Poker Star Begs for Money and Fans Quickly Turn on Him 

He never was that great a player.Pulls some very poor bluffs.Wants to raise all the time.Has a problem calling like so many of them.

I still can’t believe he got that bluff through against Handz.

​@graemebell8929 He got away with it for so long because he ran like God now that he's running normal he's going down hill hard that's the craziest part he still isn't even running bad just wait til he actually runs bad and gets cooler after cooler its gonna be bad then

Boy needs a break from poker. Looks out of energy

Rampage was at the CPT final table sitting there on his phone and punted first place against 2 amateurs, I wouldn’t give this guy a penny

None of them at this level gamble with their own money though. They all have backers which is why half are wearing sponsorship logos on their hats/shirts. So, from that perspective I really dont see anything wrong with the request. He's just chancing getting the steak from his fans where he wont be contractually indebted if he looses it all... opposed to going to an actual backer where he will. The issue comes more from his behaviour when it comes to gambling itself which is reckless to say the least

​@jamesw9873 Yes but majority of backers are people who have money. He's asking his subs who play minimal stakes and he doesn't care if he punts the money away. Seems like a high risk investment

@@MrJoker830 Oh I agree it’s high risk for the investor. But, I also don’t see anything wrong with him asking.

You said it, why would you support a loser like rampage

"Gambling losses" IRS on the way...

You're onto something. Curious how of all the players he lost his entire staked stake from it was Marianne O. The same guy whose car he was in later that night and is an intimate contact.

Interesting point. Never actually thought of that

Haha :)))) i missed it.

@@troycambo Maybe splitting that 200K loss? Or maybe there is a percentage? It happens all the time

sounds like a can't-lose proposition - what do those other guys really know about poker anyway

when you put it that way a person would be a fool to give him money.He never was that good and isnt up to the likes of Keating.

@@graemebell8929 When I first started watching Keating I thought he was a fish. It took me a while to realize that he's amazing. He plays loose as hell pre-flop and then out maneuvers everyone post. Those Hustler games are so deep, it must be scary to face off against him.

@@newstandardaccount yep and he is a really nice bloke on top of it.

Everyone knows that Doug Polk is just a HU nerd, he's just a really horrible player compared to Rampage in full ring. I mean, he's only got 3x the bracelets as Rampage and 5x tournament winnings. Complete trash.

Absolutely.

he is live as fuck and definitely is known to punt, but at the same time, dude did build up a real roll. You cant lose a million if you dont have a million in the first place, so the fact that his roll was 1million+ is nothing to scoff at.

@@smackinmatt But he could not keep it, poor money management, you start to take knocks you move down levels now he is in constant please stake me mode. Do you see Phil Helmuth or kid poker Danny N. going around asking for large sums of money? NOPE

​@smackinmatt you're just on a hater video. Rampage is actually pretty tough in a cash game. Dude is not scared money

I understand that part but then he does some dumb sh*t like jam with J-10 for $60k in a raised pot against 2 players.

​@@eltoroloco1936Exactly what he said ...and against who? None other than his friend Mariano! He is clearly not losing money. All of his new downswing adventure is meticulously planned so to get proof he lost it all... It even hurts to watch for bad acting. His channel is over!

You can't build wealth in poker without bankroll management.

​@@Peace-fd3tgisnt he the top poker channel behind maybe only brad, doug and dnegs. How is he possibly over with like 10x viewership over most poker channels

​@user-gs3tq6bx2u I think he meant, thinking players, that actually care about improving their game.

How about no. Most poker player monotone mutes with zero personality. I want entertainment, youtube aint gonna make you good at poker lol work with solvers and play will

It isn't insane to him. He is asking people to hand him over the million dollars.

He needs keep appearances up so his name stays popular in the poker world.. thas how he makes money.. youtube, his scam site, and getting staked and never playing with his own money

realistically speaking, nobody is rolled for such a game, but at least a serious player can put like 800k on the line and sell another 400 or something

​@BobBob-ey5br it's not a tournamnet it's a cash game. Noone needs 75 buyins for cash games your good with 20. Stop coddling your roll and play bigger if you wanna make money.

@@everythingallin4905 they don't have 20M ready to go imo

Most of them aren't trolling and bashing on him, they are trying to get their online friend to wake the fuck up before he ends up living in those tunnels under Vegas, broke and homeless.

Nah he’s just a scum game runner who’s dusted off all the rake (for now).

@@tombeh most are supportive but there's been a bunch of trolls too

Yah so very humble of him to beg his fans/following for $1million to go donk it up with lol

We’ve been hoping for this for quite some time now

Always has been overrated.

