Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs - Page 2432 - Las Vegas Lifestyle Forum - Las Vegas Entertainment and Living Information

This is my estimate of what he earns from that game per year:

Avg Hands Per Hour: 35
Times: Avg Tables Per Week: 1.5
Equals: Adjusted Number of Hands Per Hour: 52.5
Times Avg Rake: $4.50
Times: Avg Number of Hours Played: 7
Equals: Avg Trooper Thursday Rake to Westgate: $1654
Times: 20% Rakeback to Trooper: $331
Times: 52 weeks
Equals: $17,200 annual income

Seem close? I just can't understand why Westgate employs such a misogynist, racist individual like this. I guess they haven't checked out his Twitter feeds? Oh right.... they both have been suspended now.

A long time ago it was mentioned that it is probably 50% cut of rake on the 1st game and 25% on additional games.

I listened to a few minutes of the podcast today, he also said a strip poker room that struggles made him an offer to move his game there and it wasn't near close enough. Most likely it was Bally's I am guessing.

Looks like El Diesel has a new modern phone in his video today. I think he recently still had some kind of flip phone.

He could easily double that as a dealer or waiter.

He plays TT games sometimes and he worked with Trooper on the Santa Claus homeless donuts and coffee video. Other than that not really.

He's done a bunch of other video work for him too, including Trooper's brief foray into drone footage.

He used to date Kelly, the waitress from the Linq/Caesars that used to be in the Troop videos around 2016-2017.

He also worked on the production of the viral classic where Santa gave donuts and coffee to the homeless on Christmas.

He's pretty much a Vegas legend. GGW podcast features two pillars of the Vegas vlogging landscape.

I have no idea if these rules are updated now with Elon or not. Looks like maybe he broke some of these with his Vanessa rants or others.

https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-an.../twitter-rules

I apologize.

I told Elon about Troop's hateful rants and vulgar interactions with wholesome Americans.

What else could he do?

Someone's probably not sleeping well. They forget the old rule.... No one f#&@s with the Trooper. Trooper does the f#&@ing.

No mention of his twitter ban in today's video, guess it happened late last night. He already seemed to be in a crappy mood as usual. Tomorrows vlog should be off the hook rants.

Man that trooper audio on the podcast his horrific. I love that hes complaining about being unlucky in the one 2 vlogs ago, he had a huge tourny score for him this year that makes this his biggest year ever, aside from that score hes up like 3k this year from cash games

Also i still contend El diesel has never made 40k in a year from poker, i know from his suggestions in that vlog that he should make 48k i think in a year but hes never done that, this is the year hes played the most hours and the previous high for hours was 2019 i believe where hes shared the graph and he was +28k on the year. I dont think hes played so much more this year that he will make 40k

You guys that are fixated on poker don't understand that most people aren't.

I'm sorry but the idea that he's going to quit poker by playing a million hours of 1/3 NL at a winrate of $14/hour is absolutely preposterous.

Its just his smugness about how he seems to have figured out life that bothers me. Like the teenagers should play more poker speech at the laundromat he gave lol

No one, except people the severely mentally ill, with 10-100k stored away would ration poptarts and goldfish to themselves for a week to preserve a roll.

I agree,that kind of behaviour is pretty disturbing and extremely far out to lunch.

Not saying he eats good normally, but that was a challenge week thing, to see if he could use only $25 + comps earned only that week. Just something for the vlog.

So he only had $25 to use for the first few days while building up comps to use for the rest of the week, as if he was a tourist coming in with zero comps to start.

Does anyone know how old El Diesel is?
If you know his real name, you could probably find out (google) what year he graduated from college, and call that 22 yrs of age.

The reason I ask is, at some point, he's gotta get sick of this lifestyle?
