Today ELD starts the night at Harrah's parking garage. ELD goes to the weight room and Venetian to verify that Bazaar Meat has moved from Sahara to Venetian.ELD then drives to MGM Grand and makes his way up to the top floor of the parking garage (which is closed off except for Nomads) and gives a monologue on MGM status.ELD states Gold Tier is the most important tier for Nomad

He really is such a dope. If anything changes it's going to be to have to play more than 150 hours to get gold. There is no reason to care about making sure all of the hours are in the same room.

In fact the more he posts about this the more likely it is they raise the 150 hours to make it harder for homeless types to get gold.

First basemen are usually kind of tall to be able to catch higher throws. Plus, the most he can probably split his legs to reach forward for a close play is 1 foot.
There's only 1 position made for his squatty body - catcher. His favorite pitch to call would be whatever pitch he makes his upside-down 3 fingers up represent.

Yeah. but instead of calling the best pitch for the situation and batter, he would pick something weird for some obtuse reason that didn't make any sense.

No way he gets the 60 hours. He would need to play 45 sessions.

He stated he played 70 hours in 18 days at Caesars like that is impressive. That's less than 4 hours a day.

More than once I've arrived at Horseshoe on a Friday night and got the 15 hours required for the Sunday "freeroll". It's not like climbing Everest.

Some of his genuine fans have been asking about when his merch line is gonna be dropping. ELD replies that it's in the pipeline. I cant wait to see what he comes up with!

What would it be? A chinese-made extra-extra large windbreaker with huge pockets?

A knock-off Swiss Army knife with only 2 blades, including oversized sausage-scissors?

Basing the shower on what? He sure as hell didn't shower at the weight room in the latest video.

Alright,lets say he doesent go there to shower. What is he doing in there that is so damn important that he needs to go there before every single shift?

And dont mind replying working out,Fat Zach isnt suddenly becoming a gym rat out of nowhere exercising right before every dealershift.


Is he going to somehow ruin the employee weight room benefit for everyone else?

Rice is capable of destroying any benefit or perk for everyone as long as it is free.

What makes you so sure? Were you there watching him?


[QUOTE=Petrucci;59104515]Yeah,confirmed for sure he hasnt access to shower at his permanent adress.

He started going to the employee weightroom every single time before a shift just as he "moved' into his little bunker.

There is zero chance Rice suddenly out of nowhere is working out 100 percent of the time before work,so the only likely explenation is that he needs to go there to shower./QUOTE]

My guess is he has a room and a shared half-bath, with use of some sort of refrigerator (he ate "overnight oats" which require refrigeration.

Even if he's only working half a shift on his 4 nights dealing, he'd be making $350-$400/week which is likely far more than when he was playing. Plus the YT revenue means he could afford at least a room with a shared full bath and full kitchen privileges. But that would likely require a security dep.

Any vlogs from Trooper or any sightings in the greater Las Vegas area of him?
Radio silence from a known loudmouth is unusual.

by Petrucci

No poker, no slots, no trips to the strip to play, no nothing?

Wow, nicely done by Twatts, another big fat epic fail in the books.

by Same_again

More likely the only thing Trooper is slaying is Lady Trooper's (Christina's) money.

Kinda odd how quickly Trooper has fallen off the face of the earth.

Trooper could at least give us a Costco video.


Is it even worth it for him to keep putting out slot machine videos? They don’t get many views.

Who rents a room/apartment without access to a bathroom and kitchen? Whats the point?

Just go home to your parents and exist for free. Its not like you would be disappointing to them. You already failed your parents long ago with the college costs and zero results.


it's probably worth it to keep up the appearance of a big-time Youtuber with the person bankrolling this trainwreck

Couldn't be more obvious that he's near busto without an update for so long. Just crying for attention with that tweet.

According to his LinkedIn he was screwed by the ever changing rubric when he was always the best student or employee. He became his own boss so his genius could shine without interference and that catapulted him to the top 1% 1/2 no limit players in Vegas. Caesars then took away the 4 free drinks and he was on again screwed by the establishment. He will eventually find an endeavor where the powers that be can't change the rubric and then he will be successful and free from the man.


A couple reasons for ED's "permanent address" could be in play: He's employed in the state of Nevada. If he gets laid off, he'd be eligible for state Unemployment benefits, which are likely higher than NY's. Also at some point if he hasn't changed his license plates and gotten an NV driver's license, he could get a serious fine for out of state plates. He'd need a local address for that as well imo. Finally, and probably most important, he needs a place to sleep on the weekends since he works then - sleeping in his car on weekend nights when comps are unavailable is no longer sustainable.


by Same_again

It seems the hustle continues and the haters need to wait a bit longer to be fully vindicated

Trooper's last slot video 2 weeks ago was 75 cents per spin. Seems
like Trooper's BR is running on empty. Unless he gets an injection
of new money.

I really thought Trooper playing Penny slots was going to be his golden ticket to financial freedom. Maybe he can get a benefactor like pman and become a full time stay at home Internet troll. Sure the money sucks but at least you don't lose money while doing nothing.

you get unemployment from the state of your employment, not where you live

in any case, NY's benefits are higher and set to roughly double Nevada's beginning next month

In Diesel-world, bathroom IS a kitchen.

Just go home to your parents and exist for free. Its not like you would be disappointing to them. You already failed your parents long ago with the college costs and zero results.

Can't get any income that way, not even from youtube.


ELD could do some Nomadic challenges in Atlantic City.

Such as sleeping at WAWA parking lot.

Sleeping at the park at Atlantic City.

Tier matching videos at Atlantic City (i.e. Golden Nugget and Hard Rock) and explaining each parking garage.

Using myvegas to obtain a comp Borgata room. Since ELD doesn't have a smart phone he could download Bluestacks Android emulator and emulate the myvegas apps.

Egg Harbor airport Nomadic camping.

Meeting various Nomads in the shadows along Pacific Avenue, etc.

It's beyond hilarious that not only is ELD living his life as sub-optimally as humanly possible while thinking that he's the biggest genius in existence, but that he has chosen to document and broadcast the entire trainwreck for out viewing amusement.

In that regard Rice probably is something like one in a million,and the odds are we will never see something in his league again being broadcasted on YT.

Not only is it extremely rare on its own finding a person that chooses to live a total bottom of the barrell lifestyle as he does. On top of that finding someone choosing to document it all on YT is like a true lightening in a bottle hit.


Today ELD travels to North Las Vegas with a stop for supplies at Walmart and arrives at Poker Palace.

A fan is sitting next to ELD and buys ELD unlimited spaghetti which ELD warns must be maximized and eaten within 60 minutes as ELD points to empty plates stacked at his table.

After the tournament ELD states he then needs to get back to the strip to go to the weight room and then back to his address.
