Rampage Poker is BROKE 

Bankroll management is an underated skill.

Back to driving the trucks for Gnish again.

That Q of diamonds was the poker gods saying "go back to 1/3"

The fact that high tier players still chose to play at the Hustler after the J4 cheating is amazing to me. If you go there and lose money that’s on you.

Ethan built a fantastic following. Crushing 2/5 games, making the upward trajectory along with Mariano. A legend in MA. Rampage was born. Going on trips to Las Vegas sent his followers into a tizzy. His merchandise exploded. Hitting the live streams was epic. We couldn’t wait to see the previous nights results and vlogs. But now, Rampage has become a gambler, and a very bad one at that. While Mariano has been steady, analyzing his play, reading his opponent’s tells, Ethan is getting sloppy. His bullish style doesn’t quite fit with the cards he holds. I wish he’d take a step or two back and put out some quality poker content that we used to relate to. Taking an ‘L’ isn’t a bad thing if your play is on point.

I think the problem is he moved up in stakes thinking that’s what he wanted his fans to see, I’d rather watch someone excel in their respective stakes than get rinsed session after session

If I had that much money to lose playing poker, I wouldn't be playing poker.

He’s a really good dude, so praying for his downfall, is ridiculous. There’s a lot worse out there to root against.

Hold Em is like being in an abusive relationship - You get beaten up BUT You come back for more every time

I know that feeling losing a lot less lol. That feeling of someone tearing your heart out through your asshole.

You should never play a game risking your whole bankroll. Never risk more than 10 to 15%. I never play with other people's money either.

I dont play such high stake, but i know the pains that was on his face. When u are sooo tilted and just couldnt catch any break, it is devastating!! Poker is such a SICK game!!!

"Why WORK when you can play POKER."

Rampage is a stronger tournament player than he is in cash game. That, and he moved up in stakes way too quick in my opinion. Vloggers pick and choose the fascinating plays and high pots they take down when editing. It's much different playing sharks in "real time."

61K the worst call of the century

Great play calling a 3 bet pre with 4 high, a winning strategy obv.

Bad Variance Rampage is a legend Regardless. Master Punter! Bad plays here but also getting caught bluffing when the Villains have a bunch of reasonable made hands to call when he goes nuts. GG!

Rampage: You don't look well. Something is wrong. I don't want to spread rumors or speculate. But I sense something is Wrong. I hope you get it back in order Rampage.

In the first hand when Rampage rivers broadway and the 3rd flush card appears on the river, I disagree with you Alex, there is no reason to raise for value when there are a ton of flush draws in Brandon’s range, and the pot is big enough at that point.

Airball's bank account must be hurting, lol.

Rampage used to sun run. I knew it can’t last forever although it seemed like it could. He used to be the guy with AK on JT8Q vs 9x. He’s a good player but probably with a gambling addiction problem. Needs to play higher and higher. You can see how much stress he’s in now. He needs to take a break. I don’t think he can go broke, there’s too many people who can stake him 😅

If this is true i actually warned him of this. I told him to get back to me in 10 years. He probably has a trust fund. I wouldn't play high stakes at hustler or no where filming.

A case study of what happens when you wanna sit with the cool kids so bad.

This is a poker news channel, not poker vlog anymore.

Rampage facial expression and demeanor tells me he’s not ready for that level.

„is he actually broke, i doubt it” title: rampage poker is broke

If he woulda just stayed at 2-5 5-10 he’s whole RU-vid poker career he would 100% be a multimillionaire

That AJ hand was a total punt, Brandons river sizing was too big to raise, something tourney players never understand. Rampage is too stuck in his tourney grind mindset, a great cash game player would call river based on sizing, but they also barrel turn

LMFAOOOO "SHAME ...SHAMEE...SHAMEE"

The light leaving his eyes on the A7 hand 😂😂😂

Why do I hear the "Comic book guy" from the Simpsons narrating this.

There was nothing wrong with his QTs jam as they were super short stacked. That said, don't play with money you cannot afford to lose. Pretty good call with A7o but I think you probably gotta click call there that short.

that Ace 7 was kinda crazy i woulda thought i got cheated ..ace and 7 on both boards 🤔

Remember most if not all of these guys r no better than ur average 2-5 player. They all got their money other ways not poker

Rampunt 👟🏈 strikes again.

