Bankroll management is an underated skill.
Other than skill for the game, It is the most important skill a gambler should have.
As a whole, I'd lay dimes to donuts br mgmt is a wholly dismissed skill for some large percentage of the general poker community (as in, well north of 50 percent). And for the minority that give it its due, well north of 75 percent have engaged in violative behavior more than once. Shot-taking is a helluva drug.💉
I totally agree. I made this mistake years and years even though i was a good player back then.. But nowadays, i think its probably the most important thing in poker.
Yep this is exactly what happens when you don’t follow the rules of bankroll management. Nvr play in games that can kill your roll.
It’s the most underrate skill, requires 3rd grade math but the discipline of a Shaolin monk. Even if you’re a slight winner with proper BRM you’ll never die.
Back to driving the trucks for Gnish again.
🤣
Thats Knish
Where he clearly belongs.
Also, who's dumb enough to stake this guy?
Rampage: “I need 15 thousand dollars”
Knish: “I need a bj from Christy turlington”
Ol Mister Knish!!!!
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.
You’re not lying. There’s no such thing as giving money back in poker.
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
David Kaye wins a ton at 1/2....refused to go up in Steaks and his explanation makes a lot of sense. He streams on u tube.
You have obviously not seen his success in the last year then, he has one tons of tournaments and already has a few rings... i would aregue given the amount of time he has been playing poker there havent been to many people like him. He has a very successful merchandise company, successful youtube and won a couple million playing poker... what the hell are you talking about
@@Vele1267 he lost 600k last year. Define success
@@Vele1267 you only see what rampage wants you to see....grow up boy.
@@Vele1267 You are confusing tournaments with cash games - the high stakes cash games are very different animal than the tournaments out there - how many high stakes tournament players do you see play high stakes cash on the regular basis? Not many...
That Q of diamonds was the poker gods saying "go back to 1/3"
Yeah no kidding. in order to play these stakes I think you need at least 2 mil cash
@@scotjaras6203 Anyone you see playing after a couple years in these livestreams is not playing with their own money. Where is poker 'god' Gus Hansen? Broke ass broke. Watching these guys at the 1M game dropping a million like nothing and laughing. It's not their money.
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.
Everyone makes mistakes
Yes, I think his bullish style serves him better in tournaments. People in cash games seem tougher to bluff.
Especially in these big games against players who are wealthy and can afford to call off with mediocre holdings.
Thats exactly right. You arent going to run over these players. Having casual high rollers on really gets those bluffs called down fast.@@JT-gi8rx
But Mariano was also in great downswing in the recent months. I would assume he is still red up to the moment based on HCL live streams.
Alcohol is his nemesis.
If I had that much money to lose playing poker, I wouldn't be playing poker.
He's losing his fan's donated money and his corporate bankroll
@@SortOfEggishin the end screenshot he says he had a large majority of himself. Could have lost anywhere likely between 250-400k
That’s why no one will remember your name
@@thetruth2599 I don't seek fame or remembrance from random degenerates. If you do more power to you. I'll take my money and be fine being an unknown to you peasants.
Same, I guess that's why people like us could never go from micro to highstakes.
He’s a really good dude, so praying for his downfall, is ridiculous. There’s a lot worse out there to root against.
Yes people will root for you on the way up, but hate you when you actually get there. Alex Hormozi talks about this when he was building his gym business.
He makes a killing on the poker app, he's fine
I know that feeling losing a lot less lol. That feeling of someone tearing your heart out through your asshole.
Lol
Than trying to squeeze it back through!
Hold Em is like being in an abusive relationship - You get beaten up BUT You come back for more every time
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.
Even 10 -15% is very aggressive, I would say 5% is already aggro but acceptable.
The only time 10-15% is good is only if there is no games at lower stakes and higher than your current stakes, and if it is a super soft table. HCL seems to have games at stakes just lower with 40k buyin so playing that would make more sense to play for Rampage if indeed 500k is alot to him.
Can be smart to get staked to move up fadter
@@maheshpun4804fr your due to go broke everntually playing that much of your bankroll. No matter how good you are you are going to go on downswings
It is easier said than done. So hard to pull back sometimes, especially when u are soo tilted. Gamblers know what i mean
I'm not a gambler I'm a poker player.. I've know lots of great poker players who have gone broke because they can't stay out of pit or sportsbook.@@yongdeng1813
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!!!
Only devastating if you are stupid and playing the wrong stakes.
I don't get why he would put his whole roll in the game like that, doesn't make sense he knows better, why? And yes I understand the tilt I've been there several times your so tilted you can't think straight. It's an evil game that has distroyed people's lives.
I think a person could carve out a decent life playing good at 2/5 and 5/10. It's all about clout after that unless you can really stand million dollar swings.
