.... He stated that he got to MGM around 3:00pm and left at 1:50am. And of that nearly 11-hour period, he only clocked 8.2 hours of poker. That would be a ridiculous use/waste of time even on a normal day; given that he is trying to attain a goal of 100 hours in a two-week period and he began the day needing 57 hours this week, it is simply atrocious that he wasted almost 3 hours out of the 11 he spent there.

That's White Knighting Trooper?

And on a related matter, if you don't like reading my posts, there's a very simple solution. Ask winnercircle; he's apparently figured it out. (Although that hasn't stopped him from commenting on my posts.)

It's not difficult to place your phone in a non-threatening manner while filming hands and blacking out your screen. It's harmless. Although it sounds like some nits found Troop too obnoxious or something and some people ratted on him at Planet Hollywood. He hasn't really been back (maybe once since) and that was a few months ago.

He also mucks his cards and throws chips around in a way that could cause some people to dislike him. I personally didn't care but others might.

Not letting him film hands is dumb IMO. He really does try to avoid showing faces and it's mostly showing him folding hands anyway. If I ever sit next to him and he starts filming the chances are low that I'd even notice.

PokerKraut is out with a new video and he, too, is doing the 100 hour promo at MGM.

Latest Trooper vlog all sorts of gold.

Notice when Troooper tries to say something funny he always says "just joking". He needs to because everyone always have blank faces after he attempts a joke.

It seemed like he also tried to joke with a girl and made her leave the table.

Hilarious stuff troop, keep it up

He actually was the one that started that with her. Guess he would say he was joking or whatever though. I wish I could have heard that.

Also I wonder who the regular at MGM is.

You're a 55 year old guy with a perpetual hard on for a 1/2 "grinding" vlogger and defending his honor against trolls to the bitter end.

You should get me a juice box and an orange slice and take Team Mom as a compliment.

Would be awesome if you would do a vlog about not just the o8 Orleans games but also o8 in Vegas in general

I plan on heading out there next year for the first time and o8 is by far my best/favorite game online so defo will be looking to play as much live as possible.

Been doing a bit of research so far and only place that seems to have consistent games running is the Orleans and its all limit i think so would be good to watch a vlog where you talk about the Orleans games as well as other (plo8 ?) options.

I just became sub number 77 for pre-emptive karma purposes

Whether he's up or down isn't relevant. It's all just one big session. What is relevant is that he's crushing this challenge. He will beat 100 hours and he will do so profitably. Trooper is really coming into his own now as a poker professional.

Also, it was nice to see Poker Kraut. What a great guy. He doesn't get nearly enough love on here. Dude should be everyone's hero. He crushes life.

What do you think the minimum bankroll Troop would need to take shots at 2/5?

Given that he moved to Vegas with like 2K, I'm going to guess he'd be taking shots with 5-6K.

Does that mean his bankroll has never hit 5K?

Tropper ain't playing no 2/5 anytime soon. It's good he's finally getting his actual grind on though. Gotta say if he dusts off $600+ in sessions because he's hungry (or ate too much), it's going to be closer to $1600 at 2/5 for those losses. Not sure our boy's bankroll is heavy enough quite yet.

But hey a few more 100 hour challenges, a few more promo hits, maybe he'll step up to the $500 1/3 at the Wynn...

When did the Linq close again? August? Almost 4 months without a job, that's impressive.
