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.
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 is the address on their candy site.
New construction N of downtown LV.
I suspect bikeking's graph looks exactly like pman's except he just lies and says his money was stolen and he is actually crushing
trooper and diesel used to show their graphs but only when they were winning and thought their results were impressive lol
The most important thing by far is that the story gets told. The audience should know the truth. Not showing graphs and not talking about hands is like someone starting a thread here bragging while telling their story, and then disappearing when things go wrong.
The entire story needs to be told (except for one vlogger I will not name, we don’t need to know some of the meaningless details).
I would never quit my job to put myself in his situation.
What I am implying here is that if s*** hit the fan where I would lose my job and the funds I have accumulated over time. Would I be able to pull off what TBC is doing.
Another question is if Phil Hellmuth lost everything including his fame and only had a networth of 10k. Would he be able to survive and climb back up.
Without question. Hellmuth is good.
If that is it, I bet he got it real cheap. lol
They need it for commercial kitchen, which I am assuming has a set up for that.
The storefront probably doesn't matter much. He probably just needs it so he can take online orders.
I'm hoping we can get a verified picture of the exact location of Trooper’s physical location.
Does anyone know how many miles away this is from Trooper’s apt ??
If this is more than a half hour away (no traffic) and from where he lives, that's a big mistake.
I take it, this is not a retail location?
Do AirBNB rates really spike that much on weekends? He rents a single-room in multi-bedroom house off the strip whenever using AirBNB, so I can't imagine he's paying more than $50-$60 a night (think he's often mentioned he pays $20/$30 a night at previous AirBNBs)
ElD/Rice played a grand total of 2 hours poker (on his AZ trip). He spent more time than that just walking around on the golf course in the sweltering Arizona summer heat.
Pathetic and true.
ElD/Rice played a little over 2 hours of poker during his 3 day road trip to Arizona.
I think Rice went to AZ so he can pretend he's a nomadic poker player.

Im guessing that it's similar to hotel rates which fluctuate wildly from one weekend to another, just depending on demand.
WTF? He's stuck over 42k and 25k playing live cash? He's a lot worse than I thought.
But ya, Magikarp actually is coachable and is willing to learn. Pman still thinks he can turn it around LOL.
This is exactly why Pman pivoted to tournaments and away from cash. He can use that Employee's Event bink to sell he is profitable in tourneys. And he can chalk up all the losses to "tourney variance" cause even the crushers have a losing year or two or many. Blaming variance can only take you so far
I guess we don’t know how much of those results are from 2/5+ but -25k is an insane loss rate especially for nitty Vegas 1/3. Pretty sure if you pulled a 50 vpip American 500nl+ online whale from ignition or global their expectation would be better than -25k over 600 hours (2 years of Pman volume) of 1/3. Players who aren’t trying to win have better results than him.
^Another vlogger ITT recently came out with his first video mentioning a $15k loss at 1-3.
FWIW these guys have mentioned playing 1-3 at Resorts World which has a $400 max buy-in instead of a $300 max. But yeah that’s still interesting. Both of them seem to be clicking buttons a lot.
Trooper did lose $8k once but that was the worst stretch he went on and he very likely was on tilt for much of that.

there is probably a sizable chunk of play at 2/5 since we know he's a degen and will play with less than $2,000 in his bankroll/gambling budget.
Even then, it's pretty remarkable how bad he is even after studying the game, having coaches and dedicating his life to becoming a poker player.
He really should give up gambling altogether and focus on being a dealer.
He's a terrible player and I doubt he can ever be a winning player, dude has such thin skin the moment anything goes wrong he will go on monkey tilt.
Poker is just a hard game in general to be profitable over a large sample size, it almost requires being on the spectrum to be able to not let yourself be overcome by emotions. That's why ppl like TBC and Diesel have their own styles that allows them to be profitable despite being bad at almost everything else in their life.
It looks like pman convinced his friends and family to back him and made them think he's a winning player when he didn't have the funds to put himself into games.
Sounds like typical, scummy, degen antics.
He sold himself as a crusher when in reality he's a bottom 1% player in the player pool.
There's that one guy on twitter that keeps saying pman is a scammer.
I really want to hear that guys story or even pman's response to the accusations.
If these guys would play like the vlogger Old Man Coffee, their results would improve DRASTICALLY.

you have an account less than a year old but often reference things that happened many years earlier in this thread so this is your burner account
59/382 posts you've made have "pman" in it and it's safe to say the real count of your pman content is 3-4x more than that since you're obviously not going to name him in every post about him - nobody else cares about that but you repeatedly try to bring it up and make it part of the conversation
this appears to be the only thread you post in
you're also the person who introduced that "pman is a scammer tweet" and that tweet is very clearly from a burner which literally does nothing but respond to pman tweets
you introducing that was so sketch i even called you out at the time with the very next post
doubtful you're not behind that twitter account - it's people like you which i why even in threads where i'm communicating strictly between good friends i'm now hesitant to post anything too personal or any photos unless it's done directly over skype/discord/slack/texting - just too many creepy randos out here
i'm guessing 50/50 you're the twitter account - but even if you're not behind it, you have a very unhealthy obsession with the guy that borders on stalking if not actually is already deep into the stalking territory
What's the whole backstory on Pman being a scammer? Selling at markup for someone of his questionable skill level is bad enough.
Also where did all this new info on his cash game losses come from?

It was in his latest video.
Pman probably thinks he will turn things around and start winning. If anyone gives him money, it’s hard to feel sorry for them IMO.

there is literally none
it's an obvious burner account on twitter that never once posts any evidence nor details - which if you were scammed by him and wanted to let the world know (as the account pretends) then why do it anonymously and without any details? the reason is it's just intended to slander and having no details will allow something to hold up longer because it can't be scrutinized - especially when the people who operate the account regularly post about it on other forums like this (i'm sure prev is doing same on reddit) to try to give it wings
prev (who i'm pretty sure is behind said burner) just constantly brings it up
he's trying to start one of those circular reference things where we talk about him being a scammer due to that twitter account and then others refer to us calling him a scammer and suddenly someone has a pretty strong record of being a scammer despite zero evidence ever being brought forward for it
much like this, but orchestrated by a creepy guy instead of accidentally by separate individuals
