Alright he got me to re-subscribe for the challenge. Good job by trooper creating new content today. He's still is a dick for big timing Kraut, though. But it's more forgiveable to be a dick when you're making interesting content (from a viewers perspective).

Will be interesting to see if he has the discipline to not get stuck 3-5 buy ins in a session if the challenge is at risk of going bust.

Legit lol'd when he jumped in front of people commenting that he would be putting his whole roll on the table because I'm sure 2-3 people said it anyway.

It wasn't all sarcasm. I put myself out there by being Trooper's lone remaining vocal defender (there were a few other nuthuggers who have remained relatively quiet over the last few months). The reason I began my vocal support Trooper was because people ITT were criticizing him harshly despite the fact that he was finally succeeding on his terms.

Previously, people criticized him for living in a ****hole. He rectified that by getting a new apartment. People criticized him for not having a mattress. He bought a new mattress. People criticized him for not having a girlfriend. He found a girlfriend. People criticized him for not having furniture or a TV. He bought both. People criticized him for working dead end jobs..well he hasn't needed to work a job in months. People criticized him for losing at poker. He started winning. People criticized him for being unhealthy, and he was seemingly addressing that with the weight loss challenge. I was bamboozled by that one, but overall Trooper has done a lot to improve his situation in the past year and yet people started criticizing him more than ever. It wasn't until this situation with PokerKraut that I fully understood why. I was so adamant in my defense for Trooper achieving his goals that I was blind to his extreme narcissism and selfishness.

TY. Exactly what I suspected.
I realize you get flamed quite a bit ITT - however, this is not that. After this explanation...I completely respect you.

DC shoutout in vlog was amazing. I think DC has a rational perspective fwiw though explanation unnecessary. DC is for sure my second favorite poster ITT after myself obviously.

I may be rooting for him on this. Of course it would be funny if he busted roll in the first couple sessions, but I hope he reaches 5/10 for the sake of the vlog.

IPS is absolutely correct, this could be done in a weekend if the stars align.

I'm not trying to take sides btw. I would handle things very differently than Trooper would.
Trooper is an idiot. The Kraut took it easy on Timmy and even put up a post on both Timmy's and his own vlog in the comments telling people to back off of little baby Timmy because Timmy sent an email to apologize and can't handle all of the brutal honestly of why Timmy is a little b*tch.

We still don't know why Trooper was late. Did he not have a clean shirt that didn't make him look like a larda*s?

We still didn't hear Trooper apologize to Kraut and his crew for being late and for not actively participating in the challenge in a vlog.

We still haven't heard Trooper apologize to his viewers for lying that he was going to do a weight loss challenge. When you promise something to someone, you need to follow through. Trooper promised a specific story line and then gave up after a few days.

We still don't know what the punishment is and when the punishment will be administered. There have been 3 vlogs since the weigh in an not a peep from Frooper on what is happening. He is now big timing his viewers by totally ignoring them and their questions.

It seems like the weight loss will never be mentioned again by Trooper like it never happened. Just like a week or two ago when Trooper promised exclusive content for a $5 monthly donation and there has been NO change to his Patreon since that point.

This Trooper guy is a con artist. He's trying to swindle all of us like he did his backer. I bet be fake reported loses to pay for his apartment and car.

But yes, Conz, for about 8 years but I've also worked as a production assistant, story editor, video editor and I'm going to shoot and edit a rock-documentary this spring/summer so feel free to send me a PM about any of that.

If you're local to the LA area I've meet with 2+2ers for coffee before to talk as well.
Unfortunately still in Jersey, but I will PM you. Don't worry, I consider myself fairly competent and well read on the "craft." (hate using words like that.) I just like to shoot the **** with other writers/people in the actual business.

Then you can do background work but you will need a part time job as well to pay the bills because getting in isn't easy. But once you get a sag card work is more prevalent and more money. But to get a sag card takes a while it could be 6 months or 6 years knowing people in the industry does help!!

P.S. A Sag card is way cheaper in Vegas then LA.

i may be the only person who has never fantasized about acting at any point in his life. I write, I'd like to write, there's zero chance i could act. that's cool though.

Not that it's a surprise at all. I mean you are here on a daily basis spewing hate.... the same **** over and over. That is sad and pathetic enough, but now I find out that half of you haters are spending time trolling his Youtube comments as well. What a full and wonderful life you must lead.

It's no wonder you can so easily look down on Trooper about not managing his time, when it is clear you are managing your time in such a productive manner. I'm sure you have the rest of your life in top order as well.

All of you idiots that hate Trooper could easily just stop watching his videos and stop devoting every day of your life to bashing him..... but you don't. What do you think that says about you? Or do you dare think about it?
You don't see anyone attacking Neeme or Boski do you this bloke brought it upon himself with his NPD or Bipolar crap he does...I think his whole problem is He has ADHD he admitted that and he can't concentrate long enough to do one project!!

I'd LMAO if Operation Uptick ends with him not even making the $1k necessary to play 2/5 lol.

Also, sick brag that he has $2k in cash money.
Nickname we need an update where the frooper stands we all know your the man don't forget to cut n paste.

I thought he was going to try and play 2/5 when he said something big and different was coming up. People on Youtube kept bitching that he needed to play higher.
I bet he got this stupid Idea from Rambo woods on the YT comments section.

This, unfortunately. IIRC I defended him multiple times ITT in the past cos its his prerogative to lead his life or play poker as he sees fit. But he lost a lot of respect with me for dodging the Kraut challenge and not even apologizing and now he wants to move up when he cant even beat consistently what is probably the softest, lowest rake poker game in the world (Vegas 1/2, 1/3)? Delusional and douchebag

He is giving the fans what they want. There are a lot of idiots in the Youtube comments section that keep pushing him to play 2/5. He is doing better than ever and it's not enough for them. They want him to play 2/5.

I've been in 2/5 games in Vegas with over half of the table being better than the best player at a lot of 1/2 tables. The games with a $500 max buy-in are softer though, but still a step up. If he plays at a place like Aria it's a big step up from playing the fish at Bally's (or even the 1/2 regs in any casino).

It's not that he can't beat the players, it's just most of us know he doesn't have the roll to handle 2/5 swings.

That 2k is minimum 33% of his roll. Maybe even half.

Trooper's soul reads and tricky style of play are more suited for $2/$5 and above. And the better players will respect trooper's raises and re-raises and back the **** off !!!

I think I read here sometime earlier that trooper's game is more suited for $2/$5 and above, and I most assuredly agree.

Trooper stated in a recent video that if he went on a $5K down swing, it wouldn't be devastating. This implies to me his liferoll/bankroll is $10K. Not sure where he got it, but whatever.

Cool story bro.... all bullsh*t though. CrushedDreams has done his flipflop routine a few times.

What's cool about CrushedDreams is that during his Autumnal Equinox phase (reverse-trolling), he actually nails how pathetic the real CrushedDreams is (Vernal Equinox straight-troll phase). He's just too stupid to realize it.

In the world of Youtube revenue subscribers mean almost nothing if they do not contribute to views. Retention (length of view) and interaction (likes and comments) are the two key analytics in driving revenue to the creator.

Buying subscribers can be a detriment to revenue as it will most likely hurt the subscriber to view ratio as the fake subscribers won't contribute to views and interaction.

Youtube is also diligent in scrubbing subscribers that haven't watched a channel over a period of time.
