[@guangliu8056]

Looking at your recent content vs your older content (or even Mariano’s). There’s been a big shift in your narrative. In the past, you focused more on opponents’ ranges, what can you realistically beat, equity in a hand, and sprinkled in a hero call here and there. Versus your content now, it’s been “I’m down a lot of money, so I gotta go for it”. I think if you start playing the same way that made your channel really popular, you’ll start making money in your million dollar challenge (slowly, but surely. Good luck Ethan!

[@Nikkithedog-t6b]

There's a couple problems, most of us learn to play with experience and since Ethan got the horseshoe up there early by getting a chance to play over his experience with merch and KZbin income he never had to really learn to play. Second he has exposed his really blatant sizing tells on video for sharp players to see, as well as his degenerate style of gambling in the game. He is playing a lot lately like a pit junkie chasing losses and even a fish like airball has been showing he has to learn the game while Ethan doesn't seem to care. With that said you and I just paid him some pennies to keep grinding and a lot of people buy the merch so the income comes whether he cares to learn or not.

I don’t understand why you call an all-in with QJo…even if it’s “only 860 bucks,” that’s still a lot of money and if you punt like that all the time you will have a tough time climbing back to $1,000,000.

Other poker vloggers I watch say things like, “I have to be right x% of the time for this to be a profitable call” or “I have x% equity if I make the call here.” Not things like, “whatever, I’m stuck a bunch of money, let’s gamble, can’t lose them all right?”

[@nicholi2789]

He constantly rationalizes his terrible play by saying things like “how can I ever win it back if I dont gamble?”

[@snipersonly7688]

The saddest part of all of this is the fact that Ethan is simply unwilling to listen to his audience even tho we genuinely care for him and want better for him. very sad situation.

Gambling money should be invested in coaching. Need to find that edge again.

[@jacklam9239]

100 percent, I believe he was doing to smaller games, 5/10 10/25 etc, his game switched to be more concern about being fancy and facetime, coaching will do Ethan a lot of good, re adjust focus,

I like you Rampage because I ran into you at the Rio a couple of times and you were the friendliest of the poker vloggers,but you are turning into an ATM! So since I was a Good Luck Charm for Kelly Minkin in 2018🍀,I'm sending you some Luck🍀! Good Luck Rampage!🍀😊🤑💸

[@jeff.horwitz]

I don’t believe I’ve ever “disliked” a video on KZbin before, but there’s a first for everything. If Ethan isn’t reading the comments, we gotta at least let him know through the KZbin analytics that these videos are complete trash. Sure, I watch these videos for entertainment, but the main reason is to learn how a solid poker pro thinks and analyzes poker hand situations, but this just isn’t cutting it.. Also, unbelievable how he “doesn’t think he’s making too many terrible mistakes”… from loving this channel, to despising it, I really hope he makes a change for the better, because as everyone is saying, this is the road to -$1,000,000. Hoping this turns around, we miss the old Rampage..

[@Konitama]

You don't have to dislike the video... Just stop watching his content. He's clearly not a "solid poker pro". He sun runned some tournaments which made him look like he knew what he was doing. The past couple of years is just reality catching up to him. Either watch for entertainment only, or don't watch. You aren't going to learn anything helpful from Rampage aside from what not to do.

[@ronaldcodner2187]

Solid poker pro and Ethan don’t belong in the same paragraph bro. If you’re really here to learn from a poker pro and the analytical part of the game then you’re on the wrong channel. This is absolutely a “what not to do” in EVERY HAND. Even when he was winning it wasn’t analytical, it was absolute gambling. Don’t come here for tips and tricks. This guy is an absolute idiot who hasn’t learned that doing the same thing expecting different results is insane.

[@bjmartinez1596]

Come on rampage, get your game back on point! Stop punting, right now on this down swing you have no bluffing power my guy. I'm rooting for ya!!!

[@mark.mazzarella]

[@RafeSacks]

Agree. Didn’t stop to ask what hands he could beat. Always a bad sign. Poker isn’t a game of winning. It is a game of decisions. Make the best decisions with incomplete information. The rest can’t be controlled.

[@Icyhotkettlepot]

First hand, blasting off 3 streets with 7-high. Sheeeeesh.

[@scottmiller6955]

The last hand is indicative of your style of play. You called a 2x all-in with unsuited kj. Behind to every pair

[@scottmiller6955]

Behind to every ace. Behind to every better k. Bad poker.

[@Konitama]

But it was "the end of the night" and he "needed a win" and he was "down money" so that means get it all in and cross your fingers time.

Bro getting invited for his action lol 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Chemissed-qc1bt]

The first hand pretty much sums up perfectly rampages throwing good money after bad issue. Rampage plays absolute trash pre-flop at positional disadvantage against ranges that are also super wide and often end up multi way. Feels the need to c-bet to thin the field with a junky draw. Start a semi bluff on turn, because guess what the trash hand is still trash. Then blasts it at the end when river bricks. I feel like you can't just use aggression to correct prior mistakes, it's ok to have some give ups. I reckon Rampage gets looked up with a Queen quite a lot given his image, especially if this was at Hustler. It's also a double edge sword, if the bluffs get through it encourages more aggression. If they don't get through then it's tilting and encourages more aggression. Bluffs should scare people..but I feel like consistent and sometimes badly timed aggression, people are more scared of the bet size (pot odds) and not scared of the story you are trying to tell e.g I have thick value. Storytelling (the entire line and image, history)/betsize are similar and related but not the same i.e I know rampage is probably overbluffing but I'm not sure this is the right spot to call down with a weak Q to such a large bet

You need to tighten up a bit brotha. It's also okay to buy in short stacked. I would encourage it especially since your tilting an on a downswing. You dont have to be the biggest stack all the time only when the game is fire. Plenty of advantages to buying in short. Especially when half the people at the table are short.
