What is the situation with the age-restriction verification. These videos don't seem all that shocking?

Because both knowing math and having money are bad.
It has been decreed by the credit card companies.

They haven't removed my content, just flagged it as age restricted to 18+ so you have to be logged into youtube to view my content.
I had already been marking my content as not appropriate for kids anyway, but maybe this is an additional step?

Youtube is getting tired of explaining to kids that this isn't one of Santa's elves making a career change.
It’s Spewey, the lesser known 8th dwarf.

I'm finally sun-running online against the droolers
I don’t play a lot of 5 card high but it seems to me that when you get to the river 3-way with the 2nd nut straight and it goes bet call, that’s a fold, right?

5 card PLO is WAY more nutted than 4 card, so generally speaking yes

new live vlog is up!
Just start to watch you latest video and would like to ask you a question. I have always wanted to video my play. I know your using your cell phone but do you just record the whole time and edit later or do you start and stop recording until you have a hand? I would love to try this when in Vegas next month. Do most casinos care if you do?

So what I do is start and stop recording, if I know I'm folding I still make it look like I'm starting recording, even if I'm mot, so I don't give anything away.
This way I don't have a giant video clip to hunt through, I essentially have each hand I might use seperated.
Saves me time when editing, plus if a video file is bad, I don't lose the entire session.
Most casinos do NOT permit filming.
I'm playing in texas social membership clubs, that are more friendly towards it.
I speak softly into my phone to note the action and the board runout, so I have that as notes when I edit
Thank you for the response to my question. I am not surprised its really allowed in the casino. I did see it going on in one I plan on playing live in Vegas so maybe i will give it a go. Thank again for the info.

Some casinos allow it, but you may need to obtain permission first.
Some vloggers just do it anyway and hope to not get caught, or get an app that blacks their screen while they record so it doesn't look like they are
Actually that's a great idea. I will ask permission before I play. Better that than getting embarrassed by the floor or worse get kicked out. Thank you again.

I have been using an app called Background Video Recorder.
It blacks the screen so I can record my play without someone else watching from further back. I leave it on my entire session, and rewatch at a faster speed, but that can be tedious to rewatch, but I think my game has improved - or at least made me aware of some of my errors.

For sure one thing I've noticed in vlogging is that it forces me to rewatch my hands over and over as I edit them, and I catch mistakes I've made and work on adjustments.

These guys can't help themselves with the 20/40 straddles on
Love these Anthony. The pace is perfect.

See you're looking for a new place to move to, to avoid maniacs with deep pockets. Can't you play 1/3 instead?
OP

Do you mean NLH? I have no interest in playing NLH, and my audience follows for PLO content
I'm just looking for PLO that doesn't have unlimited straddles and match the stack
Deep-pocketed maniacs just turn those games into Bingo.
It's harder for them to do that if the games structure is protected so you can actually play post-flop poker, instead of constantly flipping coins for stacks.

No, I was thinking 1/3 PLO. Is 2/5 the lowest?
I know in Bucuresti, there's a casino that offers $0.5/€0.5, max 250bb buy in and €1/€1 max 500bb buy in. Not to expensive in European standards either.

In Austin across all the rooms I've played here is what we have:
1/2 with a $5 bring-in and unlimited straddles and match the stack - the primary game, mostly found at Lodge and TCH
2/2 PLO - very rare it actually runs, full of nits and usually breaks quick. Buyins are weird, like 200-700 and they do allow a straddle to $4, but again, rarely runs or remains running if it goes. Might get players waiting for a 1/2/5 seat who will leave as soon as that opens. Really feel like they'd have been better served offering a 1/1 PLO, the 2/2 just seems too close to 1/2/5
5/10/25 PLO - never played it, but guys will win and lose tens of thousands of dollars in this game, obviously plays huge. Heard a story about a gambling lady who started in the smaller game with just 200 bucks, spun that shit up, moved to the bigger game, spun that up and had something like over 80 grand in front of her. And all the deep pocketed guys were leaving, coming back with 60k and eventually they broke her cause she probably felt invincible and didn't have the discipline to get the fuck out while the getting was good.
There IS a 1/3 NLH game, but that's generally pretty reg-infested and if it runs it's just 1 table, you'd be better served playing the 1/2
