I can't make heads or tales of him. Came out of nowhere. Claims to be a professional blackjack player but I've seen many mistakes in some videos and in some of his advice. He's live right now and you can watch here:

He's a total idiot. He went to prison for a while for bank robbery (according to him). Also a video of him supposedly burning $10k cash. A few videos of him playing live at a casino and making a mockery of himself when getting backed off (just watch, he's saying sh** like "the count's +4, everyone bet more!"). Bit of chatter about his videos on BJTF, he signed up, argued with everyone, then started making alternate accounts (sock puppets) praising him then he got banned and a few recent videos include him talking sh** on BJTF members.

Have you ever burnt more then 10k in cash?
Have you ever won tons of money like this guy?

It was interesting to watch through his spy glasses
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-9-AjalKdE
23:20 gets told no action
at 29:10 he claims to have turned 35k into 200k in one night
Maybe he did, but he counted, played and outed himself like a complete jerk.
I begrudge him the publicity, but the vids do have some entertainment value. Ignore his advice though

To be fair, that is a genuine problem with those.Quote: rainmanHow come his spy glasses are always dead when he is laying out the big action?
What's more in question is why he feels it's a great idea to shove out $350 a hand in modest, or even nonexistent counts just because he's now 'playing with house money' Also in some of his rubbishy vids he's playing online live table blackjack, which is certainly not at all countable the way he does it... But he still mumbles about count while acknowledging it has no value.
So far, what I see most is a guy promoting his website, which he hopes to monetise. Any betting action that he shows is just a publicity stunt.
Amazed his monster sized camera specs were not instantly recognised as such.

I missed all that but went and read it (not a member of bjtf). Pretty funny stuff. I had stumbled onto one of his videos a few weeks ago while watching some poker vlog videos. I didn't watch much of it because he was berating a player for not following basic strategy (watch him play and you'll quickly learn he doesn't follow it either!). Maybe he learned his shtick from Rob Singer. :-) It'll be quite interesting to see how this "army of counters" will pan out. Especially when these novices learn the harsh realities of bj card counting.

I just watched a couple of his videos. The guy is a fricken trip! Although he is entertaining, he is delusional and operates in his own world. If he really has 165 new subscribers, it just goes to show how many people out there will try anything for the hope to win in gambling.
This guys is like the vegasdave of bj.. he brags and posts fake winnings (those stacks of 10k are probably filled with singles, just like in vegasdave's photo where he got busted by a viewer... and there are suckers who are so desperate that they will pay for a subscription for hope in a jar.
However, if you want good entertainment and want to see how not to raise your kids, watch his videos. ha

They sell fake 10k stacks as props online... It is not difficult to show stacks like this. Take a look at the vegasdave post on here. There was a pic of vegasdave showing all of these 10k stacks in front of him as he bragged about how much money he had. Some sharp viewer zoomed in and showed that there were 1 dollar bills inside the stacks...not all 100s as he tried to convey. Lots of scammers out there..

Watch when he supposedly burns 10k. It is dark outside of course. He never spreads out any of the bills. He hold the 10k stack in a funny way, almost like a wonky card mechanic grip. He barely flips through the bills, even then its dark out. IIRC there is not a continuous shot from showing the "10k stack" to burning it. You can't tell what denomination of bills he is tossing in the fire.
If he did burn 10k, I think that is illegal. It doesn't seem smart to record yourself doing that and then post the video online, especially when you are already an ex-con.
If all the stacks of cash are legit (notice he never fanns the bills out or anything) Who knows where he got the cash. Someone with cash could be involved with him. Who knows, perhaps he saved money from illegal activity.
I love when he talks to dealer's with his leading questions. "Hey, remember when I made that 60k...blah blah blah. What's the dealer going to say? They are just going to go along with whatever He says.

14:55 the dealer very clearly deals a second and wins the hand. Feels back of card in shoe. Pushes it up and draws the card below it.

I will say that I don't know if those next two cards were known before being dealt. But it's absolutely clear that the dealer INTENTIONALLY flicks the top card up (an 8) and deals the second to Michael on his double (6 onto a 9,2) then gives himself the card that was flicked up (the 8 onto his K up for 18). Also, Michael closed that table out before we can see the card after to see if the dealer would have busted the 16 he was supposed to have.

The bond is only the fee, 10% of what is owed if he doesn't come back. I really don't get it completely, but maybe the bondsman doesn't think he'll make money if he doesn't show to court. Bad risk essentially, they want someone to cover searching for him and bringing him back. $5,000 is a pretty hefty bond. What good ever came out of Arkansas anyways.

His entire bond was $5,000. Which if he pays with his own cash he gets back at the end of his required court appearances. If he needs to pay a bondsman its usually like 10-15% of the entire bond he has to pay as bond premium. You don't get your bond premium back because its what the bondsman charge for use of their services.

I see that on his own forum there is a thread about him getting arrested for causing a disturbance in a casino. To find himself actually locked up over something so trivial is odd and pretty amusing.

Strange guy. He started posting at BJTF. Then another guy started posting that he was a customer of his and how fantastic he was. Then three more guys started posting. All had the same IP. I closed all five memberships as that’s a violation, and clearly scammy. Next day the obscene phone calls started. Ten in all, screaming unintelligibly. I couldn’t understand most of what was said, except for one four letter word that appears to be his favorite. I posted about the calls. The obscene calls stopped, but then the hang-up calls started. Always with the same background noise. They continued for about three weeks. Then, couple weeks ago, they abruptly stopped. Wonder why.:)
