Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs - Page 3098 - Las Vegas Lifestyle Forum - Las Vegas Entertainment and Living Information

Psycho babble in your mind, but most certainly based on truth. If you sent this thread to 10 psychologists and had them read through it, I would confidently say no less than 8 out of 10 would categorize several regular posters in here as having some of the traits I've mentioned. No doubt about it.

I guess if you felt like all that time you spent watching Dr. Phil was worth it, then fair play to you.

I can see him taking it then quitting in less than 3 full shifts.

Well I'm not a 50 year old woman who watches daytime TV, but I suppose 7 years of undergrad/grad school gives you some insight into things.

Important to remember Diesel wanted to only work at WSOP, dealing doubles at the cash tables, and only if he got free rooms at Paris/Horseshoe not Rio due to the longer commute. He also hinted at his mixed game knowledge and that he could be a high stakes mixed game dealer.

Now, he’s auditioning to be a tourney dealer at Orleans for a free room and to order off the discounted union worker menu. If that isn’t a clear admission that inflation is real, I don’t know what is. If he becomes a traveling dealer aka a carnie, that will be even better.

I’m pulling for diesel to get the dealer gig and hold on to it for dear life.

There has to be dumpster diving opportunities at the Orleans. With his gift of gab he may be able to talk his way into many stale bagels

They just need muppets to deal holdem. They ain't putting rice in a mix game, in my opinion!

Troopers latest is about how their sales are sucking buttocks

Maybe he doesn't know that NFL head coaches have to attend away games.

If by some miracle he got a job coaching for a Texas NFL or college team who mostly played in Texas and never played a single game in NY he'd file state tax in NY and smugly tell us what a tax expert he is.

He might not GET the job. I can see this kind of conversation:
Orleans: Where have you worked as a dealer?
El D: I haven't.
Orleans: Okay, which dealing school did you attend?
El D: I don't need a school for such an easy job. Any idiot can deal!

Orleans: Next!

That might actually be good for him. He likes driving all over the country anyway. There are barnstormer dealers that follow the WSOP Circuit. Apparently it pays well enough for normal people to deal at them, Diesel's going to think he hit the mother lode.

The food court at the Orleans is right next to the poker room though, so he's not going to get many takers by volunteering to go fetch the food.

Poker players are very lazy in general and the average age in the Orleans poker room is 117 so hed do just fine.

I remember a cheeseburger, small fries and a Coke. You gave them a buck and got a nickel back in change.

I'm currently at the airport in Amsterdam. The food joint next to my gate wants 18 euros for a hamburger.

This is why you need to go to lounge in the airport (not saying that you paid €18 for a hamburger!)

If El D ever found his way into an airport lounge he might implode with the possibilities of all the stuff he could take

It really is a perfect place for him, it’s a room of retired people living on social security or pensions or government benefits who play small stakes and complain about rules all the time. He’ll be very popular I imagine it he can get the job. Any person under 30 doesn’t watch baseball, but luckily for him, most men who are 70 years old, do! So they’ll love to hear his baseball trivia, and know who John olerud is!

WTF

I thought Rice flew to SF on his way to feast at The French Laundry.

It appears he is just scouting a lot in the homeless encampment.

He's literally just wandering around like a homeless person. His mini trips are always just an excuse to avoid paying for a room for 2 nights anyway.

Oh and we are to believe that someone at the airport came up and asked him how he gets such big calves. LMAO yeah its called being a fat-ass!

He is also incredibly unathletic....completely out of breath walking around that park in the rain. He seriously should get that checked out although his access to health care is a bit unclear
