Las Vegas Poker Player Vlogs - Page 11 - Las Vegas Lifestyle Forum - Las Vegas Entertainment and Living Information

For people who regularly watch troopers vlogs: can you post his daily results and any hand histories in this thread? I don't watch the vlog anymore but would still be interested in those things. Thanks.

You just want the funny stuff huh.

So its a 100 hours of poker in 2 weeks?

What about an "eat breakfast everyday challenge for 2 weeks"

He desperately needs a routine..... But of course that goes against what his goal is. Which is to wake up whenever and do whatever he wants

This is the irony of a poker career. You do it so that you can have a flexible routine, but if you aren't good at making yourself do things, this isn't the career for you. It'd be much better if his vids were him talking about the objectives that he's already achieved for that day. Instead it's always "left early from last nights games so I can edit a vlog and get up early tomorrow" & the next day followed by "woke up at 6pm today, heading to the strip now"

Not sure if trolling, but it's definitely better to just do what you say you're going to do. After awhile, you're still getting an ego boost from telling everyone, while they're not even taking your claims seriously.

He really bought in a tourney for $300? Can't imagine buying into an MTT with 30% of my net worth like that.

Being at the casino for X hours doesn't necessarily mean you're playing poker for that amount of time. We frequently see Troop take long breaks (30+ minutes at a time) as well as random strolls for vlog footage.

I'm interested if he shares his winrate at the end of this challenge.

And for us long-term watchers we've heard this song and dance before. Preaching to put in more hours while not actually following through.

If you leave your seat and walk around or get dinner, are you still logged in and getting hours?

Really enjoy Andrew's vlogs,

Good to see Trooper looking more upbeat, think Andrew's videos could be a really good learning tool for Trooper as I'm guessing he'll watch them.
