Wow! I feel bad for him. I never saw him like this.
He should quit poker for the entire series, yep, the entire series and work doubles. I'm sure he can arrange to work a lot of overtime. Clear his head, save up all the money he'll make and start from scratch after the WSOP. That's what he should do.

Great advice, he could make some good money during WSOP and time away from playing poker would do him some good.
On the plus side..........

I 100% agree with all of this. I feel bad for him too but something needs to change. I still feel like he wastes a lot of time. He must have really needed that nap until 11pm then he drives out of his way wasting how much more time to get freaking coffee? Enough with the coffee already. That aspect of his life (addiction) has been discussed enough in the vlogs.
I've always read that a proper bankroll is 30-40 buy ins. Also it is recommended that 6 months of life bills are paid in advance. That would help reduce the pressure at the table and the swings would hurt much less. With 40 buy ins you wouldn't feel the swings at all.
He needs to work his ass off dealing and save up 12-15 thousand dollars. While he is doing that he should take up the coaching offers he's received and study his game reading books and watching videos. Something is off with his game. The top professionals bust their ass working on their game. If he is doing that then he should talk about it more and less about how and when he gets his coffee.
Why in the world did he take shots at 2/5 if he was so close to going broke? Also, what happened to selling pieces of a summer tournament package? Too lazy to make that happen? I bet he would have had several people willing to buy in. That would have kept him in action while he was building his roll.
He's on tilt. later on he posted on FB wondering if he should play the tournament at the Nugget that same night. He's burned out from dealing too. I think he took a night off from his regular shift the other night. He's burned out and depressed and I think the only way out is to work it off. Work as many hours as they will give him. He can't give up the vlog no matter what because it has some momentum and that could be his future. He's worked too hard on it to fuck that up at this point. Go to work, Trooper, poker will always be there. Get your head back on straight.
I totally agree. If you can look at yourself in the mirror at the end of the day and KNOW that you gave 100% effort and worked your very hardest then you had a successful day. If you do that 14 days in a row the burned out depressed feelings will start to fade.
I wonder why he couldn't edit the vlogs while he is doing the dreaded laundry? The guy is probably busting his ass. However, the impression I get from the vlogs is that he talks about being busy but he doesn't explain very well why he is always late or running out of time.
The vlogs are very similar each day. He has to have the editing down to science by now.
I say deal cards like a mad man, save 15k, study his game and get a girlfriend. Those would all be great subject matter for the vlogs. Tell us some stories heard while dealing, what leaks have you found from studying, talk about dates. Anything new would be great.
WSOP couldn't have come at a better time if you want to get in some extra hours dealing and they need good dealers too. Bust ass for 6 weeks and then take a whole week off and play poker with a straight head during the time off from dealing.
Yes bc the dealers there suck horribly. Beyond terrible. Slow, make constant mistakes, etc. all of them brand new. One last night named ChaCha :facepalm:
I agree with Pocket Aces he needs some new material, a girlfriend, something new :0074 the vlogs are mostly the same. I think he should save up the rest of the year work as much as he can and start back at the beginning of 2017 when he has 10-15 grand bankroll. He is definitely on tilt.
