As someone who has walked up and down the strip many times and been to all those locations, I would just like to call attention to the effort and time required to make the intro to this.
Ben, you can avoid bomb pots by playing in Pennsylvania. The No Fun Patrol which is our Gaming Commission bans them. Next cross country trip, stop by Parx!
Any Chance I could say a very quick hello to you if you are playing on the first or second of Feb? I will be finding a table at the pepper mill both nights. My wife and best friend and his wife are fishing for trout on pyramid lake both days. Brian from VA
I'm a X poker dealer of 15 years, I have dealt 1 bad beat jack pot, quads Jacks over Quad 9s; $64K, my coworkers on the other hand one has dealt more than 8 and another one dealt 5.
Hey Ben, sounds like they only recently started doing those PLO bomb pots on the 3/5 table because when I played there in September, they didn't do those bomb pots at the 3/5 table (I was happy to escape that, from the 2/3 ttable).
Ben JUST WONDERING HOW MANY DAYS DO YOU PLAY AT PEPPER MILL DURING THE WEEK AND AVG HOURS YOU PLAY A WEEK DO YOU PLAY JUST ON MON-FRI OR DO YOU PLAY WEEKENDS WHEN THE GAME IS BETTER WITH RENO TOURIST
Nice little win to pay for the hockey tickets at least. This year the cup seems up for grabs. Great vlog. For your running in the beginning how long did that take you to record?
The cross body bag is the nuts for playing poker. You can keep everything you need in your bag, cash, wallet, keys, charger, etc.. way less cumbersome and inconvenient than a backpack.
You might not make an NFL team with your 40 time, or an Olympic relay team with your quarter, but dang, you move pretty quick for a big guy. I sure ain’t gonna challenge you to a race…of course I got a bad knee, and sciatica…ha,ha,ha.
The way the game is _meant_ to be played, you whippersnapper, is everyone gets five cards, round of NL betting in turn, dealer last. Then everyone draws in turn, dealer last, then another round of NL betting and low hand wins. Although NL Draw, hight, is great too.
I used to only really play at Bellagio and Aria in their 2/5 and sometimes 5/10. Lately I’ve transitioned into just playing the Venetian 3/5 and 5/5. Great room, great games. Don’t tell anyone though
Lol, that intro. Made even more amusing when you realize how far Park MGM is from the Venetian (which happens to be the very last place in Vegas to still offer Spanish 21). 😄 Also gotta check out the new poker room at the Venetian first chance I get. I gotta brush up on my O8 game though.
HOLD UP. The Peppermill closes at 9pm? Whaaaaaa??? Is this every day during the week or just weekdays? I played cash there for 3 days in 2021 and I don't remember that at all.
I watch weekly and have to give you kudos to that intro. I ran from the Wynn to The Mirage last year so that I didn’t miss a reservation, and felt dreadful afterwards haha
Loved the intro! 100% agree, Park MGM is the hotel of choice when watching the Knights (or visiting and watching the Bruins play the Knights). Vegas is the perfect venue for going to a game. I will be heading to Vegas in 2026 when the As move into the new stadium and the Red Sox are in town for a series.
Just the best intro ever!!! 🥳 I've done that a few times... that... "I'm not that thirsty" move ... 😂😅 *O...and PS, You're in great shape, my friend!!! 💪 The poker wasn't bad either 😇💸
Hey Ben, back in September,, I played at that poker room in the Palazzo. It's a nice room, but like you, I really liked the old poker room at the Venetian. When I was there, I had to play 2/3 NL before playing on 3/5. The 2/3 game had Omaha bomb pots, which I've now grown to detest. I lost money on those. Fortunately, I just about made up for all of that at the 3/5 table, and had a slight win after playing blackjack. Hopefully, the cards won't be hard in Vegas for you. Good luck on the rest of your trip!
Greatest intro of all time. You really thought this one out. Hilarious refusing to pay the astronomical amount for a convenient store drink & I knew you were going to pull off the Ferris Buehler move after passing the musician's spot, & more, very well done.
Also, I think as a for profit player a guy must be an absolute fool to sit out of the double board bomb pots. Specifically the PLO ones. People just play them so badly that even if you play them conservatively you can seriously pad your win rate.

Indeed. Best intro ever. That was some award-winning shit right there. For a second I was like, "was that Tom Cruise or Ben Deach?"
Whoever did the 100 edits on that run is a beast 😅
Bro. DonkFish is a pure PLO Vlogger. Straight to the hands. No silly frills.
I think that's plo professor
@@acesneightscoldz153 Who?
@@emt52889they actually do meet up games together.
The level of the commitment to the intro Bit, was perfect.
If an elf on the shelf could run! 😂
the poker Vlog first poker hand starts 6 min into the video.
@@pot_kivach160 Ben will do it in 5 next time
What a joke, a poker vlog with 5 or 6 hands played.
lol donkfish is a good PLO/ mixed game vlogger. Seems like a nice guy
DonkFishPoker is a good mixed game vlogger his videos are straight up and right to the point might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I like him.

Your running all around Vegas, and not straight to the shops was too funny!
Ben- There are a few good questions in this comment session. i'm sure several of us followers would be interested in your responses. Thanks,
My favorite poker opening ever. My wife belly laughed too. 👍
I like the old room better.
Run Forest run!!! lol ❤❤❤
just wait until next week with that comment

Interesting, and fun, intro there Ben. True one of a kind sorta Hockey experience
Hey Ben. You run like you're on fire lol.
Best one of these videos so freaking awesome run just run Ben
Fanny pack over the shoulder is functional. And keeps your stuff in front of you and away from pickpockets.
Not worth looking like an idiot.
Donkfish is my favorite plo vlogger. Great content.

