Slotlady Channel
Quote: ThisIsMyJamI just watched Slot Lady's latest video where she addresses accusations made about her in another YouTuber's video. I hadn't seen anything about it but her drawing attention to it makes me want to check it out. Anyone know whose video she's referring to?

Quote: LCK2000EZ Life Slot Jackpot. It's a good one imo, exposes what a lot of people already knew about her. She didn't even address some of the things in her video EZ brought up, like how she lied to her fans about who Jenny is, she lied about changing to All Casino Action to "features smaller content creators", etc.

Yeah, the three videos seem to have become the juicy gossip of the gambling community. I thought of posting them but, as I think Slotlady is still considered an active member here, won't. (If interested, they're easy to find.) Essentially EZ Life posted a video trying to dig up answers to the "What happened to the Slotlady channel?" question. He ended it by drawing some unflattering conclusions. In response, an obviously annoyed Slotlady Sarah posted a video denying those conclusions. EZ then posted a response to the response that drew more unflattering conclusions.
It's all kind of fun in a Page Six sort of way but, ultimately, it's little more than two YouTube channels bickering. The accusations couldn't be more nickle and dime. Was Victor part of the channel from the beginning? Who cares? Who's the real owner of the channel? Who cares? Was Victor Jenny? Who cares? Does Sarah use her good looks to get clicks? Don't all the pretty girls on YouTube do that? It's really just a good example of how fame, even at the minor YouTube celebrity level, has a downside. Still, business for the new "All Casino Action" channel seems to have taken a turn for the worse.
Here is a recent (02-03-22) video interview of Victor and Sarah by the guys at American Casino Guide, a channel the Wizard himself has often appeared on. Although it doesn't address the elephant in the room (assuming Matt and Steve even know or care about it), the folks following the spicy Slotlady saga have been analyzing it, attempting to read between the lines...
Although she stated in her response video she wouldn't be discussing the matter anymore, Sarah did respond to some rude comments (including one by EZ) in this video's comment section...

How do these numbers hold up now that it’s become the “watch Vic whine like a little baby” channel?
I unsubscribed ages ago but last night’s stream just happened to come up in my suggestions. Unwatchable. Dude is like nails on a chalkboard when he loses.
I don't mind Vic. I like when he explains games and his plays and holds but I have to admit he has made some mistakes.
While I think his knowledge is a contribution he has a lot to learn about being a YouTube personality. Namely don't criticize your viewers. Your viewers are your customers. Appreciate them. Thank them. Welcome them. Dont criticize them.
Victor has criticized some viewers. He lost points and probably lost viewers -- his customers.
But, he'll learn.

Yeah, that stream last night was painful to watch and listen to. Yup, he had a bad session, but boy was he miserable.
Quote: TDVegasHaven’t watched her in a while. No clue why she dumped her previous format. She could have invested very little time to learn the nuances of video poker. Her entire schtick was playing up the “kewpie doll” appearance and appealing to her male subscribers. She brings in her boyfriend to increase viewership? LOL.

It was a marketing blunder.

I definitely believe the theory that Vic has always been running things behind the scenes and Sarah is kind of over the whole gambling thing. Hence the transition.

It’s entirely possible. Maybe she hates gambling and for her it was simply a job that utilized what he didn’t have…sex appeal. Viewership.
Some of her videos where she was explaining herself to fans were so morose and depressing. Disinterest.
This guy is probably her boyfriend. They came up with a plan. Yeah, maybe she did tire of it all. This was the alternative to shutting it down completely. She’s quick to deny or confirm everything else…when asked directly if Vic is her boyfriend, she ignored the question. Telling. It doesn’t matter, but her main selling point to her fans was attractive and single, IMO.….LOL.

That’s my take as well.
But professionally "Slotlady" was an established brand. They could have added Victor's play under the Slotlady brand. There was no need to come up with the name All Casino Action.
It just as easily could have been "Victor playing video poker on the Slotlady channel."
Quote: AlanMendelsonI am not going to comment on anyone's personal life because it's not appropriate. Frankly the two of them are younger than my own kids.

She says he was always a part of the channel and was always accompanying her on trips. I never knew she had a sidekick of sorts until she made a video with him and admitted he was “always” a part of the channel.
I had always thought she was on her own. Her channel. Her content. Her choices. Her Patreon. Played and traveled alone.
Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know... she seems really nice so good for her for getting as successful as she has.
Quote: Roberto21I have always felt SlotLady lacks personality and charisma, and I might as well be watching a robot play slots.

Do you have a link to the SlotRobot?
I actually would find it interesting.
Quote: Roberto21Haha there’s actually quite a few ‘bots’ playing slots 24/7 on Twitch in the ‘Slots’ category. A funky Siberian Tiger playing electronic dance music comes to mind 😆 Each to their own though!!

