Mark Ari has unfinished business in California but they will still face off at the Denny's in Primm. The date of that battle has not yet been decided/disclosed.

I wish he would shorten the length of his videos. I don't think I can continue spending 15+ minutes watching them.

Doesn't seem like he's doing ok. Facing random guys in headsup matches at Dennys?

I don't know if it's his latest vlog, but the last vlog I saw of him, was when he drove to the bike. It was on a Wednsday night. All he did was complain about how it seemed dead at the poker room and it appeared like he just drove back home, b itchen the whole time.
In other words, he's become the sec Trooper. He's way over abused this crazy, mad poker player schtick.
It's become pretty unwatchable.
Was nice while it lasted I guess.

I give Mark all the credit in the world. He tried his best it seems, to do something different, to get more viewer's. It just didn't work. I don't think any of his recent videos surpassed 2k views.
I don't think he's giving up, it's part of what he does, but he must have realized by now, he's pretty much reached his ceiling.
Will keep on taking a peak once in a while I guess. Still a fan.
Go go go Ari!

Well he resurfaced after Marle appeared on the Scene
But her vlogs are more miss than hit and getting a lot of dislikes lately

It wouldn't be nice or funny for him to make vids where he kicks her while she's down, wouldn't suit his style of humor either. And it disproves the point he was making that she has audience just because she's a woman - she actually LOST subscribers last couple vids she posted on the day she posted

I'm sure he'll be back when he can find a new nemesis

I think his nemesis is in the mirror.

Hey all, sorry for necroing this old thread. But i just recently saw that Mark was back to backing videos.I was just wondering if he even play poker now or just has a hard on talking about Andrew Neeme and being a gentlemen? Has anyone been keeping up with his most recent vlogs or am i just wasting my time on them? Thanks.

Looks like Mark Ari could outlast many of the past few years' top poker vloggers. Trooper seems on the way out. Neeme seems to be burned out. Brad Owen barely posts. Poker priest in invisible. Marle moved on the bigger and better things. Bikeking seems to have given up.

But Mark Ari lives!!!

Mark Ari is an amazing poker player and an amazing human being. There is nothing you can't like about this guy. If anyone has watched his recent vlogs a recap would be appreciated. Thanks.

IMO, just another very depressed person who's negative about everyone else.

I will have to your word that he is a great poker player since i have yet to meet him as of yet.But i will give him props on still being around on youtube and yeah some of his old stuff was good to gain some information from. And he seems to have the ability to have people either love him or hate him just based on his videos.

Saw what I think is his most recent video. I liked it.
5 minutes and very cohesive and to the point.
Ari is more of a teacher than a vloger.
Seems to be doing swell again.

Hmm, 3 wonderful years of watching Mark Ari on YouTube.
Don't know what the purpose of that one was. But, I've got no else to blame but myself for three years of watching Mark Ari when I could've been doing something else!

I'm out on these latest videos.
At least a few months ago they were interesting and funny/weird.

I'm not watching some random dude talk at the camera for 17 minutes rambling, it's kind of like Trooper videos without the constant coffee shots

Staying power in blogging and vlogging is hard as hell. It's a burnout and most people make no money at it. If you want to try a fun exercise, go back to some of the fun old 2+2 threads and try to see how many of the links are still live. Not very many. Or look at the last time someone updated their blog. But, you can buy up some domain names if you want.
