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!
Nice guy? Pfff nah, he's a total douche pretending to be a nice guy. "I worked for 2.5 years in the last 5 years", yeah it's tough out there for a pimp yo. **** off, most of us work 5 days/week every week tool and still find the time to put in 10 hrs of poker a week.
He needs to get laid, but that's a fool's errand unless he gets a hooker without getting scammed.
Avoid the ones that work in pairs one's job is to distract the client wherein the second one's job is to search around the room for money and valuable watches.
I don't think Pman understands how a "x to y challenge" works. The goal is not to lose "x". When you lose x, the challenge is over and you lost. But when you are a losing player, you will inevitably have to redeposit so he's right on script there.
The $1k to $100k challenge got updated to $2500 to $100k lol.
The sad part is that he has had multiple coaches and has studied GTO Wizard a lot, and still loses.
Studying is one thing but applying it in real time and adjusting for context is another.
I bet he plays pretty solidly 95% of the time but spews in the 5% when he's tired/tilted.
Playing winning poker is not rocket science but being able to manage fatigue and tilt is where most people fail.
The 5% is the hardest part and something that you can't learn from studying.
If he lives to 300, he might hit the goal.

Pman does not play solidly at all. He defends way too loose out of the blinds. He calls way too loose. He value bets too small when he should be sizing to get it in by the river comfortably.
Pman has no talent for poker, period. He has no feel. To this day, he hasn't mastered the easiest street in poker, preflop. There's literally preflop charts everywhere that all look the same, an arrow going to the upper left.
He can't even play more than two hours online before quitting. By the time you've played two hours, you should have reads on most everyone and that's when your win rate goes up cause now you can tailor exploitative play to each villain.
I'm not saying Pman should quit poker but he should definitely leave social media, streaming and vlogging. Just be bad in silence and anonymity.
So, has the Trooper actually quit? I see on his IG he selling candy at farmers markets?
I wonder what finally caused this? He doesn't seem like the guy to just stop... ultimatum from the gf?
Pman should:
1. Get a job (waiting tables, drive Uber/other gigs, etc. )* work 30-35 hrs a week. Better a real job w co-workers, etc. to build relationships and learn teamwork.
2. Play a couple 5 hour live sessions per week. These should also be used with 4.
3. Play 30 min to an hour 50nl online and record these sessions for review w part 4.
4. Get in touch with a coach/content creator and offer to be a pupil enabling him to learn and grow while being of use to the coach. Think Jonathan Little, Red Chip poker, etc. types. There have to be several in Vegas.
PMan doesn't know how to drive.

Probably just ran out of bankroll.
Does he still do trooper thursday? If not, he's lost his 2 sources of income - youtube and Westgate.

Great ideas for our friend here. I should take the 2500 he deposited online and use it for live play while working 30-40 hours a week.
I would also recommend him a life coach as someday reality will smack him across the head.
Pman has stated he does not want a job. Which we have all thought -- no sh**. He had a seeming good job dealing/flooring at Sahara, which lasted a very short period.
Like I said, he is facing all the backlash in here because he has the opportunity of time that almost every one here would love to have. And he's wasting it.

Anybody remember what other life expenses pdad covers besides his condo?
Just a guess…
All utilities
Grocery/Dining out stipend
Health Insurance
Cellphone costs
Wifi
Poker allowance
Clothing
Travel expenses
Just those. All other costs he would have to work for.
Even with just the condo covered, he has the biggest opportunity anyone can fall into but yet time after time he squanders it. If Tony Big Charles were in pmans situation at 28 years old, he would be a millionaire by 50.
