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.
he got so many Bengermans, he needs a rubber band to hold it all. So baller!

Yeah, with PokerKraut's vlogs I make sure to watch the entire add--it's the small contribution I can make.

Damn sure skipping every ad on Troop's vid (for the 1 or so a month I'll watch when the comments in this thread blow up about his aholeness and pique my interest).

I am surprised nobody has called out Heart Attack Grill for making their scale weigh 15 - 20lbs less than it should. Pretty shady they are doing that to get out of giving people at 350 or just 15 - 20lbs above a free meal.

Well, the tweet function works like **** on this site, anyway here is a link to his tweet from last night with the hastag #chipporn and the teaser that he might reach his goal on Mission 1 in one night. It looks like from the tweet, he did not play there.

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.
Just like everything else he gives up on... eating healthier scrubbed, working out scrubbed going to 2/5 we will see probably scrubbed, weight lost challenge scrubbed, coming to vegas to play Satellites scrubbed...BTW Mr. Ducks did he ever pay Carl back the 5,000 scrubbed!!

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).
I think that is where the problem is every time the people in the youtube comments get on him he starts to appease them and does what they want but hey what do i know?

With everyone who says he can barely beat 1/2, 1/3 I think he's gonna get crushed No Pun Intended DC.

LOL If I lost 2,000 on a downswing I'd be devasted for a month.
P.S. I am half way there though.

DC is entertaining because of posts like the ones I just quoted. Maybe DC wasn't being supportive enough of Trooper and needed to praise his ability to outthink people and read souls at the table. Only a genius can have those skills.

I disagree. It's more that he can't beat the games over the long term. Sure, the risk of ruin would be relatively high, but a good player could build a roll out of the $2k in 1 or 2 months. Trooper hasn't actually proven that he can beat 1/2 over the long term. Let's keep it in perspective. He hasn't even been winning at poker for 6 months.

His tricky style is definitely not well suited for 5/T. Losing players like him are a dime a dozen there. His calling station nature should destroy him at 2/5 or 5/T.

I mentioned this in a long rant about the weigh in challenge video but it was TL;DR so most probably missed it

This is a PERFECT example of what separates Trooper from Neeme and from successful people in general. One aspect is the attention to detail. Neeme would realize this is a great spot to use the money clip a FAN sent him in the mail to use instead of forgetting about it as he rushes to put out a poor quality video. Second, Trooper is completely unappreciative (well maybe he's 10% appreciative out of 100%) of his fans and the things that they spend their money on to send to him. He doesn't even think that they put some time and energy to go to the post office, wait in line, and pay money for an item AND for shipping on that item. Finally, he's just a schmuck. Someone send you a money clip, you have a specific need for a money clip for this video, and you probably just tossed the gift away because you didn't like it and use a stupid rubber band instead to look like a bum (similar to how he dresses and treats his body.)

Being successful or a loser is a thin line. It's the little things you do that add up big in the long run. Luck helps or hurts everyone randomly (or maybe there is no luck, who knows?) but it's the people who maximize on the opportunities that make it big. Trooper's mentality is pretty much the opposite of someone successful.

What is trooper's plan if he wins at 2/5? Even if he does win initially I don't see him sustaining that. I don't think his meta game is good enough.

First, still no answer on WHY Trooper was late and no apology to PokerKraut or PokerKraut's or his own fans for tanking the weight loss challenge and being ridiculously late for the final weigh in. On Twitter he claims it's between him and Kraut and that it's been handled but he is actually still blaming Kraut somehow for this whole debacle. SMH. Trooper is DELUSIONAL!

Now, his challenge in principle is a good idea. Yes, I'm actually praising Trooper after all the bashing because doing a short term ladder climb up in stakes is GREAT for the vlog even if it is completely stupid for his bankroll and his poker game. It's definitely more fun to watch the vlog results if you know there are consequences (positive or negative) to a win versus a loss. It's been years of win $200, lose $300, win $66, lose $85, win $457, lose $963...whatever. There is no running total or progress reports or graphs or charts or anything that happens after he reports his results. There's no reward or penalty so the win or lose becomes arbitrary. (Although some good fans have made a tracking in the past of his results FOR HIM - Trooper is so f*ckin' lazy - there is nothing for his YouTube fans.)

But now you know if he wins to get up $1000 total, he's moving up in stakes and SOMETHING NEW HAPPENS (for the first time in years - minus Aruba and Austria).

As great of an idea as this is, it would have been better 2 years ago when he started vlogging in Vegas. How cool would it have been if someone started a vlog where they play 1/2nl and if they book a win, move up to 1/3nl, and then 2/5nl, and then 5/10nl and if they lose they drop down a level? Wait, didn't ANDREW NEEME do EXACTLY this a few months ago when he started his vlog. Good job taking 5 months to copy Neeme's idea after Neeme DOUBLED your subs from scratch.

Will this challenge work? Well, it's very short term and there's a possibility that Timmy gets super lucky (oh no, he doesn't believe in luck - which I'm sure is a lie because losers like him are always superstitious to explain why bad things happen to them) and moves up to 2/5nl and then set over sets someone to move up to 5/10nl. Heck he might run hot and win a session or two at 5/10nl. That would be super exciting for the vlog.

But if he fails, it will be depressing to see him knocked down a peg. Hopefully he will keep doing this challenge again and again even if he busts the $2000.

It would make more sense to put a time deadline on the ladder steps so if he gets stuck at level 2 (2/5nl), he can pocket that profit and start again going from 1/2nl up to 2/5nl. Maybe add a step of 1/3nl going between 1/2nl and 2/5nl.

And he needs an end goal at the 5/10nl level because he can't sustain that more than a few sessions and will definitely go busto so mayve if he can hold his own for some time, he considers the mission complete and starts at step 1 again.

I would love it if he ended up at Neeme's table at 2/5nl or 5/10nl and got hand analyzed by Neeme

I don't think he has a real plan and just needed some crap to appease his viewers. I bet you bails on this "operation" randomly some day and it is never mentioned again like
- exclusive content for Patreon subscribers
- the weight loss challenge
- so much other little stuff that Timmy sweeps under the rug and never talks about hoping people just forget

I've been playing a lot of 2/5 lately and more so than skill level, guys have a lot more gamble in them and the bankroll to withstand multiple swings of thousands. I watched a guy the other night grind a $3k loss back to about +1600 in about 7 hours. Not many people have that moxie and ability to do that regularly. The challenge could fail in a matter of hours, or he could crush it. Can he keep it up, or will he try to keep it up is what's important.
