I had played blackjack there probably 30-40 times for 1-2 hours each time without issue. Every time I also played poker.



So one night I'm there during a snowstorm. It's the only time I've ever seen plo not running there. A lot of times high limit was pretty full which sucks for counting. This night it's completely empty.

I think **** it I bet a bunch of people in surveillance called out sick nobody cares about anything on a day like this.

A half hour later a pit boss called me by name (I wasn't using a card that day) and told me no more blackjack blah blah blah.

Being I play poker there I never tried playing bj there again. A few months after my backoff a lot of the main floor went to 6 decks with really good pen and I can't play. If I didn't play poker I would have just played again there a few months later but I'm not trying to get trespassed. Pretty sure if I didn't play when the casino was so empty I could have gotten a lot more hours in without issue.
Sorry to hear it. Bad run out, but I think you got your money in good there. Most times, I bet you're able to make a nice score going for it under those conditions.

There's someone in Diesel's comments who really doesn't like when he calls it Bally's poker room. He straight up threatened him over it.

What a thing to be so worked up over.

In today's video Rice is so traumatised at having to briefly play 6 handed that he had to runn off and play the Limit games instead. In his own words he 'just couldn't take it' (3 times he tells us this). He must be a super nit.

The sound levels of the video are just awful so can hear the background music more than Rice. Also the way he is looking at neither the camera nor Trooper whilst telling the story is a bit disconcerting
I knew better. I didn't even click it.

So I guess his challenges are a way to cope for the way he just lives his everyday life and doesn't have to admit to. He's not a promo grinder he's just doing a "challenge".

"I don't play for the promos, this is just a challenge. "

What viewers ask for:
Run up your bankroll playing 2/5 challenge

In a few weeks:

I have some new challenges based on what the viewers asked for!

Living in my car for 1 year challenge!

Keeping my laundry expenses to $0 challenge!

Well the issue was that there was some confusion or miscommunication regarding his hours and the net result is that Rice tragically had to play an additional 2 hours at the Westgate (according to his records)
I looked into playing that promo next time I'm in town before I realized it was 30 freakin hours. They certainly don't want tourists there because the promo runs through Sunday but they don't pay you until the FOLLOWING THURSDAY. It takes more than a week and a half from promo start until you get the money. They also won't send it to you and after a short amount of time you forfeit it if you don't pick it up. It's like they're screaming to tourists DON'T PLAY HERE.

I mean he did gut it out for a whole 29 minutes! Love the part where he says “I’m tired of playing 5 or 6 handed all the time” during a video where he says he’s been playing 9 handed full tables at Westgate all week then “instantly” got tired of playing 6 handed at the Horseshoe and quit after half an hour. The self contradiction is amazing with this guy.

The guy is the biggest nit in the world, also he loves exaggerating. His version of playing short handed is if someone's gets up from the table for 5 minutes and they go from being 9 handed to 8 people. He probably refuses to play until a seat is filled the instant a player leaves. Basically anything less than 9 handed with everyone at the table is playing short handed to a super nit like Rice.

Wonder if maybe someone was raising too much at the NL table. In LHE the raises are only 8 bucks at a time. Surely Diesel knows there's more variance in LHE, right?

The extra ev from playing that night definitely wasn't worth it long term. If it was a place i was visiting or even a place I didn't care about for anything other than BJ it wouldn't be a big deal. Id just go back a few months later to play.

Definitely annoying when I'm buried on a poker list,or done playing and they have a bunch of deeply cut 6 deck games with great rules everywhere and I can't play.

It's hilarious these types at the Westgate. You have the Trooper, although only on Thursdays. But then you have Rice, Pman and also TBC. Would love to see them all at the same table. Rice deliberately avoided Trooper's game this last Thursday due to wanting to bum hunt the pool tournament players.