@@repent.sinner Me neither I predicted this last year.Extremely reckless.He should have bought a condo and or house at least and rented it or bought a couple and played with the rest.
That passive income and worth of the condo and or house in 10 20 or 30 years woulda been amazing to have.
Also it's easier to lose when it's not everything.Don't think he's any further ahead than when he was play 1-3....blew it all....for what?All that stress...hardache...travel time...work and you didn't put a half milly or 250k away.
Sorry no sympathy!
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.
Not to mention Brandon bets 75% pot on the river, repping a flush or straight.
I understand why many people would just call. But I don’t think it’s a punt
Alex is dead wrong !
@@jamesguest4741 :(
what is AJo getting value from? a lower straight?
it's gonna be a tough call from a lower straight with that bet-sizing and he's got quite some flushes in his range.
what other hands is he getting value from? sets and lower ain't calling that at any moderate frequency.
this play makes no sense to me.
"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."
Idk he did put out 3 vids a week at one time so he had to have been showing lots of mistakes too right?
@@AlexDuvallNope. I was one of Rampages first 1000 subscribers. He's shown nothing but how to sun run and cooler dudes.
@@vamoneygroupwell, coolering people is probably the best strategy to win. So we can't fault him for picking that strategy. /s
He is a pretty good player, but challenging a whale like that with the " my net worth is bigger" line was a terrible move.
I would say it would be a fantastic move if he was all in with the near nuts, because you just attacked that guy's ego and he will call to prove you wrong.
Maybe the straight was the near nuts, idk, i would have done that with the J high flush or better, personally.
Great play calling a 3 bet pre with 4 high, a winning strategy obv.
61K the worst call of the century
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!
If he woulda just stayed at 2-5 5-10 he’s whole UA-cam poker career he would 100% be a multimillionaire
He is a millionaire
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.
I told him to buy real estate 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
I told him to buy Bitcoin 10 yrs ago 😂
he won one big tournament and thought he was the shit. he had early success but sometimes it doesn't last. Invest in artichokes.@@ionisius

His trust fund is fleecing his followers with app games/clubgg
A case study of what happens when you wanna sit with the cool kids so bad.
Yea i dont get people like this tbh. Why would you take a skill like poker where the objective is money, and CHOOSE to play the highest level of competition? Its just silly. Its like chapter 1 of every poker book: Choose games wisely.
This is a poker news channel, not poker vlog anymore.
And it’s great.
Lol why can’t it be both? Working on vlogs
@AlexDuvall
It’s yours channel. yes you can have both, however lately it like more news than poker vlog. I love your poker vlog and I just want to see more of your poker journey daily grinds.
@@jodankeep6031 ok I will have some soon
Its more click bait than news.
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 😅
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.
He probably owes some very violent people a lot of money. How many of them go. If ya know , ya know 😉
It’s all the stress
The light leaving his eyes on the A7 hand 😂😂😂
Airball's bank account must be hurting, lol.
Rampunt 👟🏈 strikes again.
LMFAOOOO "SHAME ...SHAMEE...SHAMEE"
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
Do they make a live games lower than 1/3? I'd like to meet Rampage at my stakes.
In the US? 1/2 lol
„is he actually broke, i doubt it”
title: rampage poker is broke
You got me
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.
160k is super short stacked? He was rebuying after being felted for 200k... what world is preflop raising to 160k normal? Even at these stakes that ridiculous to try and steal the straddle.
Why do I hear the "Comic book guy" from the Simpsons narrating this.
that Ace 7 was kinda crazy i woulda thought i got cheated ..ace and 7 on both boards 🤔
Rampage facial expression and demeanor tells me he’s not ready for that level.
The truth is that 95% of Gambles go broke. It does not matter how good you are.
NO WAY ETHAN! NO WAY
that QTs all in pre for 150k was just degenerate behaviour
A7 raymond call was more degenerate tbh
@@happybear3110 yeah but that s a multi millionaire if I m not mistaken, he afford to gamble like that. Rampage put himself in that position, I mean it had no sense to go all in pre 150k with qts
That A7 call those is ridiculous!!!!
Standard actually
It's more interesting to discuss changes in Nick vpip18 Airball. He has started playing tight. And he started winning.
He just stopped playing like a jackzz .That happens when you lose most of your money(speculating obviously)He can't have endless means and doesn't investment bank anymore so...there is a bottom...Tightening up may be an indication of it coming as he doesn't enjoy it as much.Enjoys more the calling station clown thing more I think.
and you think. tight playing can win in poker ?
@@garret6596 yes tight play wins if you also only play premium hands... you just wont win alot per session... i know a few retired guys who play like this in a casino poker room and i see them winning majority of the time
@@garret6596 it's not tight..it's 1 cent 2 cent God awful stupidity.....there is a difference.
