Just wondering all y’all opinion on what you think of Vegas Matt’s content strategy. He’s lost over 400k this year alone, I assume it must be a result of bad variance but still can he recover from this to make the channel profitable? Do you think the ‘Get even, or get even worse’ strategy is too volatile for a slot channel that might be demonetized in years to come? Curious to hear your thoughts, opinions, ideas on this. I simply only follow him for the win/loss tally or the $500+ spins at this point.

Make the channel profitable? The revenue he makes from his channel probably exceeds his losses alone. On top of that, doesn't he have partnerships with sports betting companies and online casinos? He's effectively created an entire brand of this, he's a celebrity in the gambling sphere. It doesn't matter if his channel gets demonetized in future years.


I also wouldn't be surprised if casinos are just compensating for his losses somehow as well.

My local casino has invited him to give a talk. I’m sure he is getting paid nicely. I think I’ll pass.

YouTube and Spotify will be demanding ID's for age identification starting August 13th, 2025. Let's see if that kills off the internet.

There's new US laws coming out and new international laws coming out and it's forcing YouTube to demand ID, or they will use their all-knowing AI to determine if you are over 18. Gambling videos are not kid videos. This is a developing story. Makes me wonder if this website will have to go behind a paywall. If they are trying to make the internet kid-friendly, they are going to shut down the vast majority of the internet.

I would not recommend giving ID to Google or any Google property such as YouTube. Post your stuff on Rumble. Nice clean interface, no digital mess or invasive practices.

Then create some content there! Then there will be at least one you like. (Or maybe not, who knows?)

Sadly, Google got my docs back when they were feigning commitment to the "don't be evil" motto. They don't forget things, and migration would be a pain.

I haven't found a satisfactory alternative.
May the cards fall in your favor.

The only part I feel jammed by is they've increased the service charges because of the Gemini rollout. I don't use it, I can't disable it, I can't opt out of paying for it.

I really need to check how much it bumped the bill. I can only imagine people will scream if pricing quadrupled with no chance to avoid it.
May the cards fall in your favor.

I don’t follow any of them but the Vegas Paulie “Well hello hello hello!” sticks in the mind.

John Cerasani is all over FB (and I do not mean Fontainebleau) but his content seems to consist mostly of grim faced attempts to dig himself out of a hole playing blackjack. That sort of thing is tiring to me. He has tried to spice it up with a somewhat cute busty companion or two.

I honestly read,"5.7 million as ," YouTube revenue is 5.7 million DOLLARS at first and I thought,"That's actually REALLY good money to be getting from YouTube for doing something he enjoys doing anyways!" 😀 and then I saw the part where he says his YouTube revenue is actually always way low and I saw ,"5.7 million HOURS, and it's not REVENUE and I thought,"Yikes!" 😬

Lady Luck said something like," Miran and I play high because we can afford to because Miran and I have REALLY high paying Careers and can afford to lose big money. We lose more money than we win. Don't let the constant $10,000 spins and $100,000 wins make you think we get our big money from gambling and making Slot videos on YouTube. Most of our money comes from our successful Careers, not from gambling and making Slot videos on YouTube."

I thought that was a REALLY refreshing thing for her to say that she and Miran actually lose more than they win and the bulk of their money comes from their successful Careers and not from gambling and making Slot videos on YouTube, 😀💡 but I later learned that they quit their successful Careers to be full time Gamblers! 🤦‍♀️ They should have kept the successful Careers and kept the gambling and making Slot videos as a hobby! 💡

“People give estimates of what they think we’re making, and it’s always way low” means that he makes a lot more than what people think.

Vegas Matt’s losses sound unentertainingly low compared to Adnin Ross’. Perhaps he loses in an entertaining manner?

For that matter how many views would an MDawg baccarat video where I dump a quarter mill get? Versus where I win a couple hundred thousand?

The allure of easy YT revenue and the spotlight will mess with anyone's heads! Even someone who worked hard in a reputable field their whole life couldn't resist the idea of literally playing games for 6 figures a month! Imagine how bad it is for compulsive gamblers? Just look at Victor and Slot Lady Sara and how far they've fallen!

I'd like to see micro-markets (prediction markets with short duration events) when they start a live stream. $100 Huff N Puff, will the next bonus be a buzzsaw bonus? Golden buzzsaw? Diamond Buzzsaw? Hard Hats bonus? A howl bonus? Prediction market for that. Expires at bonus trigger.
If it's a wheel bonus, a market to bet on which wedge. When the bonus plays out, bet on how many straw, wood, gold, platinum mansions will land. Bet on the number of units the bonus will pay. Bet on the number of retriggers the bonus will have. Bet on "back to back" bonuses occurring within 10 spins of each other.

This concept would need coordination with the streamer because they have to slow down play to let markets get bids. But I can see this working with Vegas Matt and crew because his co-streamers would be in there gambling on these markets with the viewers. The haters can bet against them. Someone willing to track all these events with AI could have an edge in their bets. Something like a 4 hour Thursday night event.
