It's been a few years since I've been to GR Paris. The Ribcap use to be one of my favorite steaks, but GR took it off the menu after covid (you might call it "Corona"). I really enjoyed the vibe at the bar/lounge area. A decent solo meal would run $175+. Cocktail . . . appetizer . . . a few glasses of Cabernet . . . steak and a side. Maybe an after dinner drink. Getting

FWIW i have eaten at GR Steak couple of times myself,been a let down both times. Overpriced+medium quality,probably as expected from an insanely famous chef as Gordon.

Place like SW Steakhouse at the Wynn absolutely murder it,their A5 Wagu main there is best steak ive had in Vegas ever. Vic and Anthonys at Golden Nugget also was top stuff a few years back,the memories man.

I've only been to SW once. It was a treat. I recall the wine list being . . . scary. It made me feel poor 😉


I am pretty sure I spent $125 myself when I used the $100 diamond voucher at the old BLT Steakhouse in Ballys.

How likely is it you believe Rice actually walked 9 miles on that trail? Probably more like 3.

Lol I'll still take way the under.

Everything this buffoon says is either a blatant lie or otherwise just 100% incorrect. Yeah sure, he walked 9 miles through the desert in his clown PJ bottoms. He gets out of breath just walking for a few seconds.

Oh and don't forget about that Arizona Moose he encountered.

She needs to adopt Vegas Nomad's free seltzer refill method. If only she had access to a fully stocked EDR with unlimited free seltzer.


Can't believe he was wearing the same PJ bottoms


My god. Who the hell are all these idiots posting vlogs ? Rice, pman, trooper , and that craps degen

They all seem ****ing ******ed.

no, the key is that you always have to bring one with you everywhere you go - because you couldn't otherwise ever drink anything

you gotta imagine all the times in your life where there's a real social cost to it

think of social gatherings, dating, etc

Trooper could do it then, he's always wearing a backpack. All he has to do is get one with a pocket for the bladder. Plus, he doesn't much care about "social gatherings and dating".

Yeah exactly. But don't forget neither of them drink, it's strictly ice waters for them. And none of that fancy bottled water that isn't free either!

I guess Trooper doesn't drink because he's too much of a tightwad, and LT is probably forbidden from drinking because Timmy doesn't drink so why should she get to enjoy it.

They wouldn't have even looked at the steaks on that menu. Their game plan was ordering an appetizer and 2 "entrees" that came to just under the $100 dining credit they had to use. The Troopers really are the last of the big spenders in Vegas. And this was them with a comped meal, how miserable would it be when they have to order stuff that they are actually paying for.


Really hopes someone in the poker community can reach out to Casino Nomad. If they can collab and get him to to at least break even at poker vs other games it would draw in a new audience to poker that normally plays casino games.

-he never mentions his dad
-he wants everyone to think he’s a big tough guy who isn’t scared of anyone

My guess is abusive, alcoholic dad = doesn’t want to drink and end up that way.


Mason is referring to David recently being arrested. NVG thread, and Tony is referring to when he was arrested on terrorism charges over 5 years ago for making threats to a casino after losing.

Trooper diamond celebration dinner....aka $100 yearly comp

wings $23.99

idiot sandwich $28.99

fish and chips $36.99

and........2 waters

Total $89.97 plus generous tip????

no beef wellington, no dessert, no soda, no coffee, no wine, ZERO CELEBRATION

WIthout any context, this sounds like dog doodoo. Las Vegas is a hell hole for food.

I dont know why but i picture that guy the trooper97 pooping all of this food out on the toilet and being constipated. His face sort of looks constipated but thats a mean thing to say. IM sorry.

There is tons of great food in Vegas. If you don't want to get ripped off get off the strip. If you don't want medicore at best food avoid overpriced celebrity chef garbage.

Yup. I did the Hells Kitchen in Vegas and the GR restaurant at Caesar’s in Atlantic City. Neither were that great. Definitely overpriced for what the food was.

They are part of the Wack Pack. I think so called by us bc, as you've noticed, they are wack. They provide us with endless comedy. There used to be another couple members, Bikeking19 and Thinkblue Poker, but they stopped poker vlogging bc Vegas bottom-stakes poker chewed them up and spit them out.

I'm guessing that he had bad incidents while being drunk, to include that long scar on his cheek(that must've been bad-looking when he got it), realized he's an alcoholic and quit drinking, but who knows.

He mentioned that he felt like barfing right after they left the restaurant.

The high-end fish sticks did look pretty good but were still fish sticks. Wings, no matter how good, are poor-man's food (no offense to the poor). But basically they ate the same kind of thing they eat at their usual haunts. Brisket sandwiches at GR are indeed a cut above the ones at Bucees from their recent road trip.

to include that long scar on his cheek (that must've been bad-looking when he got it),
realized he's an alcoholic and quit drinking, but who knows.

This is also my take on Trooper's scar, and lack of drinking.


1 game going on the second to last night of PH poker. Wonder if they'll have any games going tomorrow when the room closes at midnight.

Welcome to the adventures of the Wack Pack.

I originally said casino nomad could be a member of the wack pack when he came on the scene except he was gainfully employed at a remote corporate job. However, it appears in later vlogs that his job is a Rice-like exaggeration and his looney crap obsession certainly gives him membership status


My theory is that it is due to vehicle crash and head hitting the windshield without a seatbelt.

The penultimate question is: how did Trooper get his name?

My last question is: why didn't Trooper invite ELD to eat at the celebration dinner?

I think if it was from a non-alcohol incident, he would've answered the early numerous vlog questions about it, but he always ignored those questions about his scar, like if it was something he didn't want to revisit.

He selected the Trooper name after the heavy metal song Trooper. I think it was by Black Sabbath.

Why didnt Trooper invite El D to eat at the celebration dinner? Well, bc who invites El D to eat at a celebration dinner?

If they do, Rice will be there hanging on for dear life bc it's the best job he's ever had. IE, one of the only jobs that didn't fire him for his antics.
