I personally am not going to allow a lot of the horrible posting that went on in the original thread to take place and I will be very generous with post deletions and bans if needed.

If any accounts persistently do this they will be banned or exiled from posting in this thread. In these cases we may issue a warning first.
Accounts that are used only to or substantially to troll post in this thread will be banned.

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!
It was taken away from a minority abusing the system. Those that went to the casino for the sole purpose of obtaining free drinks then not playing at all that day. Or those that would get free drinks at 1145pm and then again at 1215 am the next day and not play or spend any money at all. Rice regularly abused the system, then gloated about it on social media.
I guess Diesel hasn't figured out that casinos are for profit and will show any grifter the door without hesitation or warning.
Exactly. Would be quite surprised if anyone had it revoked who was using it normally as intended.
People like Rice, for whom it was a substitute for their entire daily nutrition were the ones who found out that it was gone when they went for there daily rations at 12.01am on the first day of the month.
Lol why is your beef with Caesars? I'd be happy that they cleared the ranks of all the grubs. By being a bit more selective/targeted with their rewards it should improve things for everyone else. Next logical step is for them to do the same thing with the waived resort fees.
Caesars and MGM are pure dirtbag companies.
Lol yeah fair enough, but it's not related to them cutting off voucher drinks to people like Rice.
I only visit caesars properties a couple of trips per year, never use a players card and never stay where I play so largely unaffected by all the politics.
I channelled my inner rice at an airport lounge yesterday by using a bowl intended for soup to fill with curry as the plates were so tiny they would hold only a few spoonfuls. Then when it was time to board I wrapped a brownie in napkins and put it in my bag along with a can of soda water to consume on the plane.
But did you grab the decorative head of garlic to barter with the guy next to you for his pretzels?
I appreciate the response, but that name is not ringing a bell. He took down all of his poker videos from Youtube years ago. The last video of his that I saw, he was playing mini golf in his backyard. Anyway, maybe it will come to me one day.

Now you just need a Spirit $9 fare to Phoenix for the endless supply of comped food.

That’s 100% the guy from Southern Indiana that started a thread in PG&C about 10 years ago. He owned a small apartment building but eventually sold it. He took that money and gambled it in the stock market. He was buying risky stocks on margin and was early on a couple that would later blow up. He got ate up with margin calls though and missed out on potentially MILLIONS because of it. He’s gone busto or close to it several times. He got tied up in the GameStop/meme frenzy and when Robin Hood shut down trading he went nuts and even drove to California to protest outside Robin Hood HQ. He eventually started building a roll back in his portfolio and got lucky on a speculative crypto investment and ran it up to just over $1M. He didn’t lock it up and eventually lost about 70% of it before finally cashing out. He took the proceeds and paid cash for a house, leaving himself with practically nothing. He’s continued to grind poker,has built custom putting greens and painted custom basketball courts since then and has split up and got back together with his wife and they currently are back together in a house he bought last year. He’s in the process of building a pickle ball court and is documenting the progress.
Rice responds to criticism that he is a nit because he doesn't like playing short handed by saying people don't actually enjoy playing short handed. Out of 100 people who say they enjoy playing short handed only 2 really mean it and the rest are lying apparently.
I must've imagined full ring games practically dying out online many years ago as everyone headed to the short handed games.
Haha are you serious? The VAST majority of poker players, that is, the entire pool of poker players that fill the rooms around the country, don't like to play short-handed. Short-handed in my opinion is < 8 players, or < 7 players for extended periods of time.
You mean poker players as a group aren't generally
1. "very annoying", and
2. an "odd group of people" ?
Poker players tend to skew type A, arrogant, loud, and socially awkward. Also, when you put 90 - 95% male in a room together, things don't tend to turn out well. You need women to calm things.
Pman who is an early adopter of bitcoin should have no issues paying for his own buy-ins.
He also is good at poker so he should easily win a bracelet this year and win that bet.
The rich get richer!

lol, "pickle ball" , the game for people too slow or out of shape for tennis, squash, badminton, handball, racquet ball, table tennis, four-square, double-dutch, etc.
Not vlogging. Not playing. And making prop bets for events he can't afford to buy into without backers.
What's next? Finding a partner with a home based candy business and living off of her?

I admittedly have not been following the pman saga, but
Didn't he have a legit, poker-related job at the Sahara ? What happened ?

Quit immediately after coming 2nd in the employees event. Lol at thinking that was enough money to retire on, and now begging for people to buy him into this year's WSOP again.

I guess for some people their ability is never able to catch up to their ego.
