own money on the table

B) he earns an insane amount of money from all his referrals

C) rich parents

D) crypto

E) a combination of the above


At least we can count on Rampage to tell us how he lost his money and tell us about some poker hands.

Does he delete comments and ban people? People rip him in the comment section so he doesn’t seem to be obsessively policing his own comment section.

I like how Diesel laughs at people saying he makes $8/hr at poker when we're not far off. It's hard to win money at poker when not only do you hardly play hands, you average 1.4 hands won per hour and some hands being preflop.There is no way he's making more than $8/hr strictly from poker and not including in promo money. It's not a surprise he plays enough hours twice a week

I remember in one of his early videos he said he made $11.66 an hour in Vegas low stakes games, which was lower than what he made anywhere else. I can’t remember how many hours that was, but a lot of those results happened when rake in Vegas was lower and players were at least a little bit worse.

I always thought higher rake would affect people like him the most, so it shocked me when he said he didn’t worry about higher rake.


El Diesel was friendly to me when I asked him questions on a couple of different occasions. I wasn’t praising him or hating on him; was just curious and he responded.

I rarely leave comments on his videos though.

I'd say a combination of A,B,D and he also has other lucrative income streams from YouTube, merch sales, sponsors/affiliates etc.

I'm not aware of any indication that he had family money to start of with when he was coming up playing live 1/3 and 2/5

I think he just ran insanely hot at the right time and he had the balls to run it up and play higher and higher stakes. I assume that now when he plays he would be heavily staked to limit his risk.
