Very roundish for the former and very sharp for the latter.

Whether Robbi mis-read or not is central to determining if she cheated or not because there is a night and day difference between hero calling with jack high versus hero calling with 10s and 3s two pair. El Diesel's point that pertains to such well supplements the fact that Robbi checked her hole cards for at least 7 seconds after Garrett had already gone all in. It does not substitute. It merely supplements.
The way he goes into such detail about the fonts is pretty funny and he's not wrong but I think it misses the point. As her type of misread (if you believe it) is more of a mis remembering..... as in she knows she has Jack rag and forgets if it's a 3 or 4...... not that she is looking at the 3 and really thinks it's a 4 because they are so similar

Absolutely ... happens all the time. I forget what my rag card is dozens of times a session.

How is it possible to have so many break even sessions? Does he play for 5 hands and leave?

He won $35. Hardly breakeven.

Play for 30 minutes. Leave for 90 minutes to get a coffee. Come back and play 15 more minutes. Rack up, leave, and film your outro. Being a content creating mogul is tough work.

I looked at Google reviews for cities not too far from me. A similar thing pops up....Reviews are generally complaining there is nothing there, OR that they get a burger that is OK, but is totally out of line for it's price. This isn't just for one city, this is for 3 cities that are near me.

Checked some other places and cities that I've been to in the past in nearby states. A similar thing is going on. A location that is doing $500K a year in sales isn't getting 1-2-3 Yelp/Google reviews. A bunch of locations have NO reviews at all, with some coming back as being closed/non operational.

I also went to the website of Mr. Beast. They have TONS of locations/cities. I didn't count it, but there were MANY, but I don't think it was 500? A couple hundred for sure...but let us say that I am wrong. For sake of argument, assume Mr. Beast has 1,000 locations. That is a LOT of locations! Every one of those locations is doing $500K a year in sales? These are "ghost kitchens" for the most part, piggy backing on Pizza joints with their delivery. $500K a year in revenue is getting close to being a decent amount of turnover for a smaller "regular" fast food place. An average Burger King location will do about double that in sales.

So yeah, I just don't see how Mr. Beast is doing $500,000,000 a year in sales. Maybe they are doing $500,000 a year in sales, I could certainly believe that.
Really don't think he is a liar... Good chance I've misremembered and it was 50 million?

Bare in mind he has 1700 virtual locations. If it is 500mill thats barely 250k a location. Less than 700 dollars a day.

Hardly insane? Have you seen photos from his grand opening of his first official beast burger location. They had to shut down the shopping center once 50,000 people joined the queue

He is also planning to open up 100s of these official joints.

Its really not that much though. There are literally thousands of billionaires (many of which are worth many billions of dollars). Mr Beast is only 24 years old. When he's of the age that most billionaires are, there will likely be tens of thousands of billionaires. This kid is a top of the food chain social media influencer. A billion is a lot of money to a lot of people. Hell, some people may think a million dollars is a lot of money. There are levels to this game of life, and there is absolutely no reason that his sights should be set as low as a billion dollars.


BTW, I also agree with the previous poster that you shouldn't believe everything you read. Until there is a signed contract any number is not to be trusted. Take OpenDoor as an example. They'll give an offer on your home in order to get their foot in the door. However, if you want to sell them your house, the actual offer amount will likely be nowhere close to that "preliminary" offer.

In a now deleted tweet from July of 2022 Mr Beast had mentioned $100 million in revenue. I assume that was since inception, so $100 million over 1.5 years I believe. Nowhere close to Shake Shack. That being said, we all know that Shake Shack is just fast food burgers priced as if they were thick juicy gourmet burgers, so they shouldn't be hard to beat.

With Mr Beast's business model, he doesn't have to open any restaurants at all and can still do a hundred million in sales.

We all like to throw shots at El Diesel ...

That said, I'm giving kudos to El Diesel for somehow being able to squeak ($14.50/hr) out a profit playing $1/2, $1/3 poker. I can't do it, and neither can you. El Diesel has gotta be in the top 1% of profitable live low low stakes grinders. The rake is an absolute killer nowadays.

Are there any $4 max rake games left in the country? I'm guessing 95% of us don't even have access to a $5 max rake (rake plus promo drop) game anymore? I'm playing in games nowadays where the rake+promo drop is $8 plus. I'm barely beating these games for Cheeseburger money, and I'm often the only player leaving the table up. I don't know about you, but high rake has taken the fun out of live poker for me.

One 4+ hour session of live poker, and I don't want to see a poker table for a week. Yet somehow, week in, and week out El Diesel averages 40/hrs a week playing poker, making a $14.50/hr living at it.

I don't know how he can dust himself off, day after day and hit the tables.
Kudos for his stamina.

Just because you have a hard time beating 1/2 doesn't mean it's unbeatable. I suck at poker and have made $9.20 an hour over 700 hours at 1 /2. This isnt counting tips and I throw the dealer 2 or 3 bucks for a winner, so my hourly with that factored in im close to el diesels win rate. 14 bucks an hour is something to be proud of in 2022?

Trooper can be criticized for a lot of things, but he has definitely figured the game of life out a lot better than El Diesel.

I'm not sure I understand your point here. He doesn't play poker for a living. He makes videos for a living. This has got to be one of his biggest winning years ever.

The point is if he does just videos, he sleeps in the tunnels. If he just does poker, he sleeps in the tunnels....very precarious situation either way.

This is by far his best year ever, FROM CASH GAMES, hes made 24k in 9 years, so average about 2-3k a year from poker. Biggest losing year was 2020, he lost 8415, biggest winning cash year was 2017 he won 8855


In total from MTTs hes down a bunch, but because of the fact he had 100% of himself in this years bink hes maybe won overall from mtts, not exactly sure, in the first 5 years he had lost approximately 5k from playing mtts but i always kept those seperate because i think he was freerolled into them, he lost 1372 in 2019 and won 2400 2021 and won 7219 this year, so overall down money from mtts, but because of the various percentages of his own action hes had, hes prob up like 7-10k or something id guess


Also he is up 11k overall on the year, 4k from cash games + 7k from mtts



Wouldnt be a trooper tweet without a couple misspellings in it, while calling somebody else dumb.

Interesting to see that people are finally beginning to respect Coach El Diesel and see him for what he is: a highly persistent, resilient, disciplined and mentally tough 99.9 percentile poker grinder.

p.s. In his latest 100 hour poker challenge, Coach El Diesel has averaged 7 BB per hour playing in Las Vegas. Small sample size obviously.

It's not true though. For years he's been doing just fine with mediocre/negative poker results. Perhaps eventually the social media game will dry up for him but the fact is that his quality of life has actually improved substantially since he first got to Vegas and that's due to being a social media influencer and has absolutely nothing to do with his poker results.
