At 29 most folk have a career, or a job, bills to pay, thoughts of moving up the housing ladder, possibly kids etc. This is tragic.

pman's latest vid where he's playing 2/5 he's giddy that he made $700

Turns out he won a $1,300 bomb pot where the other guy mistakenly mucked his hand where it's likely the pot would have been chopped so basically his entire session was because of this one hand.

So all pman has to to make money in poker is win bomb pots and have a guy mistakenly muck his hand to win.

This is after going over other hands where he made $800 ish profit, what happened to that money, why not go over some hands where he lost as well?

After seeing some of his hands I feel like his style is basically a classic OMC, plays abc poker, he underbets when he has a made hand losing a ton of value and probably spews all his money getting stubborn when he has top pair or overpair.

Rampage has his 'loan sharking' business to fall back on.

I saw where he celebrated his 29th birthday with an older gentleman. I presume his Grindr date, so maybe he is ok with an alternative lifestyle. He will be ok, just needs a stable life partner to help him.

that's his dad

Sorry, but I gotta LOL at the last two posts.

My prediction: The grind begins with a Sunday evening 3 hour session.. no poker for the next 6 days. The following Sunday: the grind begins!

I don't think pman could put in a 40-hour week if it was for a 6-figure payout.

He's what you get when you have parents who have told you that you were special since a very young age.

He had a better summer than Becker and Tice so maybe he’s not quite the puntfish everyone says he is.

I'm honestly jealous of his situation thinking back when i was in my 20s wanting to be a poker player.

Supportive parents paying for your housing and expenses near the strip and all you need to do is grind poker all day without having to worry about day to day life expenses and all you need to do is grow the roll and expenses to hang out with your friends

He is just so lazy and untalented that he can't capitalize and he just spends all day getting high and playing microstakes online.

Pman wasting his opportunities.

He had to rebuy, didn’t he?

don't know who becker is but it was my impression that tice was more content creator than poker player, was he a legit player before he became berkey's intern?

You did see about Becker in Daniels' videos? I thought you posted there a lot.

Tice played HU vs Bill Perkins a few years ago, I think that was toward the beginning of his poker, he is a solver pro.

Did he? Rampage says those stats were only for his first bullet in the $10k's.

Tice doesn't create content himself but was taken under the wing of Chicago Joe then Berkey as a supposedly prodigious poker player. The child of the sim. Not sure he will turn out to be that good but probably has some talent. He comes across as a bit of a douche though so many people don't like him!

same as this thread - don't watch the vids but adore the threads discussing them

He got 2nd at the WPT in Florida for 550K right before the series. Was final 8 in the 25K HU @ WSOP last year. Kid is legit.

They probably call him Wonder Boy at home.

Lazy and untalented largely stems from his parents doing/paying everything for him.

There's a big difference between supporting and enabling.

Pman has a crippling addiction, without his parents he’d be broke/dead. His insulated life now is probably better than his parents sending him to some rehab facility. Let him ride his scooter around, dust it at llsnl, pop some edibles, and watch tv. The more relaxed and sedate he is, will help lessen his urge to gamble. Diesel is a different case, because of all his degrees, I don’t even think Pman could read a fiction paperback cover to cover.

Some of you talk about Pman like he’s Perky and his parents have pro sports team money. Pdad bought him a tiny condo and seems to give him a small allowance. That keeps him off government assistance, so no wasted tax dollars — best case scenario for everyone involved.

just curious - if the pdad buying a condo and financially supporting him just speculation that enough people have repeated that it's now treated as fact or has the pman ever said that is indeed what's going on


iirc back in his origin story days he posted here about owning a few bitcoins and living off that

Condo is in his dad's name. Pman claims he pays for it though.

His dad's name was confirmed on the deed that is public records. Pman pretty much told where the condo was when he got it.

oh that's totally normal in his situation - i know a guy who makes 7 figures a year sportsbetting but still needs both his manhattan apartment and his hells kitchen office (he employs like 7 people) in his mom's name as a cosigner simply because the landlords freak out when they see his enterprise is in gambling

it's a fully registered company, gives himself a salary, they still don't like the idea of it and require someone more reliable in his mom to cosign everything


as a professional gambler who's been looking at relocating to nyc myself, it's been a real issue where they always want proof of employment and when i tell them i'm self employed a la gambling then they just assume i'm a drug dealer or whatever and want nothing to do with me - imagine vegas is a bit more friendly for that stuff but it's a real thing where a landlord can see tenant streams on twitch for a living with 30 subs and decides they want the dad's name on it because the dad is more reliable should pman be short on funds

not saying who is paying one way or the other - but totally reasonable for it to be in his dad's name, something which i may have to end up conceding defeat on myself in the near future as i'm packing up and leaving maine finally

There is no rent, his dad bought it in full, possibly Pman makes some kind of payments back to his dad, probably very relaxed payment schedule.

Of course there is HOA and other bills though.
