Is it me or is this guy taking over in Twitch poker. He's clearly great and poker and a very entertaining guy.

Can you see him being bigger than Staples sometime this year? If he keeps shipping that Thursday Thrilla then theres no doubt he'll be up there with Jcarver imo

Thought i'd make this thread since for some reason he doesnt have a dedicated one on here yet so here you go Tonka....enjoy!

People like watching the sweats, Tonka has had probably the biggest one on twitch to date. His stream also seems slightly less educational and more entertainment than a Staples/Jcarver stream which probably makes it more watchable for some people.

Once he changes his PS table layout from the Win95 one he has now I think he'll do well

Tonkaaaa is the nuts of twitch poker.

He will be as big of not bigger than Jcarver since Jason is moving to NJ and games won't be exciting as ROW pokerstars.

Jamie has really fallen off as of late and the holes in his mental game have really showed.

By far the best stream at the moment and I think it's pretty educational and he's miles ahead staples game. Though haven't watched much staples stream I don't think it gives much value if you have some experience with poker. Too much saltiness and vamooooos.

I think he will be bigger than staples at some point but carver is hard to reach. The fanbase with the riu is so huge at the moment. Live meetings etc.

Oh and the tonkaas hi/lo donkaments are amazing.

fwiw I feel like I learn a lot more watching Tonka than the other guys. The spots he talks about often are about being unexploitable though more than trying to exploit others, so it isn't going to be very useful to lower stakes players.

I knew he would be popular when he first started out on Twitch, always seemed like a fun guy when i saw him on "Easywithaces" stream and i agree i think staples is more on the decline now than anything else and Tonkaaa could definitely be the more popular streamer in the future.

obviously tonkaaaaa is a high stakes SNG and MTT player it would show more value in terms of educational purposes.

people that watch staples is for beginners and newbies that want to join the game


and to the guy posting tonkaaaaa doesnt go through any education/strategy on poker. you are wrong. he brings value and strategy together.


best stream on twitch rn imo. Max silver, ruperte, pokerdevil I would say would be 2nd in terms of strategy / entertainment

Far ahead of Staples IMO.

It's more entertaining stream, to my ears there is less of the tired repetitive ****, I rarely find myself turning the volume down because of the annoying buzz words that Staples uses.

Tonkaaa is a few levels above play wise too and doesn't seem to drop off much at all through long hours. Since the middle of last year Jaime has been showing the strain. It's not meant as an insult as I am in bad shape myself but Jaime is really unhealthy and doesn't seem to be getting anywhere close to becoming healthier. That takes its toll once you sit yourself in front of a camera for 10 hours.

Jcarver is a different beast, he isn't the greatest player but he plays high stakes and is entertaining, he was the market leader and an innovator. I don't see anyone touching him viewer wise for a while yet.

Imo staples is becoming more a streamer who plays poker than a poker player who streams. Isn't he on the negative side in profits after the whole streaming and strars pro deal? To be fair he's excellent online pro for strars. Overall seems to be losing in the games he streams and occasionally binks something to keep his head above the water. Just like another average joe who dreams getting the big one time.

And little lol he was bashing some russian dude in his big22$ or something like that. Allso stating moorman fanboys are funny. Seems to have som attitude allso but gues he deserves it.

Yeah think tonka will take over number 2 spot pretty easy. He will have far less trolls than staples cause he actually wins so hard to argue with him. Jamie is up like 50k in 4 years and claims he is a poker pro. His average wage must work out like 2 euro a hour from poker ha. He needs to admit he a streamer not a poker pro.
He did come up with the best line ever when he said he was in the top 100 online toruney players in the world. Worst is he believes that

Lets get the salt out in this thread.



Kayla just told me Jamie has aces on the button with about 20 beibers left.
If they hold, Dottie says Jamie is gucci for the final table and a lemon lion is coming.

The hype is real so its time to make a dono to the stream!

You had to create a new acount here, so that you can hate on somebody in a thread, that is about someone else ...

Why not post on your original 2+2 acount?

Tonka is the best on twitch. His play is very good and he's not as irritating as some of the other streamers. I doubt whether he will make it to no 1 on twitch as it takes a masochist to put on all the sreaming hours necessary to do that.

Tonkaaaa's a legend, most entertaining stream by far especially with the drunk blackjack.

Haha calm down i was only given advice. Jaime is obv a great streamer but for him to claim he a poker pro when his hourly must be 2 euro a hour is insane and will obv lead to **** in his chat. The chat cant argue with tonka cause he keeps winning. The chat cant argue with Jcraver cause he doesn't pretend he a pro anymore. Jaime makes bad plays then cant handle when chat says it. He hides his results now and claims its all variance. He must have 4 year downswing lol.

And this is my first name on here and yes ive won more than 50k in 4 years. Doesn't make me a poker pro or in the top 100 in the world lol. Makes me above average.

How much hours do you have to play to make 50k with $2/h?? Can you play that much poker in 4 years?
