Trooper97 vlogs, discussions etc. will be allowed to continue in the new thread. That thread will not be unchained and I will work with the other LVL mods to keep it civil.

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.

Posts the are overly derogatory, mean spirited, name calling (including using rude derivatives of names) , and demeaning posts towards any of the vloggers or posters in the thread will be deleted at the mods discretion. 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.

No personal family information or situations allowed in the thread.

********************
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 deep dive into a pay stub will be Diesel’s Odyssey


by angle_shooter k

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.

Why would the total amount earned over the 50 days dealing be an "important" and relevant number? Diesel's brain works differently, way differently.

But it's ok though. 15 years from now, he'll compare a Tuesday's pay from 2024 with a Tuesday's pay in 2039 and break down all the differences in detail.


Although Rice made vague comments that made us think he was gonna give out his total income for his dealing gig,
we all knew, deep down, he wasn't giving that up.

Well it is pretty embarrassing to make 3x what you made from playing poker last year over 50 days dealing and then stupid to not want to continue dealing.

It would be hard to reconcile with your viewer base if you gave those exact numbers. Thus again, he lies through omission and not telling us how much he made even though it's not hard to extrapolate a good guesstimate of how much it was.

El Diesel/Rice doesn't want his ability to travel to beautiful places like Nebraska and Council Bluffs Iowa, held back by a job schedule.

We will get roughly the total amount he made, just need to do some math. Diesel gives out a lot of info. It’s funny how he thinks but I don’t fault him for not giving us everything.

I’m glad his dealer pay has satisfied Diesel’s numbers kink but save it for the newsletter no one subscribes too. I know a paystub is a novelty to Diesel but all his viewers have gotten paystubs or virtual ones for years and years, we don’t care. Maybe Big Poppa can talk him out of making 4 paystub videos.

Don't you think you could come up with a pretty close estimate of what his total earnings from dealing was? If he worked 50 days and averaged $275 per day, his total earnings is $13,500 +/- 10%. It's probably in the range of $12,150 to $14,850 gross.


Blue Poker has a day of sports betting with his entourage at the apartment, then a disappointing night of poker at Southpoint followed by a sleepy drive home.

I'm glad he stuck with dealing and I was hoping for his sake he'd realize he isn't that good at poker,he's too risk averse and it needs to be a slightly profitable side hobby.

Amazingly most of the goobers in his comments think he's a "pro" and can't wait for him to go back to dealing.


Diesel needs to be a school teacher back on Long Island, do his 20 years and retire to eating sausage and peppers 3 times a day, watching KOQ, and filling out those mlb grids. Poker and dealing isn’t for him, Diesel’s YouTube cheer squad that consists of only gas station people that couldn’t fog a mirror are not doing him any favors, huge echo chamber of nitwits.

I want to point out that he is actually making it work in his own way. His standard of life is lower than 95% of people but he seems to be pretty content.

He is a small winner in poker and he spends 9 months of the year eating sausage and peppers and watching king of queens.

He has also built up enough of a youtube following where it's conceivable that he will eventually be able to sustain himself from youtube income.

He also proved us wrong and made it through 50 days without quitting or getting fired and worked alot of hours. He now has the majority of his yearly expenses saved up.

Diesel is actually killing it.


^I wonder how many YouTube followers he would have if he started his vlog 8 or 9 years ago.

Evidently his new job Think Blue Poker is starting Friday at Horseshoe/Paris as a sports ticket writer, doesn't drug test for Marijuana.

We can only speculate that ELD will be doing one of his dividend stock tips in the Horseshoe parking garage and the smell of wafting smoke will permeate the air as Think Blue is on an employee smoke break.

he's not though. He only took this dealer job after 3 years of a pathetic win rate at baby stakes nl when even he couldn't cut expenses any further.
If he was still making even 14 dollars an hour at these games he never would have taken the Orleans gig.

but he got the job and worked so isn't that making it work?


It's funny that think blue lasted 2 weeks playing poker for a living before getting a job.

Poker isn't easy lmao.

Good stuff. Explains his thought process in a very easy to understand way. Subbed.

Darn close to impossible to pay your bills at $1/3.
Rice saw the handwriting on the wall, and got a job.
From here on out, Rice's number one source of income will be dealing, followed closely by his six figure dividend portfolio, of course.


say what you will about Rice but he's very protective of his best friend's identity, not once in all his vlogs he ever mentioned the guy he talks to on a daily basis and who's like a brother to him


I've probably watched the rice vlog where, after 50 freaking days, he finally delivers the goods, except for the BEST PART*, a good 6+ times

*The hot section is the best part of any free dining situation. To video when the hot section is closed is beyond words.

Not knowing what sliced jalapeno peppers or pepperoncis look like

The cookies/chip segment. So many fing bananas.

edit: props tho for surreptitiously getting the pictures in. Think blue poker was much less disgusting in this regard

Sounds a good recommendation but entirely inappropriate for much coverage in this thread! Unless he also discusses pocket bread along with pocket queens


watched some of 4 bet blind's vlogs.

Dude is hilarious but man is he bad at poker. He's selling a course on live tells when he is broke and can't win in poker himself.

He is a classic calling station bad reg.

Every once in a while they make the right hero call but they make way more wrong ones and just spew in so many marginal spots.

I'm amazed that people convince themselves they're good at poker and just going through run bad when they've never made sustained profits from poker.
