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!
I thought no one could top Bikeking wanting to be a professional poker player and injecting himself into the pro community but Pman really takes the cake.
You should probably be at least a winning player before you try that.
bikeking is still the worst one of all
he is the only one that outright lied and even posted photoshopped bank statements rather than admitting he was busto because he's bad at poker, dude is a compulsive liar
I don't think anyone has outright lied as much as bikeking.
It is so bizarre to me that bike king never really gave it another real shot, it seemed like he was preparing to give it another shot for years and years. Always claiming his BR was around 15-20k, always claimed to be right about ready for another run. He couldve been working at subway with his expenses and had a BR for 1-2 a handful of times over, it just doesnt make any sense to me.
The one time he actually followed through he had his van set up for living, was in texas for like a couple weeks then had to repair his van which couldnt have cost more than like 5k and that broke him by his own admission, "i have enough for a make or break month but im just going to call it and go home" or something to that effect. Just doesnt make sense id really like to get down to know how hes leaking so much money.
The couple of vlogs he put up about winning 3k in 48 hours or whatever and how that was a massive upswing really just makes you think on how poor and how little money he had. I dont think thats super uncommon even for 1-2 players, trooper even had them, maybe not for super nits like el diesel or old man coffee but for the average player i dont think thats so crazy. The texas van vlog was so funny though, and the 3k in 48 hours also so good.
The magic of his original vlogs was great, its a shame he isnt ever going to recapture that and instead do this pretend sports betting thing he does, id love nothing more than to take one more real ride with the bike king. I get it because it is much easier than poker in that you can just straight up pretend and roughly half the time you win either way, then do what he does and have these arguments with people online where he pretends hes a sharp bettor. Bike if youre reading this if you can provide the bet slips to your action network ill give you a 100k freeroll, or if in the future for the next 2-3 years you keep your betslips or keep pictures of all your action network betslips and you win at 10% clip with 0 variance again ill give you a 100k freeroll, youll be able to buy a new van with all the fancy fixings.
Based on his super skinny frame, lying, abrupt moving, and stories that make no sense I assumed BikeKing had a drug problem. I guess sports betting addiction is highly likely too. BikeKing vlogs were great, he’d win like $15 in a session and say that’s a solid win for me, meanwhile he’s spending like $5/day on food by just eating Jack in the Box Bogo sandwiches, and stealing fountain soda.
The last I saw of bike king he was posting memes of himself in r/poker, you could tell he was hoping people would like his memes and he would become a name in the community or something. Incredibly cringe stuff, and it got zero engagement as you would expect.
heres just one example
bikeking is just lazy, look at his video where he shared his goals. It's laughable how much of a loser he is, he didn't follow through on anything.
he made best case scenario and worst case scenario goals and acted like the worst case scenarios were so unlikely and in the end he didn't even come close to his worst case scenarios.
He set a goal of something like 50k a year in poker and 25k as worst case, I bet you he never reached 25k profit in his life.
Same as his subscribers goal, he set something like 10k subscribers as his worst case scenario and then proceeded to post 0 videos the rest of the year.
I've seen his type before, has low self esteem and likely was bullied growing up so it manifested in him lying to make himself look better and now he's just a compulsive liar. He even lied about where he got his initial roll, some people he said he binked an online tourney and others he said he got it in an inheritance, he lies through his teeth everyday he doesn't remember his own lies. He's the type to say he's a martial arts expert and a secret agent of the CIA or some other crazy bs, I guess his is working on top secret military projects making 6 figures a year, meanwhile he gets all excited when he wins like 3k and makes a video of how he's back and never posts again. No one who is good at poker or who has money would get that excited from 1 week of run good.
He wants so badly to be portrayed as this cool guy who crushes at poker and sports betting and people wrongly assume he's a nice guy because he looks so nerdy and unthreatening, but imo he is probably the scummiest one of all the misfit vloggers.
Bottom line, there's a lotta scummy 'youtube' poker 'pros'.
And those are the only vloggers we like to follow around here. 😆
Prev going hard at bk.
I feel like his lying is him trying to fit in, probably from bullying or something like you said and I don’t see it as malicious. I wish he would just see that he doesn’t need to do that, it would be so fun to actually watch someone try to run it up from nothing, basically nobody has gone from losing/breakeven player to reasonable stakes that I know of. Bike king is worthy of love and being accepted as he is without any bs lies he comes up with, which maybe sounds corny but it’s true and I genuinely wish he understood this, because I think that’s at the root of his lying trying to make himself big by pretending he’s a crusher at all these things and always taking the best of it in all these situations.
He hired a tout for gods sake, that’s the ultimate fish move but he made it out into actually he still crushed with it
The news reports Intel suspends dividend payments and likely other dividend stocks will stop paying dividends if the market goes down alot on Monday. This could affect ELD's dividend stock portfolio. In addition Berkshire Hathaway sells $75,000,000,000 of Apple dividend stock.

Looks like Rice picked the wrong week to quit dealing poker…
It will not affect him since he will never sell right? His dividend payment will remain the same, it doesn't matter to him if he loses 10k in paper value.
I don't do dividend and long term, I do super short term, so I am guessing.
The kinds of stocks Diesel has probably won't be affected dividend-wise. Those companies do everything they can to maintain dividend payments.
Warren Buffet is a sucker who pays for McDonald’s breakfast every morning he could learn a lot from Diesel.
I honestly would not have thought that a tour of an employee salad bar would be entertaining. Maybe it's the way ED walks us through it. He brings a lot of charisma to it.
Imagine if ED had become a successful lawyer and did client dinners at the county's finest steakhouses . . . the VLOGS he could have made out of that material...

Only SUCKERS graduate law school and become lawyers.
El Diesel is getting paid to eat sandwiches!
One day he will look back on these times and think how great life was

It's amazing how much comedy gold was in that one video. I mean aside from all the things which have already been dissected here.
How is he so utterly clueless about common foods that 99.99% of the US population would recognise instantly. How can he spend as much time as he does in California and not even know what sliced jalapenos look like on a salad bar.
It's clear from his replies to comments that he actually thought he was showing us something good/impressive.
Such a clown, just so happy that he had unlimited access to free food. The quality being highly questionable doesn't even bother him. I'll bet he didn't eat a single meal outside of the EDR for the 50 days he worked.
Wouldn't surprise me if he snuck in on his off days just for the food or maybe he took the food home with him in his pockets the night before his day off. Maybe he thinks it's like the $20 take away MGM Buffet where you can fill up your container to-go.

Just think about all the players he knew that got a cup of random meat during those 50 days. No wonder Orleans tourney fields were packed and crushed guarantees left and right.
When it comes to his income from dealing, just like with his poker results, Rice is only willing to give out information when it suits him.
Don't bother asking him a silly question like the total amount that he earned. He only provides information that he thinks will be flattering to him, which he will then analyse and break down every which way, down to the very last cent.
That’s amazing
