I call it the backpack rule. If there is more then one or two backpacks at the table then I know it’s not a game I wanna play. Grinders always have backpacks z Two backpack maximum. That’s my rule.
I really appreciate the question of the week this week! I felt like you gave some good insight on how to tell if people are grinders or not thank you I knew some of the things that you said, but I hadn’t really thought of every one of the things that you mentioned
That [33] hand is your own fault. At those stakes with that specific action there is no way the guy doesn’t have the virtual nuts. He gave you the chance to escape cheap and save yourself hundreds of dollars, you just didn’t take it for some reason. The Smashing Pumpkins rock.
Good one. Spotted that lost in the IPhone thing decades ago too. Except back then it was the "Magazine or Book" guy. Just so frickin' obvious. Basically loose players however still present the same way. Multiple sports betting sheets/tickets laying next to them. NOT racing forms. Sports Sheets.
Clarify please: If they walk to the cage to get chips, they ARE more likely to be a good player? As in, taking a breather? Or did I mis-understand? Adding two cents: those who have extra buy-in chips in their pocket or backpack = grinder.
Hey Ben, love the vlogs keep em coming! Was wondering if you could post the names of the songs on your intros and outros going forward? You got some jams!
One of the worst beats that I've ever seen happened when I was dealing and flipped a card. I flipped the Ad and replaced it with another A still giving the player AA. Gets it in preflop 150bb vs KK and gets four flushed by the Kd.
Bart Hanson mention: CHECK. Kayla appearence: CHECK. Mention of his stupid hockey team: CHECK (Go Sabres!). Mention of a band that had it's period of relevance a minimum of fifteen years ago: CHECK. Mention of Giants/49ers: NO CHECK.

in a previous vlog you mentioned you had a lot of thoughts that ST louis couldn't really get a game bigger than 1/2 to run consistently. as a STL player curious to know your thoughts on why and maybe a question of the week!
@@joyride1598 100% all true. Alot of my poker friends have moved to other markets because of it. I didn't know if Ben had other thoughts or similar to this
My question of the week is any recent update's on "Yukon" Brad Booth? & OMFG Miss Kayla, she's mos def LEGENDARY!!! GAWD I miss everything about The Peppermill!!!
I had a similar hand where the first card I was dealt was the Js and then the dealer accidentally flipped the As while tossing me my second. It was replaced with another J. Flop was JJ6 rainbow. I failed to get any action. Never fold 66! (At least for a reasonable amount) I truly believe you flop more sets with 66 than any other pair. While technically you have the same odds of hitting a set with any pair, in order to flop a set, you need to see a flop. This means you have to have at least 1 opponent. If your opponent is holding one of your set outs, your odds of hitting a set are cut in half. Hands containing a 6 are, overall, the least played. For example, A6 is considered to be the worst Ax combo. So for a reasonable amount, I will always play 66,77 and 88. Nines can get you into trouble, because they're just good enough to make you want to continue when not flopping a set. 1010-AA are the hardest to hit because your opponent(s) are going to be most likely to be holding a blocker.
Interesting, im always curious about where a player gets his money from, inheritance, government assistance or just plain rich parents pay him to leave them alone, lol, all those types are the best opponents 😊
@@blairjohnson6014lol, oh really, try making mental notes of players who are always in the room around the first and 3rd of every month, and you don't see them again until the eagle shits the next month 😂😂😂
@@blairjohnson6014 I was thinking more of the younger people with disability checks, but social security also counts as their main source of income, or as I see it, the 12 days a year of Christmas, 😂

Two backpack maximum. That’s my rule.
@@joyride1598 yeah but those are far fewer. A backpack is generally a pretty reliable indicator of a pro or grinder.

Hello Ben and Kayla. My favorite summer food is corn on the cob.

As always Miss Kayla is crushing it with the ice cream. Lol 😅
Nice vlog. I live outside of DC and watched Bryan play back in the day!
I just tell people to muck their hand when they say "you got it" and I don't have a pair

yeah, they are grinders.
yeah, i don't get that one either...
Profitable players make the walk. The good ones try do the work for themselves instead of making staff do it for them.

A gambler ounce stated to me over 40 yrs. ago, the "best hustle is a working wife". He happened to be a pool player & poker player & never had a job!

I agree watching a show while playing deserve zero action 😅
Luv your vlogs fam...
"Mayonaise" or "Drown"? Honorable mention "Today," so many Smashing Pumpkins bangers
My question of the week is any recent update's on "Yukon" Brad Booth? & OMFG Miss Kayla, she's mos def LEGENDARY!!! GAWD I miss everything about The Peppermill!!!
Recently they flipped up a king on me and I would have had pocket kings. Then they replaced the exposed K with another K and I then flopped a set!
It wouldn't have happened except for....shoulda taken that left in Albuquerque.
Ben Deach! You da man! Love your content bro!! Tee it high and let it fly!
Anyone heading to the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit this weekend? Hope to see Kayla there!
2:05 monster under the bed!? How to spot these??
No octo crabs getting played anymore?
Don't give em NO action!! LOL

Guess it’s time to burn the “cup in 6” shirt…thanks for the content sir!
When you can't win in your Knights shirt, you can try winning in your birthday suit. Warning: Unintended results may occur.
How can you hit a set everytime you have 8s? Crazy
It’s all skill

If the dealer flips one of my cards over i ask for a re deal
Flop a set and most Pros know faster than the speed of light.
reno nit reg ✌️
Who is ?
"Peppermill has lots of things to offer..."
Uh, yeah, CLEARLY.
God I wanted that guy in the first hand to have the octo crab so bad lol
I’m only going to buy in my 1-2 and 2-3 games with $100 chips so I can be a good player in your eyes.
Was card dead for hours, the dealer turned my card over a K, my other card was a K, Ive held a grudge against that dealer since then.
Ger over it ;)
If they have a phone on the table and are vlogging they may know what’s going on 😀
YOU SET ON Q 8 4 rainbow WHY RAISE? Argh I’m sick
Where did I say rainbow? At what point in the video?
My Apologies! Rewatched it, 2 clubs. Funny thing, I though I rewatch and post the time stamp. Lol FALSE
i've missed these; been gone for awhile. but, it appears divorced life is treating you well. very hot GF; good for you; you deserve it.
Kayla definitely does some lifting. The trapz on that girl are something else.
