Another rant
Trainwreckstv is not afraid to criticize his fellow gambling streamers, particularly when it comes to Roshtein.
Train, real name Tyler Niknam, has repeatedly called out Roshtein for gambling with fake money on his streams while lying to his followers and pretending he is risking his own cash. On a recent stream with Canadian content creator xQc, Train called out Roshtein again, but this time was different because of the evidence he had to back up his point.
both of his highest wins were on the leaderboard but Roshtein’s was missing
“Nolimit City does something that no other provider does,” Train explained to xQc. “They record their global wins on a global leaderboard.” He then asked xQc to pause his game and bring up that leaderboard. Once the streamer pulled it up, Train pointed out that both of his highest wins were on the leaderboard but Roshtein’s was missing.
Roshtein supposedly won $24m on-stream while playing Brute Force by Nolimit City just days ago. The gaming supplier’s leaderboard shows two wins of $20m and $7m won by Train on San Quentin 2: Death Row, but Roshtein’s win is nowhere to be seen.
Everyone takes shots
Referencing the leaderboard, Trainwreck said: “None of his wins are recorded, which means he has some sort of promotional account and all the providers that work with Stake are on some sort of promotional interface deal,” adding: “Certain individuals still deny they’re on fake balance.”
In a later part of the same stream, Train even took shots at Stake and Eddie Craven. Addressing the crypto casino and its owner he said: “We built you credibility and you have done well so far, but this kind of sh*t is disgusting and greedy. Why would you do that? It is gross.”
Notably, Trainwreck helped Stake develop its own streaming platform from the ground up after Twitch decided to ban unregulated casino content in October 2022. Now, Kick has signed countless major names and is competing with Twitch on its own turf. In addition to xQc, Train, and Roshtein, Xposed, Adin Ross, and Ninja have all made the switch to Kick.
A long-running feud
The conflict between Train and Roshtein, whose real name is Ishmael Schwartz, goes all the way back to 2022 when the Texan publicy ranted about Roshtein’s lack of transparency in regards to profits and losses.
just two out of 20 gambling sessions ending in a loss overall
On that occasion, Train drew attention to a table of Roshtein’s profits over the previous three weeks. He was up $32.5m since mid-January, with just two out of 20 gambling sessions ending in a loss overall. “Maybe privately behind the scenes he is spinning the slots for his bonus hunts and losing just as much as I am,” Niknam suggested.
Train has always asserted that he is completely honest about how much he loses to gambling, ensuring he warns his followers that gambling is a losing game even after bagging big wins. He once revealed that he lost as much as $25m in a single night of gambling, but he also earns a considerable amount through a partnership with Stake, once securing $360m over a 16-month contract.