Yup, he just plays his all-in bluffs hoping for a hope/prayer on the river or his opponents folding. Just plain dbag bingo poker 🤣 ANYONE can do this shyt at a table, but takes someone with actual skills to play in these high stakes games. Yes, luck plays a part of course, but you need the basic poker skills not just bingo crap.

I've always found him entertaining simply because he IS a gambler and clearly doesn't have the mindset nor knowledge of a professional poker player. I suppose in a way it's kind of like watching a train wreck. But he puts himself out there on the internet for the world to see, so if he doesn't like it he can always stop.

You see, with his mindset (with the million dollar loss as a background context) he knows he needs to go back to basics at lower stakes, BUT HE CANT, HES STUCK... because at that rate (even if youre consistently winning) to win a million from lower stakes will take a whole lifetime to accomplish. That is why he believes he needs to stay at high stakes. Hes lost.

@@bryanryan4504 The gambling mindset. Trying to chase your losses. I know (as a degenerate but trying to reform gambler myself) lol.

Yessir

Sure I'll donate to you just send me your bank details, your name and address, your date of birth and your mother's maiden name and that's all.

Why do these creators like Alex say poker is skilled based with some luck? Wrong poker is gambling , a game of luck. With some skill involved

I thought of this exact same thing when watching that hand..

Fans staking poker players in cash game is just asking to be scamed. The oldest poker scam.

They are both running a scam poker site called splash squad! That and fishtopia is also a SCAM. I have knowledge that botts are playing on every table and they just rake in the cash... how the fuck you think they went from 1/3 to million dollar game ... come on guys

If anyone wants to make a REAL poker app hit me up... take all there players seriously.

@user-gs3tq6bx2u tournament wins versus being a long term winning cash player are NIGHT AND DAY. Being able to win a tournament is not easy, but it's way easier to win one than to make profitable cash decisions for years at a stretch.

@user-gs3tq6bx2u he is not good enough for high stakes cash games. I didn’t say anything about tournaments (which are MUCH more luck based, something he excels at)

Yea I have no idea why he doesn't join the streams with luda Chris and these other donkeys. Like DK or whatever. Like 10-50k buyins. That's more his level

I would bet my bankroll he can’t beat 25nl online. I will say he’s good for the game more content out there the better. He helps bring in new players.

the game is going to be streamed... find another excuse to hate him

@@temujinkhan6326 gullible or just a d rider.

@@temujinkhan6326 Are you 4 years old? Just because you can't think of how easy it is doesn't mean it is not. Punting most your money in questionable situations is already a red flag

@@mountainclothier3663 a 4 year old is still smarter than someone who is brain dead

@@temujinkhan6326 You're defending pretty hard here, sounds like I struck a nerve. You have engaged in this type behavior before and now you're pissed it got exposed?

I don't think I've ever seen a game where someone doesn't get stacked at every level there is lol

Yeah bro, exactly the same.

I'd rather give a dude a dollar for some rocks than to stake Rampage a single cent.

Even the Commish off of Rounders would not stake him.

Where can I get crack for a dollar?

eh. More like a politician who just got elected asking you for money for the next election instead of passing the laws he said he would.

Comment of the day

@@anthonyfoutch3152 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

he needs 10 million dollars to buy back his fold button.

bro i think you may have an higher ROI and lower variance by just taking those 5k and literally put it on fire ​@@anthonyfoutch3152

He's a leech. Now crying about criticism online after asking cor a million lol

I know for 100% certainty that. Rampage is a scammer.

Rampage, Mariano and Johnnie Vibes were and still are running a massive cheat ring, Ponzi scheme, and money laundering operation and have been for years. Frankly rampage should be in prison and sooner or later will be.

@BobBob-ey5bra lot of these RU-vid vloggers made a lot of money using their name to get players in and running clubs making a lot of money off the illegal rake.

Bro he calls himself a pro punter/gambler and never pokerpro. So if you fall for it you just stupid!! Haha

Here's how it works. The poker "pros" bink a large score or two in some major tournaments. All the sudden they think they are good and use their new found bankroll to play tons of other tournaments over the next few years. Most end up having a downward trending graph, while some may get lucky and continue to bink a few more scores. But most will fade away once they start to realize it's mostly luck. The ones with good personalities end up getting endorsements and usually have their buy ins paid for. That's what sustains them through their "career" - not their "awesome" poker skills. So any wins they have are pure profit, vs the ones thar have to use their own money. The entire industry is a scam because the idea keeps getting propagated that if you're a poker "genius" you can make millions on the tournament circuit. Although there is a basic amount of skill needed to stand a chance at those big scores, sorry there's just too much luck for anyone to win consistently. Don't get me wrong - I love poker and love playing tournaments as a hobby, but that's all it is and ever will be. I know better than to throw my whole career away to try and become "pro".

