Haven't watched it but if you're wearing a No Gamble hat wouldn't this be the appropriate thing to do?

Maybe to act some type of part, but not appropriate if you want to be invited back. Which he won't.

Depends if others were in on it.

As I say, I never watched it so I have no idea. I don't mind watching the occasional vlog but watching a live stream of a game isn't on my agenda

Why wasn't Trooper invited? No respect for the pioneer. Stones a bunch of haters.

From what I saw, it looked like he was largely ignored by the rest of the table. No interaction, or very little, at all.

The Vegas Vlogger business is turning into professional wrestling..Boski overnight turns from Face to Heel..

They say it's hard to get a customer and easy to lose one.

Boski ****ed up with his stupid troll effort. Even he seemed taken aback by the torrent of hate for him in the chat while he was in the booth. He was awkward and terrible there. Particularly after the grace and class shown by Jaman, Brad and Neeme.

So, his little joke amounted to his showing his ass to around 900 viewers. The vlogger / streaming poker universe isn't big enough to take that large of a **** in front of it.

Then trooper pops up in the chat and throws shade at him. Hilarious, it was the highlight of the night, after Vibes' spectacular rungood.

Someone in this thread claimed Jaman gave him a head shaking angry look.

Anyway, a fast follow up from Poker Priest...

I think it is OK to separate Boski the tournament vlogger from Boski the person.

His tournament vlogs are still the best in the business..

One last thing I noticed, being on site.

Neeme and Jaman are my favorites. Partly because I don't play tournaments. Partly because I like their vlog styles.

Jaman felt to me, approachable. I popped in for a quick selfie with him at the table. Probably a breach of etiquette, but he was completely open and nice. Didn't hurt he'd just won a nice pot, I suppose.

I didn't feel comfortable approaching Neeme. It was more like, "He's working, don't bug him."

That had nothing to do with his demeanor, it was all in my head. But I thought it was interesting.

Trooper really does make good editing work on his montages...

Did he just went go on a red light while riding his boosted board on the Strip? Wow.

Did he really not go to the vlogger game (I guess it's too big of a game for his level) and then just showed up in the chat to troll Boski?

I guess all those people who said he should ignore Boski didn't know that Trooper can't resist trying to take jabs at people. Was he actually funny or anything or is he just as awkward in chat as he is in real life?

Boski did blow it apparently though. It seems like his true self has finally leaked and he's about to fall to Trooper's level as the butt of most jokes, if he hasn't already. It seems both of them suffer from the problem that their egos are way bigger than they are.

I disagree. If not your own personality, what are you showcasing in these things?

If it's poker, there's hours of PAD and tournament video on YouTube. Why watch a vlogger at all?

Troop was asked why he wasn't invited, in chat.

"I dunno"

Underrolled, at least by perception, could be one reason.

Standard trooper. Fielding shout outs, ignoring haters, jabbing at Blowski.

88,000 views and not even a mention here. Weird.
Thanks for the heads up. His videos are nice but he's technically not based out of Vegas so maybe that's why he isn't talked about here much.

Good videos though and episode 1 was a roadtrip to Vegas.

Like Trooper and his warm milk gag?

The announcers in the booth were basically laughing at boski for playing with all one dollar chips in a 5/5 game. When the male announcer asked "Why does he do that?", the female announcer said "To make it look like he has more chips". ldo lol. She then went on to say "For those of you who don't know the chip denominations, those blue chips are only one dollar each".
I couldn't understand why he would sit early in a live streamed feature game with only 54 big blinds ($270) all in one dollar chips.

I also saw him limp in with AK from MP then check/fold a 5 way 356r flop. What? This guy offers coaching on his website?!?!?!??

He needs to let go of his Go Gamble copycat trolling angle. It has failed and failed miserably. It didn't get the intended result of making him be perceived as a popular heel or bad guy. It made him look like a desperate copycat instead. The "me too" approach seldom works in branding. Being an image "follower" tends to result in a marginal image.

It is time for Blowski to rethink his branding strategy. If he pushes with this failed one, it would be harder for him to erase it and set off in a new direction. His public persona is not at a crisis stage yet. But it will be if he continues to pursue this failed Trooper trolling strategy.

Time for a pivot Blowski.
It's not at Trooper level yet but he's on the same road it seems like. Trooper is several miles further along but Boski seems to be headed in that direction.

A little bit of humility goes a long way.

Trooper's new video:
He is so good at poker that he value bets AK high on the river with the hope that he gets raised so he can call and make more money. I am not sure how he loses all the time being so good and all.

Also calls out someone for their behavior, saying where did he grow up. lol

Give him credit for making the decision to not ride his boosted board on the Las Vegas Strip at night "for now". "Too dangerous..." lol

Both act like immature teen-aged boys, and if not for their vlogs, I would want nothing to do with either of them..

"But why does nobody ever criticize the other vloggers?"
- trooper supporters

People turning on boski will probably end up being good for him - just like it was for trooper when he went from like <1k subs to >10k subs after the 2p2 thread was created. Anything to get people talking about you I guess.

For some reason, I have little to no desire to watch non-Las Vegas based vlogs.

The lone exception is Jaman, since he does go to Vegas quite often, and his vlogs are so good they transcend my non-Las Vegas poker vlog biases..

Trooper asking what barn did you grow up in during his vlog about some guy at the table...he's so unaware...just so unaware!

That's what makes his vlog good. It's about a guy who runs his mouth 24/7 but hasn't looked in the mirror in years! Classic!

On a positive, getting around the strip on his boosted board is saving him TONS of time on hat deliveries. I wonder if he can expense that on his taxes? It actually is a good investment even at $1K or $1.5K, whatever he paid for it. He just needs to clean it once in a while. It's been a week maybe and it's already super nasty.