It's more interesting to discuss changes in Nick vpip18 Airball. He has started playing tight. And he started winning.

Xuan Lee was basically e-begging in her last video, crying about losing. The simps in her comment sections, would gladly give her money.

that QTs all in pre for 150k was just degenerate behaviour

6:18 Was that a Key and Peele reference my guy?

Aj shove is a polar mistake. You win a lot when calling and practically lose most of the calls. I don't think a j is calling - we can talk all day long about how having the jd is the worst blocker in the world, but it doesn't really matter - most flush call, most non-flush fold - unless you are nik airball, you can't really get value out of this - very easy call and just a punt for 0 reason. I think all in is much worse than fold, which is pretty insane

Pepe has been off his game lately too. Raymond has been busting him up.

Valuable lesson to recover from. Bottom line, gambling is not good! Losing more than the house you live in!

VIdeo is taken down?

Do they make a live games lower than 1/3? I'd like to meet Rampage at my stakes.

I SAID IT MONTHS AGO ABSOLUTE PUNTER PLAYED BINGO AND GOT LUCKY WINNING WITH HIS BINGO BUT THE PUNTING CAUGHT UP WHICH I KNEW WOULD HAPPEN ALWAYS BLUFFING AND NEVER FOLDING MAKING BAD CALLS

If this dude does end up going broke I don’t feel bad for him. Guy runs great makes a few millions instead of investing it and living off cash flow he decides to gamble it playing high stakes which is way out of his league. Making smart decisions w that kind of money will either make or break you. Having no financial plan in sight will have you right back where you started.

NO WAY ETHAN! NO WAY

Do not feel bad Rampage. Everyone else will be broke before the end of the year as well. :)

why does he need to take a break from losing basically 5 buy-ins? and he was partially staked... so it shouldn't even bother him. he should be back on the tables the next day.

Rampage is kind of Tom Dwan nowadays!! I like him!!

I really respect Nik for folding. I think he knew his buddy Rampage is stuck a house so decided not to absolutely annihilate him.

That A7 call those is ridiculous!!!!

Sometimes you gotta hang it up early. Have a hard limit number you can lose and if you reach it just leave. No matter what you do, some nights are just not your night

Rampage got very, very lucky that the start of his career to begin with. And he just kept playing with the same concepts, which are based on staying lucky. Gus Hansen and Tom Dwan, to an extent, run on similar concepts.

seems lke rampage speech play got him into a lot of trouble

"Luckbox" was an understatement...............It was only a matter of time.

A gambler is always a gambler, enough will never be enough. Sorry for ethan but hope he will learn & come back as will follow and see what how he approaches this next stage of his life.

Rampage found out what happens when the stakes you play at make money mean nothing, until you lose it all.

I've been kind of keeping an eye on his episodes; he makes some great plays (and seems to have an overall great knowledge of the game) BUT and BUT he makes some questionable plays often that risky and he either gets caught or it backfires and that seems to be what kills his bankroll. It prob wouldn't hurt for him to drop back to 1/2, 1/3 or even 2/4 for a while and spend some time studying Jonathan Little for a while and mentor under Daniel Negreanu for a while. I'll keep watching his stuff to pick up bits but wow.

Rampage is a terrible poker player, he is just a luckbox, he doesnt understand the economics of playing with people who have alot more money than he will ever see, these guys arent good either but have so much money they dont give ashit, he will be bust if he isnt already, he has a lot to learn, especially in the cash streets

Half my family is Vietnamese so we know about the gamble time. Rampage will come back to high stakes he just needs to get the money again .

Rampage is horrific…

Don’t ever back anyone….don’t ever Stake anyone. People who gave Rampage money are fools.

Hats off to Raymond, the mad lad

He just bought in the Bally's steam for $100k and won a descent amount a few days ago. He's not back at $1$/3

You win some, you lost some.

Never ever gamble what you cannot afford to lose even if you play good poker.

I watched Rampage for the last 3+ years, from his 2/5 in Boston and knows he is just a good players, not a player who caliber is good enough to play with the big boys. He often got lucky and riverer his card. Often time, he is just a fish in high stakes. He got really luck when he shove all in with just a Ace high on the million dollar game. Hands should have re riase on the turn with his trip QQQ but got scared, thinking Ethan got AK and flopped boardway. Again, if he is smart, stick to tournament and go back to 2/5 where he can actually afford those lost.