This is why I strive on only playing low stakes cause it's getting so ridiculous it's like they have to keep playing higher and higher to get views but not me thankfully

Some of us made good money in the golden days and got out.

@@Brian-vk1hm If you knew good poker strategy 10/20 years ago you could absolutely dominate. Anymore, most every poker player is well versed, so nowadays it mostly just comes down to luck. Look at Doug Polk. His results in recent years aren't nearly as good as what they were 10 or 15 years ago.

@GJT-bq3hr One day it will come out that Nik Airball is just funded by these streams. Nothing else makes sense. He's not very good at poker. Sometimes when he flops the nuts he does well I guess.

He’s asking for thousands lol

@@powerfulcornelius3285 very well, 2/5

The wait is over 🫡

@@AlexDuvall I messaged him on instagram asking him why he had deleted the video and he just played dumb. He uploaded it again yesterday.

😂😂😂😂😂

💯😂🔥

Don't lend him any money Mariano.

Some people do not understand the concept of not ending up in someone else's pocket. This is one of the ways they do it. It's like a loan shark. And when you can't pay up? Well, what can you give me? Here, do this job... that will pay for the juice. Come back next week and I'll give you another 'job.'

@user-gs3tq6bx2u you do realize that his RU-vid channel doesn't pay him enough to be punting $100k to $500k a session right?

@user-gs3tq6bx2u then why cry when he loses 500k lol get real

Tee shirts ain't gonna cover 1million punted dollars

Also Rampage " " Where the silence should actually be... "My name is Ethan and I'm a compulsive gambler"

@@tombeh faxxx. I could care less myself as I see it as entertainment. But he's starting to become a disgrace to the community.

Means he got $1M in either stocks, bonds, or other electronic means .

Means he is broke

Means he's broke

His style suits tournaments better than cash games

She's willing do it for me too this year! Haha I was like grandma, No!

Hi Rampage

Lol

I think he'll bounce back

​@@AlexDuvall did u scrub all the comments about punt boy off your site? Well if u did I bet u involved in the shenanigans too

@@Shannon-fb2mk I don't control what YT shows or doesn't. He literally blocked me for this vid. Not sure what you're talking about mate

@@AlexDuvall ok I was getting a little riled up we coo

unfortunetly most like him end up taking brooks way out from shawshank redemtion.

thank u! I have no dog in the fight but all this hate from keyboard warriors playing 1/2 at some card room is a mob mentality

He has no point.. if his peers or other players were doing that then he has a point.. but comments will in the most part he trolling or negative. It comes with it

He is point is dumb, 99% of his comments are ppl who don't or won't ever play against him

He's just gaslightjng so people stop exposing him for being a scammy launderer

I thought exactly the same - why would you think he is wealthy? He either IS broke or very close to

He isn't broke. He bought a house and makes a ton of money off youtube and online cash game rake. Plus he is staked in almost everything

@@jimbojones9118 there's a video where he's being interviewed and he makes $5K-$10K/month on RU-vid, so not that much

I doubt it.. hes seems pretty comfortable.. like comment below said he probably makes enough from youtube and his scam online sites to make good money

He bought his house when he was running hot - and that is great! Then at least he has something to show for it. RU-vid can’t make up for the spew he is doing - he needs Mr Beast money for that! 😁 I hope he is not broke. But he is definitely not beating the games at these stakes and he is not rolled for playing them.

He can’t help himself he got champagne thoughts with lemonade bankrolls, he’s addicted to bingo style of play and can’t even see it, it’s a shame to see it

SOUNDS LIKE HE "CAN'T HANDLED THE TRUTH"

how many wsop/wpt have you won dog?

less than him I can tell you dat

Exactly

Lol is that u

1000% this

All parties involved benefit

Yeh he's greedy and makes content for the payday but we should be grateful he's so greedy? lol absolute moron on or off the table. Btw so obvious he wants to launder the million by losing it to a friend on purpose and then split the money to avoid sharing the profits with stakeholders

@@AlexDuvall no they dont. Only the real poker players. He is a detriment to the blind followers. He’s a legit gambling addict at this point. I like your content and nobody is bashing him. These are facts

Let's hear from all the stakes who got paid by the puntster

A little run good and publicity goes to the head. Delusions of grandeur

Even a broken watch is right twice a day. Phil Helmuth is garbage.
