Rampage, you need to seriously reset. Get your ego in check. Contact Tommy Angelo and get coaching. He's going to help your MIND and benefit your game immensely if you listen and learn. This comes from the years of experience longer than you've been alive. And believe me, some massively larger stakes players than you have used him after already reaching nosebleed stakes.

The problem with over-aggressive players is that at start of their career they can hit a good run of luck and think their strategy is sound. When the luck turns they always find out the truth.

I mean at some points it's almost like an interrogation and it's awesome. Second I would like to say that this is some of the best content for poker players. And thirdly I just want to say thanks to Nick (and Valerie) for putting do much in to a show that may or may not pan out! Keep fighting! People will eventually see your show and watch it.

He is an extremely likable guy...love watching his videos...he takes his wins and his losses in stride...very positive guy...👍🏽

So he wins almost $1 million in a tournament. Then gives his money to a "friend" that scams him. The IRS still wants the taxes on that million. There's not a box on your tax form that says "I gave the money to a friend that scammed me". Hope he doesn't end up in trouble.

Nick does ask the questions people want to hear.

I don't know how people back Rampage in cash games with his playing style. He has the right mentality, seeing poker chips as chips and not money, but that doesn't mean just punt it away with loose and bad play. Dude is living every poker players dream, and he might blow it soon. Sad really. And I've been a fan of his since the first few vlogs he did.

A very high quality guest. Nick was prepared with good questions. Lady interviewer is not great at this, but I am sure she will improve.

Ethan is a great person. Tons of heart. He is taking shots in positions that are absolutely wrong. He took years building bank and still has that old mentality after getting that 7 figures. Having the capability of crowd backing is completely different than having the capability of a million or more of my own cash. I play 21 with massive bank and have the big swings. I like HCL but Ethan should play nose bleeds elsewhere for the time being then return to HCL. He is a very worthy investment.

Much love to Rampage

I learned how to play poker in Jail. I played against others and had 6 bunks by the end of the night, but then cops called lights out…..

This felt like a psychologist session

Rampage isn't going broke as long as he got his poker club pumping money in.

What is with the Mat Berkey poster? 🤣😂

Awesome Stream

Rampage is still young and knows what he is doing. I personally feel he knows how much he can afford to lose. His aggressive tendencies game took him to poker stardom, how could any of us tell him different. I personally feel he is capable, he made some mistakes, and forced a few hands that cost him, but he will get it back. I have no idea how he felt for that scam. He needs to find someone to manage his money and keep him on a straight line. I mean all these poker legends have said, they went broke in poker at the beginning and he is not broke, enough time to steer the ship. Facts
