He's claimed multiple times (when asked why he doesn't give daily results) that when he has done results videos in the past they were "wildly unpopular"

Apparently what his viewers really want to hear about is all these irrelevant stats that he keeps track of to pass the hours as he folds his way to riches one comp dollar at a time.

What subset of his viewers actually care how many hands per hour he's getting in Council Bluffs, or how many rebuys or add-ons there are? Not only is the information of zero interest, that's the reason no one else tracks or reports it, but it's also entirely useless due to the infinitesimal sample size.

Not only is it a small 5 hour sample size, the stats are skewed with Diesel and his super nit play at the table.

$25k in bar mitzvah money in 2002 is about $230k today if invested in S&P 500 and reinvest the dividends. I make the market on his net worth $165,000 - $250,000.

Holy crap, is that how much they get? Do they give you anything if you convert?

Of all the stats I could possibly think of at the table to keep track of or be interested in someone tracking, this is one that never crossed my mind and never will. Actually the only time I've done something like this, it was just for a whale going off for infinite buy ins but that's about it. Who cares what the whole table is rebuying and adding on for under normal circumstances? Only Diesel.

He could keep track of how many times the dealer gets a fill.

The Stratosphere Nomad reports that risk factors for homelessness are mainly not being tall enough, not having a big enough unit, which causes lizards not to take said nomad in for free housing and further that college degrees mean nothing and kiosks and artificial intelligence will replace employees:

In today's video Rice discusses doing an activity for hours and hours for little or no reward causes one to lose motivation.

Also you'll notice that after 5 minutes of a leisurely stroll causes him to start breathing hard.

Great to see Rice mixing it up, taking his stroll through a beautiful cemetery. So much nicer than the usual parking garage backdrop that we are so accustomed to...

Of course he feel burnt out from poker, he never challenges himself within the poker space. Not sitting deeper, not playing bigger games, not opening up his own game or his own ranges just the same insane nutpeddling for like 4 bucks pr hour in the 1/2 streets. Try something new, play couple of donkaments or try dip your toes into some PLO games come on dude.

Like yeah, of course you get tired of it if you never challenge yourself.

The dynamics and mental challenges of poker keep it interesting to me after many hours, if you're just mindlessly bumhunting the dregs of society at the Iowa 1-2 tables obviously you are going to get burnt out.

Poker for me is also a battle against myself and my own fears in life as well. Being comfortable stacking off lighter in maniac games, buying in deeper and working to get comfortable,working on tailored exploits over time and see them succeed++ There is alot of stuff that i feel gives back to a person when playing poker, but you got to be willing to challenge yourself moving forward constantly. Ive found that most players is not.

Rice's grooming has now resulted in a beard that covers most of his face and wrings his neck.

He reminds me of Bigfoot, without the fashion sense, from the Tulsa King show.

He must have zero interest in pursuing anything in the romance department. Whether its ladies, dudes or other. He’s given up it seems.
