What iconic poker star should we cover next?
Ted Forrest. Haven't heard from him in a while.
Luke swartz from UK would be interesting
miami john cernuto if u havent already
Tom Dwan
Steve Albini... RIP.
No friends in poker. Just people pretending to have fun. Everyone at the table hopes everyone but them loses all they have to them.
Well said.
"during the full tilt days, money flowed like water" yeah that was kind of the problem eli
Eli you took a page right out of my playbook! Well done, those Full Tilt days were wild weren’t they?
Whoever runs this account is a legend 🤣
Those tilt high stakes cash tables with Durrrr, Ivey, Hanson ect.....was inzane dayz
@@sandhanitizer15 agreed dude, i also think sand hanitizer could be a bests seller
Man I’m dying over here! That’s funny stuff
so the book had nothing to do with losing friends. what a weird title to your video
As a rule of thumb I never loan money to friends for gambling
as a rule of thumb, i never loan money to anyone, ever.
They are definitely not as rich as they claim to be. A lot of them are broke
I was wondering how he was doing. Glad to see he got into the Hall of Fame. I'd like to request Barry Greenstein if you haven't profiled him yet.
He beat me out of 32k pot a multi millionaire and won’t pay his debts
Yet here I am nowhere near the wealth he has and pay every soul that I owe no matter what shit just doesn’t add up
I played the Hall of Fame event at the WSOP the day he was inducted.
Remember at the WSop a few years back he didn't want anyone sat next to him if they had not had the Devil Juice! He went down in my estimations after that 😡😡😡
Saw Eli at ResortsWorld about 5 months ago, was playing cash of course in a separate room. Not sure what the game was and didn’t wanna be annoying and bug him. Oddly enough the only person at the table that knew him was the dealer. Nobody else had any idea who he was. Not a bad thing tho, shows that there will always be a never ending stream of new players in the game!
He looks a lot different with the white hair 👨🦳
I was about to say the sames hes 20 years older and has gotten elderly @MrAgmoore
Scam artist.
I have no idea about the financial arrangements these guys make. But what's interesting is the rather high % of these poker player stories that nclude allegations of reneging on gambling/staking debts. Which leads me to question what % of allegedly successful players are, in fact, successful (at poker specifically). I'm starting to think the marketing and side hustles are more the point than making money at the actual game. And based on all these outstanding loans, it's not enough for most players, even good ones.
I believe the reality is that about 20% of players are winning money off the other 80%.
Thank You!-For The High Content About Eli Elezra!-One Of My Favorite Poker Players!-Raymond "Mike" Hong!&(I've Learned About Poker From-All The Poker Pros&I've Won-Myself-Also!-Mike!)😎👍!!!!!!!!!
Most of the original guys were all scammers
Still are
Yeah all controversy on those guys ,,,milking the public thinking they stars n rich ,,,in reality they broke n owe money ,,,like Brad boom
It's Poker....now we got Rampage n Merryano.
Eli is a beast he was playing on a show recently. Not sure what show it was.
No, he's a fraud. His game is trash and he's always been a losing player. He's in debt to everyone. Stop praising scumbags.
Well done with your channel/content mate, it's been a joy watching you grow.
Really appreciate this - thank you!
I thought he was a multi millionaire from Restaurants, typical pos
Read Mike Mattasow’s book, “Check-Raising the Devil”. You will agree when they do finally vote him into the HOF.
I was on his side until he said loans dont have to be paid back. Hes the guy that borrowed money, im sure he didn't say - hey you, give me some money, im a gambler. Dude has no integrity. Paying back a loan is honorable.
Well he dodged the question actually
" I never promised to pay the money back *the next day* "
Basically saying that if someone loaned him money they will just have to wait
He said loans don’t need to be paid back the next day . Not that loans don’t need to be paid back at all .
@@michaelblankenau6598 But the implication is, you'll see the money when you see it --- if EVER. That is shady af when its said after the fact.
I dont believe in anyones background unless its VERY well documented ... much less a poker players. He longed to be a soldier huh? Yeah..I was bummed when Volvo took me out of their crash test dummy program ~I loved it so.