Unfortunately, I make a distinction between online slot games and slot machines.
The channels I saw seemed to be the former, and not suitable fodder for my addled mind seeking confirmation bias of discernable patterns in a sea of noise.
Thanks!
Quote: rxwineShe could have just quit because, the more viewers one gets, the more there can be issues with trolls, stalkers and similar. You have to be able to deal with that. And if you can't there's not much you can do except quit.

Some months ago I exchanged emails with her about this. You might say I'm an expert at dealing with trolls, partly because of my experience at a certain craps session. But also from TV. I once had LAPD protection when I was being stalked and threatened. It's not fun.
But I grew up with it. After all my father was a mob lawyer. And the stories I could tell....

Her viewership definitely tilted toward guys who wanted to “buy her a drink”. A lot of the commentary she received was cringeworthy. She was pretty good about sloughing it off…but it’s possible it got to her. I’m guessing with her partner there that she didn’t have too many “in person” problems, but you never know.
Look at the end of this video... the last five minutes will do.

He goes from a profit... to saying over and over "this is the last hand"... to finally losing $1400.
Several questions:
When is the last hand? Or, is he exempt from promising "this is the last hand" because there is a minimum YouTube time that must be produced to qualify for certain YouTube benefits?
This could be the last time

Totally undisciplined. “Last hand”…was it 6-7 hands later?
I regard a push after 45 minutes a win. He turned it into a 5 minute $1,400 loss.
Casinos feast on guys like this. I don’t believe you tube has any minimum time requirement.
Last hand is last hand.
Quote: avianrandyKelli's husband on beyond blackjack channel says after 2 pushes in a row playing blackjack,you should bet the farm. Anyone ever tried Jamie's(Kelli's husbands) advice?

I think I heard her say that it's bad luck to count your chips, so a grain of salt, wedge of lime, and shot of tequila may go with her advice.
What would be the reasoning behind such a bizarre statement?
I think any effects may be emotional, not mathematical.
update: I played a blackjack app until I got two pushes in a row. I increased my bet from 10k chips to 1M chips on the next hand. I lost the big bet.
I expect I did something to disturb the Sacred Flow of the Cards.
I don't think I need to do more research on the matter.

This has always been one of the oddest and dumbest gambling luck beliefs ever.
Usually luck things are completely harmless, like wear red, carry a lucky charm, don't sit in a certain seat, etc., but not knowing how much money you have in front of you when you're gambling is incredibly stupid and a recipe for disaster.

I'm sure the surge in slot channels is spreading even more absurd ideas.
8.2% better chance of getting a jackpot with the volume up? Rub the screen in a certain way? Must celebrate certain wins by pretending to ride a pony to have a profitable session?
If any snake oil believers need a pocket sized lucky rubber duck* from my collection to better their chances, I'll try to accommodate.
Online duck orders not accepted.
I've tried another progression extensively, but I'd go through too many sessions before a winning one, it's too leaky. So I've newly settled on this one above. My Roku 3 BJ game seems totally rigged so I don't know how my strategy will fare at a real card table. I could watch BJ videos on YouTube and play along on my calculator. But one hour videos may be too short for my purposes. Vic doesn't bet with any system, so how he fares has no relation to how I'd end up.
I've had sessions end (broke) in 30 hands, 100 hands (win or lose), or I could have a wild upswing only to come crashing down after 600+ hands. I play for win goals and one hour time limits don't allow that for the most part.
John's World of Video Poker is a new one. Basically it's good because the guy discusses proper holds in Bonus poker. It's like a refresher course as he describes the proper holds and the errors with alternative holds.
But he has his voodoo moments talking about finding hot machines.

In poker I think counting your chips is considered a tell: a signal to other players that you're concerned.
Big stacks dont worry and dont bother counting their chips -- because they're the big stack.
I'm going to suggest that following other superstitions in poker are tells also.
Poker is a game where you want to fool the other players. I recall a hand where I held a full house asking "how many spades are out there?" (There were only two, and I wanted the others to think I was on a flush draw.)

John is trying to explain plays as he goes along. But time is short and he ends up playing way to fast for newer players to follow. At least he is not playing the carnival games of VP like so many of them.
The funds needed to play @$10 coin goes out the window if time is short and he's looking for a big score.....

So I guess the trick is to either never count your chips or count them constantly.

Think cash game, not tournament.
The dealer's tray can safely be assumed to be "the big stack" at any house banked game, and they can reload as needed.

Well you're right. In a cash game players can keep buying more chips.
But smart poker players know that at any point you can take your big stack off the table and go home.
And that's exactly what many do after winning a monster pot... leave.
