Does anyone know LTs address? I would like to send her some flowers.


Next month's newsletter likely can look forward to a section "Multi Course Meals at the Permanent Address with Two Rice Cookers".


Whack Pack Supremo Rice gives his weirdest ever shout out and birthday wishes to Matt's daughter. Rice explains "Word on the street is she turns 15 in a matter of weeks"

No one even knows who Matt is, much less his daughter who is turning 15 in a matter of weeks. Classic Rice!

Well,its not christmas just yet-but in todays vlog Rice truly got all his wishes come true.1)First he was over the moon at the fact he got to do as little work as possible for the most pay. Mostly due to some deadspreads and his table going to dinnerbreak so Rice could just sit at the table during his down.Nothing makes him more happy than the warm feeling of beating the system

His ultimate work day is him just sitting at the table not dealing any cards all day.

I wonder if he feels compelled at all to pay his share for these dinners with Herbs and Rye now that he is earning $40 per hour to sit around and do nothing. My guess is no, seeing as he never mentions the price of these meals like he would normally do with anything else he spends a cent on. Oh wait maybe he isn't allowed to divulge this information, because it wouldn't be fair to his Newsletter subscribers who pay for it LMAO

Rice also proves what a culinary simpleton he is. He prefers Pad Thai to the yellow curry, the chicken over the duck, and doesn't seem to think that bean sprouts are in sync with the dish (Pad Thai). Rice seems to not be a fan of duck in general, hes discussed it several times and once spent an afternoon in SF looking at what he believed to be raw ducks hanging upside down in a restaurant. He much prefers sausage meats and sardine slurry to duck meat which he seems suspicious of and likely feels is vastly over rated. What a beautiful mind!

I would say basically zero chance Rice payed himself. He is way way to cheap for him to pay for not one,but two main dishes at a solid joint like Lotus of siam. No way he would be splurging with two mains if he payed with his own money,but he is very happy maximizing when others is covering the tab. Such nasty behavior imo.

Also agreed on the duck. Likely too lean meat for Rice,as he is insanely addicted to ultra processed meat full of unhealthy fat,carbs and other trash. He seems to get almost high or something from stuffing himself with that kind of food-so he isnt even able to enjoy a duck dish. Massive fish when it comes to food,you see it at his buffet choices as well.

With his risk aversion, I think a decent poker pivot for him when he started breaking even at NL could've been to 8/16 Limit Holdem. He could still play 150 hrs of NL at MGM yearly to keep gold status and play 8/16 the rest of the year.

He doesn't know how to play LHE, and even if he did, he couldn't find a game in Vegas. Besides, LHE has more variance than NL.

Imagine how much money TBC would have if he didn't degen BJ or get scammed by "women" on the Internet.

Honestly you have to give TBC credit for making a living off gambling this long…for all his faults like autism, paranoia, and even not being able to drive it’s kinda crazy he’s been able to live a decent quality of life gambling like what’s the ceiling if he had a real career with all these traits… overnight stocking at Walmart within walking distance?

Just not being able to drive makes his monthly expenses shoot way up having to live out of hotels and airbnbs.


Rice has no shame and is giddy even taking advantage of his friend.
It's one thing to order expensive food when your friend is paying bc that's normally what you order. It's another thing entirely to order pocket bread and steal food in lounges smuggled out in cups when you pay but run up a tab on a friend. And of course the only meal this guy has gotten H&R was at a food court with comps.


DePaulo rips into Trooper again. It’s a criticism that has been made here. F1 was going on and the best footage we got from him was watching him play penny slots.

Also when his paranoia used to kick in and he would take 500 mile taxi trips in the middle of the night to a new city to escape those mean video blackjack dealer animations that were stalking him.

Sorry, but put me in the Pad Thai over yellow curry camp. I love Pad Thai, yellow curry not so much. Although I can't recall ever having Pad Thai that didn't have bean sprouts.

Its av very good point,its actually a massive accomplishment especially considering him being on the spectrum.Being on the road travelling to gamble for 20+ years with no baseline routines,no apartment to call home,not hitting the wall busting his roll on tilt/lifetilt build up is almost unreal.

He may been fortunate with being extremely lucky like others mentioned in terms of him going on a heater again everytime his roll got dangerously low. But still,huge accomplishment to keep it going for so long having the struggles that he does.