The Tournament Style Wont Work long at CAsh

Are you kidding me Nik. You are an absolute dream to have on the table. No longer wearing LV, but now back to a "Fruit of a Loom" T shirt. Rampage will rebound but, you , Nik, I'm sorry to be bashing you, your just a "Donk" I have never seen anyone play poker as bad as you. I'd like to send you Doyle's book, or Phil Hellmuth's book. Let me know where to send it. Shipping on me.

Airball, rampage, and Mariano,who will go broke first?😂

We can agree that it's just poker. He played very well and its just a bad month for him. He's on eof hte better players, but not bad. We can imagine trying to win the loss back up, but I highly doubt that he's broke.

The problem with him is he went on to tv so much and started bluffing majority of the hands. Therefore his opponent will catch on and take him for a ride

As I was saying all the time Ethan was extremely lucky with 0 skills. It came to a stop. I predicted this long ago when he was playing 1-3

most of his buy ins are from backers

Too play this loose (or as others mentioned, "sloppy") with staked $$$ is unacceptable. When any of your action is staked, I believe you should be trying to play your best game. Regardless of whether or not the lions share was his own, he still "gambled" with others $$ who trusted his playing style.

Pepe and Airball are low key nits

The only way you win at poker is playing lowest stakes possible

What happened to Rampage. He plays like he got millions to just throw away, I'm a long time follower 😮

he brought 500k of high society

Well that changed lol tonight on HCL, 3/1/24 - 3/2/24 , Rampage wins about a quarter mil 😂😂

Well today im watching him play live with over 100k. Guess not

Even GOAT like Tom Dwan went broke playing higher stakes than they could afford in long run. Rampage should have slowed down. He looks like someone who lost his monthly mortgage payment so its obvious this is way too much for him.

Flush vs but straight is a cooler ? Thanks for telling .

-500k is like losing a house in san diego

I wanna put this out here for anyone making judgements about the dude. Variance works like this. The best poker players in the world will have sessions like this and it is part of being a pro. The only problem here is bankroll management

Don't like how Rampage always calls himself your boy. Too homosexual for my liking.

That is why you only play with a small % of you BR.

isnt rampage the guy who was studying in uni and playing poker just for 100 dollars or such trying to become big few years ago? now hes playing for hundreads of thousands, if hes career is over atleast thats incredible story to tell if nothing else.

Hard to relate to poker vloggers when there playing biggest games they can find. Players like brad and andrew are relatable. I dont watch ramp anymore tbh

Who didn't see this coming the downfall of Rampage? And Mariano will follow suit quickly. That's no rocket science either. So predictable with their ego's, playing styles, stakes they play in and game selection. RIP bankroll.

Nik had to have misread the cards. There's no nit alive that could fold that hand

When nik airball folded the A7hearts to rampages KK when the backdoor flush hit kik wasnt worried about thr flush even though it was possible there was a very simple hand that beat his 7 and the would be 78 cause it flopped the open ended str8 draw that hit on the turn so nik thought he was beat from the turn on cause if rampage had 78 which is easily in his range he thought he was beat.

From close to the beginning I saw this coming. The sad part is, it can get even WAY WORSE. When I saw you were making a video on it, I was halfway expecting(hoping) you to talk about his gambling addiction itself, but I guess those caught up in this for a living dont want to really talk about that. He needs help big time...and i dont mean a GD poker coach. We are past that.😢

Finally he’s luck is running out. Literally the biggest lockbox I’ve ever seen in poker.

No bankroll? It’s so simple, consider how great you played with a small stack those times and came roaring back. A small bankroll can also be a huge plus in a weird way and after playing for 26 years this isn’t just some dumb take. Wow gee if you have a massive bankroll it’s better???? Nooooo wayyyyyy dude you a poker genius

Raymond disrespect Rampage by touching his cards and flipping it over, i would of been pissed

He also started playing really arrogant once he reached high stakes thus abandoning his game....when u try to emulate high stakes player u neither become them n u lose urself....same goes in life

but but but skill!?!?!

Rampage is a good player but need to work on his aggression
