Wonder how many chips he has.

I'm rooting for the guy. He has a bit of a Rudyesque quality. Sure he's a little goofy, but got to admire a guy with nothing more than a dream, a few bucks in his pocket, and the balls to pull the trigger.

^Yeah I don't really have a problem with this guy at all. As long as he doesn't berate his opponents or give the dealers a hard time, I seriously doubt that I'd hate him. If someone hates his vlogs then don't watch them.

At least this guy is realistic in his goals and got a job to keep him on his feet when he needed to. Cant help but wish this kid well. He's young and following his dream. TBC is just a degen that abandoned his family and child to well live the life of a degen lol.

TBC is epic degen...sort of the morbid attraction though. this guy seems fine albeit a little misguided...and if the few times I've played w/him are an indication could work on composure/relaxation a bit for +EV

Who is TBC? Link?

/noob

Ehmm okay.. just watched a couple of his vlogs, and it wasn't interesting at all. No poker talk, just him commenting on how his work at McDonalds sucks, which casino he is going, and why he is going home again..

Unsubscribed.

Wait...he has a kid?

This dude is actually pretty funny.

TBC = Tony BigCharles

This is inappropriate. Why are you being so creepy and stalking the dude?

+1

^Now he's effing the LLNL white magic?


I think this guy is great, I fully enjoy listening to his rants, as misguided and short sighted as some of it might be.

fyi... I don't mind the call outs and sightings when hes at the table.

carry on.

i find myself entering social situations saying "Whuuuut up" more and more these days.

Surely you're not going to completely abandon "Sup Bro?"

+1 Even sounds like AJ a bit w/o the raspiness.

Meh, the guy was at the poker table so I don't think it's a big deal.

I think his videos are funny and entertaining. They do get repetitive and I did see a couple that were really boring, but overall I think they are interesting.

I don't know how creepy it is. Under normal circumstances, sure, a little creepy. But look at this guy's videos - I mean the guy basically wants to be found. I bet if you walked up to a full table and started talking loudly like, "hey aren't you that trooper guy?", it would give this guy a boner.

In today's "my life should be a reality show!" fawking nonsense, this guy wants the attention.

Awwww, don't be too harsh on the guy! ... I've created this thread just because I think it's cool to follow someone who is trying to survive in the city and is open and fair about it and willing to share it with us. I haven't met someone else who has done that before.

For me personally it's an eye-opener and I think I can learn something from him. In the near future I want to live, survive and grind poker in Las Vegas as well.

This. I went up to him and commended him on his videos. He was a pig in ****.

Yeah, not surprised. I don't think you were being creepy - I'm sure he loved it. Dude's videos are still boring tho

Yeah if you're making a vlog of your poker journey and publicizing where you play it's not creepy for people to notice.

Completely untrue. No one said anything to me about videos. You're lying. But why? Why would you lie? I understand confusion itt, but why make **** up? Lol @ you. I WAS at Aria, table 15, seat 2 (and later seat 9), but no one, not you, or anybody else, spoke to me about videos, nor did I want that.

Btw, I don't intend to argue with haters or trolls itt.

love "the trooper." the videos are great. i'm hooked.

On a more positive note....

What up, it's the trooper...

Thanks to iRaiseProffs for making this thread so that those who enjoy the videos could find them! I never started a thread here because of all the haters, trolls and know-it-alls. I almost did when I left Florida but decided to avoid negativity as much as possible. Everyone else is good with me though!

For the record:

1. I'm here (Vegas) for the money.
2. I'm in search of freedom.
3. I enjoy making the videos.
4. I make no promises as to content. It's a vlog, not a roadmap into the way I view or play the game.

I won't address every post but a few people seem confused. For example, I've never worn sunglasses at a poker table, it's just not my thing. So the guy who thinks he's played with me, and I was really still, wearing my shades, must just be mistaken.

All good tho. Haters hate on and friends enjoy the show. Down the road a bit, we'll be able to rub the hater's noses in the sh*t they spray on 2+2, the internet, and all over Earth. Whether we choose to or not will be up to us.

And seriously, again, welcome new viewers and friends.

To prove that I am the TheTrooper97, I'll name the next video, the one after Thanksgiving in Las Vegas, "2+2".
