I went there to regroup after losing my ass at the craps table. Next time I am in town I plan to hit up the Linq and tip a few redbirds your way. Good vlog; keep doing your thing.
Nice meeting you man, but please, dont be sorry lol. You don't owe me starbucks! Dealer tips are appreciated tho ha!

During most of the video, I just woke up! I feel absolutely great and the game both days

Good work Troop,

Do we ever get to hear a run down of possible goals and timeline?

You still had a sleep crease aka temporary face wrinkle from just getting out the bed, in the beginning shots of the vlog post.

I also suffer from sleep crease.

If you shove your face into a sink full of ice water it removes the sleep crease.

this had me busting up, from jay farbers twitter: "Some ******* was just driving 45mph in the fast lane with his phone out the window of his car taking a video. I hit him with all the lights"

Time to start up an exercise channel or pick up a houxx to teach you how to put on makeup.

Trooper, I'd suggest not filming with your phone out the window.

Old LINQ room had a wall of tvs depending on your seat. Harrahs is a pretty good room to play and watch. Palms used to be the best with the sportsbook view.

I'm self-banning myself from that Ballys poker room. Doubleshots when you order scotch, Keno lounge 10 steps away.... Gotta seal up all my leaks. :-D

I don't know how I never saw this before but I watched a bunch of your vlogs today. I'll be following from here on out. If you want to meet up sometime I'll be in Vegas Thursday-Tuesday pokering and degening

I doubt it because I think the cocktail waitresses get their drinks from a service bar, not from the casino floor bar.

If you changed seats the TVs vanished?

Everyone was thinking it, I was just the first to say it.

Saw you at Aria tonight Trooper. I was in seat 3 when you were leaving. I was really surprised to see you because I don't see you at Aria or Bellagio that much and I'm often playing in those places (lots of good rooms to play in this town though, and occasionally I'll play in other rooms myself).

Not sure what the deal was with seat 2. He seemed annoyed the entire time I was sitting next to him (it might have been easier for me to notice because I was sitting next to him and could hear him getting annoyed with other players) and I thought he was running well. I've played with him briefly before and he was running super well when I saw him then.

Yo, two new videos...

Liked the story time.
09-03-2015 , 11:30 PM
Story time was really enjoyable! Anyone that has played a good deal of under ground games has a police raid and a robbery story. That are always so wild to hear. My main underground game back in '07 and '08 had a pretty extensive security system that you had to get buzzed into and it got both busted and robbed. Easy money for crooks.

It's hard to tell in your selfie videos but, when you are interacting with others, you seem like a genuinely happy and and likable guy. Ex. The Limon video and the story time video. I think that core sense of happiness is the key to your success even during the downswings.

Keep up the great work!