Are you kidding. That intro is a life’s project
Man-purses that's what they are called. "it's a purse" as Chow would say from the Hangover movie.
European carry-all is what my friend Jerry calls them.

You run like Evan from Superbad. Bravo!
What's the drinks service like considering it's away from the main casino floor?
Uh so how did u not win at 16:05
That is one way to get the steps in!
Dude
How many miles did you run
Nice little win to pay for the hockey tickets at least. This year the cup seems up for grabs. Great vlog. For your running in the beginning how long did that take you to record?
Not near enough cards in this one. Like your stuff tho. Keep up the good work.
The intro reminded me of the Labor Day Telethon
The cross body bag is the nuts for playing poker. You can keep everything you need in your bag, cash, wallet, keys, charger, etc.. way less cumbersome and inconvenient than a backpack.
The video editing was on point this video! 🔥
You might not make an NFL team with your 40 time, or an Olympic relay team with your quarter, but dang, you move pretty quick for a big guy. I sure ain’t gonna challenge you to a race…of course I got a bad knee, and sciatica…ha,ha,ha.
As long as I can beat the average 40 year old in a race Ill be happy!
Seeing yo ass running is always funny as hell!!!!
You took the long route there for sure
The way the game is _meant_ to be played, you whippersnapper, is everyone gets five cards, round of NL betting in turn, dealer last. Then everyone draws in turn, dealer last, then another round of NL betting and low hand wins. Although NL Draw, hight, is great too.

Don’t tell anyone though
16:05 And, V flips A8. What a CS!?
Your OMC is showing
I was thinking. Damn your fast!! Till I realized I was watching in 1.5 times speed.
I should have asked everyone to do that!
How to know someone is not a local in Vegas…they’re running.
Love Donkfish poker. He vlogs PLO and Big O
Wayne is a great plo vlogger.
PS: DBBP is how they get you hooked. Omaha is the worst.
Confused why did they chop the pot when you had AQ vs A8 on A9943 board?
They didn’t. It just looked like they did because they broke a $500 chip and gave it to me
11:07 completely agree more people should be playing draw poker. Fun fact: A-5 triple draw is older than Hold 'em.
After all that running I hope she bought both!
A+ intro Ben. A freakin plus
Pretty sure you did not play sports. That running is something.
"He snap folds immediatly" what is wrong with this sentence? wouldnt mention it but ben thinks he so erudite
I know you have fun with her!! Smoking big upgrade from the baby momma
Who knew Ben had wheels like that
Lol, that intro. Made even more amusing when you realize how far Park MGM is from the Venetian (which happens to be the very last place in Vegas to still offer Spanish 21). 😄
Also gotta check out the new poker room at the Venetian first chance I get. I gotta brush up on my O8 game though.
Love the intro 😂👌🏾
That's enough exercise for an entire table + the dealer
HOLD UP. The Peppermill closes at 9pm? Whaaaaaa??? Is this every day during the week or just weekdays? I played cash there for 3 days in 2021 and I don't remember that at all.
I might have been being sarcastic

100% agree, Park MGM is the hotel of choice when watching the Knights (or visiting and watching the Bruins play the Knights).

If you are ever in New Orleans, no bomb pots at Caesars, but also no vlogging
Are you playing tonight the 15th
I was wondering who that goofball was that was running all over the place down on the strip.
The run for me made the vlog 😂forest gump cuzin I love it 😂
Donkfish plays 4- and 5-card poker. I have hopes someday you'll learn the wonders of Big O.
I tell players all the time.... bigO and 5 card is the rolls Royce of poker.
If I have to run to get there, I'm not going.
The gentleman in red looks like Limon
If Limon was 20 years older and French
Le mon
Love your vlogs greetings from Germany🎉
Steven segalest running
I love Alexxa's
8:27 fanny pack over their shoulders
Did you go to Steven Seagal's Running Dojo?😂
LMFAO!!!. You nailed it...
how i run in my dreams
Just the best intro ever!!! 🥳
I've done that a few times... that... "I'm not that thirsty" move ... 😂😅
*O...and PS, You're in great shape, my friend!!! 💪
The poker wasn't bad either 😇💸
Plus 4 bills thanks to your battles with Sammy Hagar. Now you got a little coin to help pay for those purses 👜.
It's funny that no one could see the imaginary bull ring in your nose😅
I know this opening took a while. But yes, this is amazing!
Hilarious opening
Well done on the intro. Phenomenal.
9pm omg 😢
Nice intro swell done
Why are you running? Why are you running??
Epic intro!
Tom Cruise run got nothing on you Ben 🏃♂️
Top-shelf intro!
Over 6 mins til a single hand is played on a "POKER" vlog, to much talking not enough poker being played.
You’re a stud just for all that running.
best intro ever
I would not participate in bomb pots. If I wanted to play PLO that's what I would do.
That was the most non athletic runs I have ever seen in my entire 51 years life. God Dammmm!!!!😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That's what it takes to run good !
Now you can practicing the hit and run too !
Your best intro to date Ben
Great intro. Thanks for posting.
He looks like Forrest Gump running...
Ok Forrest, please don't ever run on camera again
Pretty fast for a tall white dude.
Intro was best vlog with lil laughter on side loved it
That was the best forest gump impersonation I’ve ever seen

No you can't.....small profits in DBL board.
@ You’re totally right, good players would be smart to sit them out and save themselves the time and ante.😉
