El Diesel shares 8 terrible things that have happened to him at the poker table in the last 3 days (hold up 3 fingers in an odd manner).

All 8 of those things were pretty standard, not awful, but 3 (hold up 3 fingers in an odd manner) of the 8 were not getting paid off. Can anyone help El Diesel figure out why none of the other players, including the worst player at the table, aren't paying off El Diesel off when he hits a hand?

A follow up thought: When the board runs out four to a straight (hold up four fingers), how hard would it be to blast El Diesel off his hand and out of the pot with a fat river bet?


by Lionelhuttz

The saddest part of all this is if Diesel just straddled every hand, took the hat off while playing and retired the oversized basketball shorts he would be getting so much action he wouldn’t know what to do with it all. Basically, he can change his appearance and personal rule on never straddling or start playing all his hours in California and maybe Herbs and Rye can coach him

Yeah, its like absolutely hilarious the lack of self reflection/self criticism. Even the biggest actionplayer born to this earth would hesitate paying off El Diesel in a hand where he makes bets trying to gets stacks in. Like he literally smells the nutz like you can smell fresh pizza when entering a pizzeria in Italy.


by Hellmuth was right

this could get Rice's food expenses down below $100 a month, he's definitely going to start hitting up these fast food places at like 4:28 in the morning

Lol. Most of the public sentiment I've seen about the Wendy's surge pricing has been very negative , but if there's anyone that will eagerly try to exploit it, it's Rice.


He'll eat all of the Wendy's menu items with a spoon.


frostys are a spoon food


Frostys are a meal and not a drink.

frostys are a spoon food

All items except the frosty!
He will smugly have a better way to eat a frosty.


by angle_shooter

He says 8 terrible things happened to him in the last 3 days and then rattles of 8 of the most ridiculously standard hands. Like losing with top pair vs top and bottom pair, not getting enough action when he had a winning hand, missing a combo draw, or a bad run out that kills his action. These are what he classifies as terrible things happening to him.

Remember when there is a "whale" at 1/2 nl and someone else gets the pocket kings he has been waiting for to take on the whale that's him running bad.

I won’t tolerate Leon catching any strays around this thread. That guy has been 100% solid and respectful to everyone.

i don't think anyone has been questioning him nor slandering him - i love leon's thread and have nothing but love for the guy

but his results are statistically that one in a million outcome, definitely possible with millions of people playing video pokers, but common sense would force you to consider the likelihood of someone juking the self reported results would be greater than the likelihood of someone running that pure

That would certainly make his “Terrible things that happened to me today” list.

I saw this on Wendys site:

Pay $3 for a Frosty key chain and get a comped small frosty with any purchase. So find the cheapest purchase which probably is a small frosty and then once a day claim the comped frosty.

Just watched the latest Sprkli vlog, and it hit me once again that i have never seen Trooper so geniunely happy and motivated to do things.

Its pretty clear that he was overdue to put the gambling behind him,then focus his time/energy on something else more fullfilling for him. As much as i dislike Trooper and have made fun of him, its good to see the direction he is headed in life -wich is clearly good for him on a personal level.

he actually complained about this happening a week or so ago "of course someone else got pocket kings against the "whale" lmao.
imagine needing pocket kings to take on a 1/2 "whale" and calling yourself a pro.


by Alpha Fish

yeah you have to suspend disbelief entering that thread, at this point the totality of his self-reported results over the course of the decade is mathematically impossible

I usually quickly scroll through his video poker hits but still really enjoy the overall story progression and food/entertainment reviews

nothing wrong with allowing a bit of a poetic license imo

Ya zero chance leon isn't fibbing some. It's amazing he doesn't get called on it more but it's because he is so likeable/entertaining.


You can totally see the Trooper is getting high on his own supply.

Less walking around the strip, ears deep in candy, and its not lookin good


Leon doesn't post TRs to his local casino. I think he has lost a lot there and only mentions them in passing. Or doesn't at all.


Jaman on Only Friends pod talking about vloggers, etc.

+1 I assumed the Vegas stuff is all true and he runs bad and plays even worse pay tables at his local. I think I had figured out what the local was awhile back but forgot. Leon is the patron saint of VP grinders, great TRs that inspire me even though I only chisel some freeplay/comps on JOB.

Has anyone been recommended this South African, gto version of diesel? I swear the algorithm recommended him because he looks roughly the same as diesel if you squint: https://youtube.com/@DamonJFine?si=I5jCx...

Soon to be wearing a logoed muumuu.

... it's good to see the direction Trooper is headed in life, which is clearly good for him on a personal level.

Is it really?
I see it (selling candy) simply as a dodge from reality.
Is anyone naive enough to think the Troopers are making enough money, selling candy two days a week to pay their bills?

They're selling hats too.


And everyone knows that’s the real cash cow.

It makes sense. Not having to worry about and deal with $1k losing sessions would make a lot of people happier.

He doesn’t have to deal with suckouts from those fish that he despises and looks down on so much.

They have other sources of income like vlogging.

Not to mention Trooper Sunday and the Go Gamble merch and coffee bean sales. But yeah it seems Trooper has finally found his true calling in life, and it has nothing to do with gambling or poker. Who would have thunk it!