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.
You think thing don't go on that we don't hear about....
lol, he's just lost all his money, all of it...
@@dantrav1927 you telling me he was playing a poker session with his entire bankroll? that's nuts
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
Xuan Lee was basically e-begging in her last video, crying about losing. The simps in her comment sections, would gladly give her money.
I really respect Nik for folding. I think he knew his buddy Rampage is stuck a house so decided not to absolutely annihilate him.
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
Rampage is kind of Tom Dwan nowadays!! I like him!!
👊👊👊
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.
Valuable lesson to recover from. Bottom line, gambling is not good! Losing more than the house you live in!
There is nothing inherently wrong with gambling, per se. What is wrong is thinking that playing for ridiculous amounts of money makes one smarter or better at gambling. I've been saying for years that these types of games do more harm than good to the game overall as small stakes, recreational players are what made the Moneymaker Poker Boom happen. Since 2009, Las Vegas has lost around 60-70% of the tables.
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
Yep
Some got the money running shady underground online poker groups
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
Pepe has been off his game lately too. Raymond has been busting him up.
VIdeo is taken down?
Which one? No?
Plays now dude, just buggy UA-cam I think,
seems lke rampage speech play got him into a lot of trouble
6:18 Was that a Key and Peele reference my guy?
Rampage is horrific…
Don’t ever back anyone….don’t ever Stake anyone. People who gave Rampage money are fools.
Rampage found out what happens when the stakes you play at make money mean nothing, until you lose it all.
Do not feel bad Rampage. Everyone else will be broke before the end of the year as well. :)
The only way you win at poker is playing lowest stakes possible
Hats off to Raymond, the mad lad
-500k is like losing a house in san diego
No, that's losing a condo and not a house. I live in San Diego 5 miles from downtown and it's expensive in the ghetto. Lol
@life-pm5xl I live in San diego too...
@@life-pm5xl😂😂😂
Raymond disrespect Rampage by touching his cards and flipping it over, i would of been pissed
You win some, you lost some.
"Luckbox" was an understatement...............It was only a matter of time.
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
Never ever gamble what you cannot afford to lose even if you play good poker.
Lmao don’t matter how good ur are… and ppl think it’s cool being like broke or rich…”it’s not”
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
Oof… back to satty tournaments
most of his buy ins are from backers
I guess the last $500k was his own from the video....ouch!
he brought 500k of high society
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.
Flush vs but straight is a cooler ? Thanks for telling .
It was the nut straight tho!
but but but skill!?!?!
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 .
Just like a drunk, you'll find them at a liquor store or the bar.
Why he is Vietnamese descents
I think Chinese
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.
The Tournament Style Wont Work long at CAsh
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
Do you consider yourself a better player than him?
He has turned a 'luckbox' persona into huge profits
He had a losing tournament year, even though he won a few tourneys, he gad a massive losing year on cash games, he is way to lose, a joke , very poor overplays, he will go busto if he doesnt learn and develop, being brave and aggressive just gets you broke@@AlexDuvall
@AlexDuvall so what when you're gambling it all away. A mm who is doing financially well doesn't post what he posted before playing this game. And his persona was different than what its been in the past when losing big. He seemed calm and accepting "fate" instead of angry like he has been. It's almost like he is finally facing reality that he needs help.
@@tombeh or he has more money than you think and it’s not actually as bad as it seems
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
It was a nice run.
Airball, rampage, and Mariano,who will go broke first?😂
Airball with his new style might not go broke
All of em tbh.
Pepe and Airball are low key nits
That is why you only play with a small % of you BR.
This is 🔑
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.
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.
Playing 5% of yiur bankroll is a widely known rule if you want to be a profitable player in the long run. On top of that Rampage punts far too often and players have figured him out. A sad inevitable conclusion to his story
He's not broke
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
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.
im thinking rampage and airball were colluding
Yep. And it was as obvious as anything there in that spot when he lays down the straight.
Highly unlikely
Nah Airball has just totally changed his play style for the sake of fans liking him. It is not working. I will release video on this soon.
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.
Well today im watching him play live with over 100k. Guess not
Nik had to have misread the cards. There's no nit alive that could fold that hand
What happened to Rampage. He plays like he got millions to just throw away, I'm a long time follower 😮
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.
If 85% of the poker population are losing players, then at any table there can’t be more than 2 winners on average.
Yes that also includes the people commenting who magically come out of the woodwork and want to make their claim on expertise.
Most of those guys on this table would lose in your average 1/3 table vs regulars.
Weird behavior. The dude is just playing his game he coulda easily won why does everyone hate on this dude his life is a fking movie
Rampage is a good player but need to work on his aggression
Aggression = GTO
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
You do know he's not broke, right?