Well, that's how I always perceived him as an enigmatic somewhat slimy side character (probably the only one with his own book). So are his posts now, unclear and seeminly dodging a straight answer, wiggling out. My questions are: 1/ does he owe money now, is he broke? 2/ is his book any good?
He owe me $20🎉
Get your money back!!
😂
Matosow owes me a Big Mc Meal.
I asked him about. He said he has no intention of paying that $20 back, sorry 😅
Where I'm from when cash is owe it will be collected. If cash isn't collected property of some sort will be collected. That's a guarantee.
5:40 This #MoreBob thing is really getting out of control
He never has done me wrong, always a class act…but that’s my experience
Hi Kyle! How’s your day going today?
Day is going great, thanks for asking Jamal!
I live in Vegas and play low stakes poker. I've heard hundreds of stories from dealers and other players about "professional" poker players. My conclusion: the majority are degenerate gamblers who are losers. In general, many also have other addictions such as drinking, drugs and sports betting.
This is interesting, thanks for sharing
You do a great job.
Appreciate this! Thank you
A crook even before hitting Alaska.
This man owes EVERYONE IN THE POKER COMMUNITY.
What Israeli doesn't owe everyone. Especially now
#110. This man is a parasite and a ne'r do well
Where’s the proof?
Not sure on his logic about repaying (or not) loaned money. Very uncool.
*****yes I will be paying the WSOP this year!!!
I'll be in Vegas in July!!!!!
they are all gamblers, not professionals.. thats the difference
Eli's "insane skills"? 😅 Eli's a fish-reg
Hmmm. Connected to Israeli Defense. Suddenly gets a big business and he uses the money to become a professional gambler. He then finds himself inside the biggest poker games, and part of the online boom. Then, suddenly the FBI shuts it all down and knows about inside cheating. Hmmm.
i'd think he'd be losing friends since he's a known deadbeat. saw him promoting this book right as it came out, ignoring all sorts of calls for "pay me my money you deadbeat" from a variety of poker pros.
yikes, would've been better off just not saying anything, instead of "back when full tilt paid me stolen money (as it was a ponzi scheme) i paid back my debts, but when ever anybody lent me money they knew it might not be coming back, oh yeah here buy my book by the way"
at the end, umm no, unless dude pays back the people he borrowed from he'll always be known as the deadbeat guy who used to be on TV poker shows.
Dam poker players need to sign over their house.
People have to realize the poker industry has nothing but degenerate gambles with no values, and Never and I say Never loan money to gamblers.
LOL Eli was never a professional poker player. He was the fish in the game. Funny how you think 100% of the players playing high stakes are pros. You know that makes no logical sense right?
You need to back off the fentanyl, it's screwing your brain
So in the end, logic dictates that you shouldn't refer to a 5-time bracelet winner as a "pro?" Oh.
Typical gambling addict.
That's really crappy saying that he never intended to pay back the money borrowed. Definitely not a cool dude for that.
Where on earth did he say that?!
He never said that, he said he didn’t intend to pay it the next day not ever
My mistake. Has he paid them back then by now ?@@checkmugged
@@SaintGeordieLadholy moly. My mistake haha
You are clearly a very poor listener, maybe you should go back to school.
An israeli guy.... No surprise there...
Wow I wonder why this guy scammed .
Great vid!

Must be so sad to be you.
Zionist’s gunna Zionists
@@mattperil6074 people without a sense of humor gunna be cryin'
check the site in my username for the complete resume of Eli's crew.
First time hearing the commentary sound like it was recorded in a bathroom.
Been having some mic issues, but will work on fixing this
This dude aged so fast. Not recognizable.
He was born in 1960 man he is 64 years old nearly
You won't look young at 65 either.
Mike Mattisow is potential poker HOFer????
he's been screwed for a few years in a row, a lot of people were pissed he didnt get in in 2023. Some players said they were giving ALL their votes to Mike because of it so, he should get in this year if there's any justice
Mike is a jerk, have u ever met him? He needs help,,,hahaha
Another poker player/ scammer
