Wow 9 hours and +$1,324 for the day

Three dinner dates in three days with the same guy. Maybe that is why he is doing so good at poker because he's happy in life

This. Trooper haters not going to know what to do with themselves after this win.

Trooper up +$3220 over 92.5 hours of play.

Presently running at +$34.80/hour.

Who could've imagined all he had to do was add volume to make money.

Will he win the freeroll for a few thousand?

Keep running it up!!!

He has nearly no real furniture in his new apartment and he drives a 3-door Hyundai Volester.

He's doing alright but he's not staying at Veer Towers or driving Whey's beamer, let's curb the enthusiasm a little bit.

Trooper is the Chris Moneymaker of poker VLOGs but I think we can all agree that Andrew is the Phil Ivey on a relative scale. Nice to see Trooper get a big score.

Good win trooper.
I bet in his head he is "Finally my hands held up". Instead of thinking about it rationally like Andrew explained in one of his earlier vlogs

I think he is good enough for 2/5. He should do the same challenge but at 2/5! That way he can win 2.5k or more in a single sessh.

COTC posted a drunk video that was misinterpreted (genuinely or nefariously is to be debated) as a psycho blah blah and was ultimately what closed the thread

Ok, if you say so. Is that why the mods stepped in because of one video?? The mods made it clear it was the back and fourth disrespect that closed the thread. Its not one guy that got the thread closed. It was a handful of the same people posting daily.

I dont know about that kind of win for Troop at this point but there's really no reason he couldn't fire a few shots at 2/5. He seems to occasionally play in a couple higher max 1/2-1/3 games so no reason he couldn't take a couple bullets to say the Bellagio 2/5 game if he wanted to.

Yeah thats sort of why I added "if he wanted to". He seems as comfortable as Troop can be at the lower stakes, not sure he wants to take the shots. But if you're going to play the Wynn 1/3 or buyin for @ $400 to the $1/2 game he just played, no reason you couldnt test yourself for 3-5 buyins.

If he wanted to.

He said it not even a few months ago when he was in a 1/2 game at PH for 1700.That his roll couldn't last 2/5 sessions losing multiple buys.

I agree, this is very impressive. I've only had 2 sessions in my life this big and both were in KC where I regularly play. What's your biggest score at this level, Ryan?

If you read my TR, which is kinda lame and very tldr, you will see that I cleared $645 in less than 3 hours at the MGM today. Obviously, $200 plus an hour is not sustainable but ... I think there's a good chance I at least make the next freeroll. Been years since I have seen a room populated by so many bad players and tourists.

It might not last. Fish bring in the sharks. If the games are consistantly as good as I have seen there, easy money, for now. Be crazy to move to 2/5 when the 1/2 game is this easy. Sail to the Flemish Cap my friends.
