I wonder what's Diesels opinion of marijuana is
Have to agree. The numbers don't make any sense... he's getting $300 stakes to grind 1/2 but somehow we are to believe he is owed 80k by this mystery female dealer friend. I'll lay 5:1 he never even had 10k let alone 80k
Also to bobw525: She didn't stand you up to gamble table games on Feb 14th. She stood you up cos she was hanging with a younger guy or maybe just a wealthier sucker.
It wasn't in one limp sum. It was over five years. Including when I took my buyout from my company. Basically every time I won at poker she took at least half to gamble table games.

That makes it worse especially if you kept track accurately with the thinking you’d get paid back.
Again I never said this was the best decision of my life. I own my mistake. One of the reasons I moved to Vegas was because I realized I was never collecting and I wanted to eliminate the negative energy she brought into my life.

the good news is Bob is not a vlogger so we don't have to dissect his life choices in this thread.
and this discussion did not start because he was criticizing ELD, he was defending the lifestyle. which is comical
I was defending his right to that lifestyle. There is a reason I was employed until a few hours ago.

No one is challenging his right to live like a hobo.
Except you wrote in your own thread that you left your job and got a buyout in april of 2014 and announced in march of 2015 that you were busto and u were owed 80k.
Even if it was over 5 years that means you gave her average 16k a year, and half that means you made 32k a year profit from poker. I doubt you ever made 32k a year in poker in your life, i don't even believe you've even played 1,500 hours in a year. To say you've done that for 5 years is such a stretch.
I 100% believe you did give her money, but you probably added an extra 0 to make your self look better.
We can all see your posts through out the years and can put 2 and 2 together. The chance of you ever having 80k to give out is pretty much 0.
This is such a derail and should probably have mod intervention.
There is no best or worst hourly rate over a sample size; the average rate is the average rate. What is your lifetime hourly rate at 1-2 and/or 1-3?
Does it matter if 100% of his income originates from playing poker? Anyone that doesn't receive a paycheck as a W-2 employee should diversify their income streams. Between playing, dealing, YT, and staying with family during the holiday season, he lives the way he wants with the income he earns. You're all so hung on the term "pro" and you set the bar for his income, when it should be him setting it himself. Why would he care what you think he should be making annually? You're not living his life, he is.
You're not the brightest guy around, that is evident, and clearly obsessive over how much someone else earns from playing poker and whether they can fully support themselves from poker alone. Life is not a binary world, one extreme or another. If you are looking to live a nomadic lifestyle without being tied down by a traditional job, does it matter if your income comes from one particular source, or a multitude of sources?
Ah such condescending arrogance. You never had that much money. You're broke. You're a loser. Like, what is your purpose in life other than to take down other people to raise yourself up? You guys are an epidemic in the First World.
Marijuana is for suckers and would destroy the casino industry. As it stands now the industrial air filtration takes out all the cigarette and cigar smoke but marijuana is a differnt type of smoke hard to remove. And if the marijuana users started taking over a casino it would lower the profitability since non marijuana users will cease attending.
This is confirmed by Clark County banning marijuana stores on the strip.
Never said there was a best or worst average hourly rate over a single sample size. I said Diesel has shared samples of his results and his best ever was around $20 an hour.
Think Blue ends the bankroll challenge and no longer seeks a $5000 bankroll. Instead Think Blue will keep $1000 as a bankroll and receive profits of $500 per month to use for daily expenses.
T79 says hello... taking care of business this afternoon.
Those marshmellows look good. I like marshmellows.
Here's the thing.
It's not so much the word "pro", as it's Rice pretending he made enough playing poker, to support himself, when it was obvious, for the last two or three years anyways, that his poker earnings were, in no way, supporting him.
Now that Rice is dealing poker, he could support himself with his poker earnings, his YouTube money, and his poker dealing money.
ThinkBluePoker needs to cut back on the dope smoking.
No way in hell is TBP gonna have a $500 profitable month betting $25 a bet.
That is it. Count me out. I'm done watching ELD videos.
I knew a guy once that cooked something similar to the slurry monstrosity that ELD is putting together. When it was cooking, the stench was SO BAD I don't think there are adequate words in the English language to describe it. I walked in on it being cooked, and the stench was so bad, I literally gagged and almost threw up.
What is even worse than that, is that the stench from the slurry would get on stuff. Get on clothing, furniture, laptop computers. You could smell it for DAYS in the room in which it was cooked in. You could smell it for DAYS on equipment that was in the room that it was being cooked in. Absolutely disgusting.
I feel bad for the maids/workers that have to clean up the room after that salmon slurry has been "cooked" in. That room will smell RANK for days after the slurry is assembled.
This is all such a shame, as ELD was actually putting things together and making progress with his life when he was dealing.
I guess we now know why Diesel never got his deposits back when renting apartments.
If someone is cooking a vat of that low grade canned fish, there is probably FISH OIL contained in the steam that is coming out of the cooking vat.
I think that fish oil is the residue that has the stink in it.
Can you imagine the stink that would be left behind if someone were to cook that every week for a year?
Whatever it is, you've got to be SERIOUSLY hungry & cheap to even be fooling with it.
Indeed. Going by his philosophy he's doing them a favour by leaving disgusting crime-scene like messes so that at least they will see it and clean it up. If he cleaned it up himself them he would invariably miss a few bits and then no one would ever see it or clean it up for the rest of eternity.