An important video today from ELD.ELD published his newsletter which featured a section, "Meals At the Address".ELD also states he was again given a warning by law enforcement to slow down at the crosswalk despite having the right of way.ELD is a legal scholar and knows that when the light is green and the cross walk says, "Don't Walk" that this gives ELD the right of way and t

What a moron.

ELD is excited that Herbs and Rye is coming to town and he only works day shifts at the Orleans during the trip so ELD will be able to join in on the nightly restaurants.

What a mooch.

There's some luck involved but when he gets low on funds he buckles down and stops doing dumb **** like betting 1000 a hand on video blackjack.


by Langdon

why not just get a job at Jack in the Box, which surely would provide him more money for half the grind

like, what exactly is this AP hustle getting him?

Because that would be a J O B.

Episode 3 of 8 of the new WSOP documentary series. It's pretty good. I know nothing about Wolfgang, but he seems annoying. Abby is same old Abby, Lexy said she was going to be a lawyer and went with the poker route and is very happy how it turned out. #morebob

decided to check this out today but it's gone :(


Lotus of Siam was at one time one of the best Thai restaurants in the US. Not sure if it still has the same rep, but it also offers much more traditional and even exotic dishes than what El D and H&R ordered. The pad thai there is exceptionally good - sprouts included. Only someone who has not experienced wilted sprouts pre-mixed into the dish during heating would complain about them being an add-on that you can choose to mix in or garnish at the table yourself. For all that he eats, El D is no culinary giant.


Casino Nomad answers some pretty basic uninteresting questions...
... after he makes an official entry into the Whack Pack by describing where to get free mayo and other condiments at Paris when he is staying at Horseshoe

I had so much hope for this guy

This.TBC is a gambling cockroach. Everytime his roll gets dangerously low he goes on a miracle heater of good fortune either from poker or various other casino wins and jackpots. It's happened over and over again like clockwork. I believe he had his roll as high as it's ever been earlier in the year at ~90k but now it's back under 40k. Hilariously he thinks he is under rolled t

He probably behaves differently when it starts getting tight. He plays better, either taking fewer or more chances, and probably degens less. When bitcoin was well over 100k, like in the summer and he's feeling flush, he degens more. Bitcoin is around 90k now, so he's probably tightening up.

I know people like that. They rationalize it by saying "so-and-so makes lots of money so he can afford it", without thinking about fairness for one second. He's a douchebag.

There was a couple threads in NVG about it, Basically Alan Keating said they used AI to change something he said and then a firestorm opened up and a couple days later WSOP posted that they took all the videos in the series down so they could fix it to their standards. lol

meanwhile its been weeks now and they still haven't fixed it and there was still 2 episodes unaired.

Sorry, but put me in the Pad Thai over yellow curry camp. I love Pad Thai, yellow curry not so much. Although I can't recall ever having Pad Thai that didn't have bean sprouts.

Yeah nothing wrong with loving a good Pad Thai. It's definitely the orange chicken of Thai food though. It's the one dish everyone has heard of. And it's the first dish that even non lovers of Thai food probably will try and enjoy. Nothing wrong with that either.

It's a bit like if someone tells me they think November Rain was Guns n Roses best song. Sure there is a chance that they are actually a Guns n Roses officionado, but the odds are pretty long at that point.

My only hope for him is that he keeps showing Rice up as the clown he is.

Rice can continue to close his eyes, put his fingers in his ears and rant about how he has been doing everything so much better for the last 5 years. Of course you have Rice, of course you have!

Oh yes,count me in.Casinonomad is pulling in subs at a steady pace,he is over 12K now. He will have 14K as is double of Rice in no time now. If he can get a video to really take off/go viral he can get a ton of subs pretty fast.

I also have to say ive enjoyed the videos ive watched from him. Genuine,down to earth,well reflected guy is my impression.

The thing that makes it 10x worse is that Rice is constantly boasting about how much he makes. He claimed even when he was making single digits playing 1/2 that he was making more money then he needed. He claims to be immune to inflation.

With all these big boasts and claims you would expect him to not be shy when it comes time to pick up the tab. But of course it's the exact opposite. He wants to boast about how well he's doing and still not even pay for his own share. That's what makes him such a despicable arrogant clown.
