Against better judgement I watched the el d challenge videos.

This mfer filled half the ****** box with WHITE RICE

That box should be ALL MEAT. UNBELIEVABLE

NO, I don't want to look at you. I need more time to process this abortion.

He could've easily stuffed the bagels in his pants.

yeah we spent a couple days on this episode last week

from his response, "to keep the integrity of the challenge" he was not allowed to cook his own rice or just buy a bag of bagels.

and since all he wants to eat is rice and bagels, he had to "buy them" using comps.

so yes, a $20 box of rice and bagels

what an imbecile

maybe pman needs to give the 20/40 and/or 40/80 limit game at Bellagio a shot

That would be worse. He would freak out about all the trash he'll get beat with and all the chasing going on and will complain about not being able to protect his hand. Basically another game he completely misunderstands how it's played.

I would rather make fish with TBC, Trooper, and Diesel in a hotel room than play limit holdem

Cool, thanks for the feedback! Yeah he runs a pretty big fishy game 3x a week there, had some other appearances too by Andrew Neeme and Mariano. Will let him know he's on the right track

Yawn… We all know, because there’s less gambling in it and you are a gambling addict. You would do better in a mid/high limit game but you’d rather punt $300/500nl buyins at a time paying some terrible Vegas nit’s bills. Keep shoving those deuces all in pre and defending 36o, it’s noble nit charity work you are doing.

You should try it. It's more fun than nl, at least more active and friendly for sure, and defending 63o isn't near as dumb in limit poker. I'm not talking about 3/6 or 4/8.

For the life of me, I still do not know how TBC is not broke and still moving along just fine. At least we need an estimate on his expenses but not down to the penny like El Diesel.

Diesel would have a heart attack if he found out how much TBC wastes on housing and travel expenses.

TBC isn't broke cause he actually wins decent money at poker, travels to places where games are great and isn't a super nit.

Could you imagine how good of a poker player we could create if we took the best qualities from Trooper, Pman, Diesel and TBC?

Trooper's emotional control when faced with adversity like actual coolers/bad beats and haters.

Pman's dogged ability to grind everyday through thick and thin.

Diesel's healthy eating habits.

TBC's buy in strategy to maximize profits.

To be fair, TBCs biggest random jackpots over the years on slots and VP are what keeps him afloat. 6 akin to picking up 25-30k a year in tournament scores without the grind. I can't stand him as a human being, we've had our differences but I respect his fearlessness. He's operating at max capacity given his condition.

Diesel's diet is largely rice and bagels and he hauls around a rice cooker. He doesn't need a microwave since he prefers canned meats on crackers in his room.

Which is optimal?

Can we speculate on this?

Has he maybe gotten a J-O-B?

Maybe he’s advising casino executives on how to make their casinos more profitable?

You may have something there. Because it's ridiculous to not play the last day of the challenge at all. Especially when he could've gotten a better sandwich by playing a half hour.

Even a short buy is going to be...$2400?

Ha id rather drive cross country with Diesel than play NL these days. If I was forced to play hold em it would definitely be something like 40/80 limit.

If those 3 shared a room TBC would go out to Walmarts (not a typo) and come back to see Diesel filleting trooper to make the skin suit.
