Trooper looks so contemplative in that thumbnail. Almost as philosophical as So-crates.

Spoiler:


I bet you he gets a lot more groupies after today's video. Chicks dig that contemplative ****.

The top players all know when to tighten the vice grip as well as when to slow down..

At Boski's pro level ...

It's about the Benjamin's, not about enjoyment.

I've been saying that for a while now about Boskie, that the fact he doesn't adjust his play has been detrimental in climbing the money ladder. But who am I to judge, he has been profitable since player since starting the Vlogs. It seems to work for him.

He mentioned he was pretty tilty so I guess he didnt enjoy it?

To be chip leader and bust out 7th without any real coolers, it really is some kind of indication.

But he will always remember the tournys that he won playing that style.

There are so many other pursuits that you can make more money in than poker. Besides, you only live once, so why wouldn't you want to enjoy what you are doing?

Boski plays PLO for the enjoyment (and gets crushed at it)

He's gotta make money to buy food for the dogs, and put a roof over their head.

Otherwise, tunnels

You can still love what you do, overall, even while sacrificing some of that enjoyment 10% of the time.

Live poker can be quite excruciating at times, especially for an online wizard like Boski.

That's not good.

Boski could use some coaching up from Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler.

Smooth things out a bit

Exactly, I'm not about to blast Boski. If you compare my Hendon Mob results to his, his are surely superior.

But that doesn't mean his game can't improve. A little Chainsaw nittiness, in critical tournament situations, would only improve Boski's overall results..

Post of the day. Jeff would probably go to all lengths to provide for his dogs, hell I would do the same for mine. Speaking of Boski, the "Boski Breakdown" is my favorite hand histories of all the vloggers especially when he's at home looking like he just ripped through an 1/8 straight to his face.

I have to give props to Boski for his fade to grey towards the end of the VLog and the "annnnd we are.............still in" as the colour comes back.... Was pretty damn good. Well done Jeff

Your posting history would beg to differ you on your tolerance before judgement but whatever.

"as easily" is the key word in my statement. I am not perfect, and Trooper definitely makes it easy for people to judge him, especially when he makes the same mistakes over and over again.

But some thing are over the top. For example, it always gets me when people on here get on Trooper in regards to his diet. But I bet you some of those people criticizing him may smoke, chew, drink excessively, do drugs, or do something that is even more detrimental to their bodies.

You got on somebody because they get enjoyment out of the Vlogs. So what if they do? That's my point.

And to fill his cupboard with mugs
I read some comments on Youtube from people that were excited about buying his t-shirts because they were excited that he would make money off of them.

It's really strange when people ask why haters watch the videos if they hate him so much, but then they constantly read a thread they hate and are obsessed with haters in this thread. One might think they would stop reading the thread they "hate" and find better things to do with their time. They don't even take their own advice to stop wasting time with things they hate. Instead they obsess and react with thin skin to every little criticism of their hero.

I had to watch a little bit of the last video because the title got my attention and he complains about someone else at the table being arrogant and letting others know how smart he is. It's so ironic.

Again I am sorry if you felt you or another poster were judged because that wasn't the point - the point was to lead them to see they shouldn't be so emotional about free online content they have little to nothing invested in. It's not a movie you dropped $36 for 2 tickets on or a sporting event you would drop a $200 on.

If someone spoiling the vlog is ruining that persons day, they should go for a jog, catch some some light and remember it's just free entertainment and there will be another one tomorrow.

Also if you want no chance of a vlog or Anything being spoiled you could, you know, like, GTFO the internet or a specific forum until you've had an opportunity to watch said vlog. If you come here first to see what people said don't get upset when people discuss what happened in recently posted vlogs.

This stuff ain't hard

I know you find it hard to understand Steve because of the type of person you are.

There's a big difference between you coming here day after day spewing hate and me coming here once in awhile to try to make a difference in this cesspool. The entire internet gets worse and worse every year with the haters and this is a shining example of it. I can't just walk by and pretend it's not happening. It has nothing to do with Trooper and everything to do with you.

If I walked by a group of thugs beating a guy up everyday, I would also do something about that. (Hint: you are one of the thugs)

THANK GOODNESS! What would LVL do without you riding in on your white horse and being the hero of the thread. Whew, we are all better off with your (lack of) contributions. Thank you once again for saving us all.

Anyway, Trooper has put himself in a tough spot with his impromptu and improvised road trip. Like his eating habits, these things would go much better with just a bit more planning and foresight.

Also super LOL how he walked up to the gym and said he couldn't stop there to work out because he has too much to do. There's always no time to work out if you don't make any time to work out. Our man has to get in there and put a some sweating in. All this driving/sitting/fast food eating for 3 weeks is really starting to show; and it was already starting to show before he left Vegas for this trip.
