Not long back from 2 weeks in Vegas, mainly (unsuccessfully) playing the daily deepstacks at the WSOP. Saw a few vloggers:

Jaman - best Bieber t-shirts worn by any man
Trooper - shorter than I thought. I went to Troop Thurs but ended up in the 1/2 as the TT list was too long for me. Troop seems hyper and always up and down to the floor as though he needs to help manage the TT lists somehow
Bikeking - Good to see him in gainful employment. Likes Cheetos, and rattles when he walks
Boski - much taller than I thought. Must be 6ft4. I'm jealous of his hair
DNegs - saw him leaving the raised table area for a break at an Aria high-roller, accosted by 3 continental Euros with broken english who wanted a photo, Dan points at restroom and says "when I come back from the restroom". Euros misunderstand and start obediently following DNegs to the restroom.

As you said, you're hearing very little about them. You can't ask for better play when you don't know what you'd even be talking about, unless you're going to assume.

Actually it has a lot to do with it. If a poker player doesn’t study, what are the chances that his decisions are going to be as good as the decisions of a player that does study? It certainly explains why he struggles at 1-2 NL.
Actually, it has nothing to do with it. A hand played in the past is over with. It was either played properly or it wasn't. A decision to reshove 40BB with 99 from the BB against a button open and SB 3bet all-in will not become any more correct if the player spends 1000 hours in the lab later that year. Practice affects future performance and decision-making.

But you’re talking about someone that has been successful in the past. If Negreanu never had success in tournaments, still only played 1-2 NL in the last year and struggled for years to move beyond 1-2, of course it would make sense to say he sucks.
Past results don't determine future performance. And I was kidding.

As Doyle Brunson said, poker isn't about whether you win or loss, it's about making the right decision.

Assuming that he's relaying the details accurately, which I have no reason to believe isn't true, it seems like he's getting deep into a lot of these SNGs and is coming up short on the good side of flips when the stacks dictate that it's shove/fold time. Given a large enough number of trials, you're printing money if that's the case.

Have you ever been in a Vegas casino in the summer? It's either 130 degrees because the AC is broken or 20 degrees because it's on. Plus it reduces his chances of getting skin cancer.

Pretty much. This “printing money” is just a simplify explanation to look cool. Anyone involved in Poker knows there’s no such thing as easy money. The rationale of “if you do xyz, you should be making easy money” is erroneous. You have to put in the work, pay attention, have bankroll discipline, have the right temperament to come out ahead. Poker is complex with many non-card factors involved.

Trooper always giving us these bad beats when he loses but doesn’t mention when he wins these STTs. Maybe he put it in bad and got lucky. Maybe he put it in good and won. If you put your money in good 70%, you can still lose 30%. So let’s say he puts it in 70/30 and wins. And does it again and win. And does it a 3rd time and loses...is that really an anomaly? I think not.

Even if that’s true, in the future he may not go as deep in them. So it’s possible he wins a higher percentage of flips, but busts out early more often so his overall results wouldn’t change that much.

This quote from Dnegs in his latest vlog was hilarious

"If you are an amateur and you really want to look like an amateur, show up at the World Series of Poker wearing a suit. I promise you no one will take you seriously."

you're not printing anything in 175 dollar high rake sit and gos especially when you suck at poker.
he's not relaying all the details.he's cherry picking details and crying when he loses a 70/30.in some cases it's bad play by the other player, in other cases the hands play themselves, and even when they play themselves he acts like it was skill that let him get ak all in for 8 blinds vs aq.

and past results largely do determine future performance in poker. if you struggle to beat 1/2 nl for years on end, have a poor work ethic, continue to make the same mistakes over and over again and can't handle constructive critisism chances are pretty good your future results will also suck.

They pay out 3x$500 lammers plus $100 cash, so I wouldn't call them high rake.

Well, I hate to be at this point and I'm not joining the haters, but Trooper's storyline has finally worn out even me. I'm honestly sad to say it as I've been among his biggest supporters in this thread.

The whole "as the boss" thing has just put me to a point I don't think I'm going to follow along anymore. If you are your own boss that means you are boss and employee and at this point "As the boss" you should ask more out of your employee.

To get so little accomplished and not do any work to improve or even stick to a schedule that you made isn't being the boss, it's just not being accountable for anything.

Tim, I'm among your biggest followers and, yes, supporters, but you need to evaluate what you are doing and if there is and end game to the apparent lack of direction you have currently. Good luck.


I'll never support the trolling, but #teamboski

+1,youre not printing shyt with such fast structure and high raked 175 dollar buyins. In a slow live environment you simply dont get in enough volume to realize any significant EV over time. Like if you play for a whole day, Trooper maybe gets in like 8 games or something? Maybe 10 games? Thats literally nothing when you think about the small edges available in these things.

Turbo sit and goes needs to be played online, where you can mass multitable and log insane volume over time where the small edges adds up due to big volume and high number of games.

Pensfan, if Trooper's questionable play is getting too much for you to handle, maybe you should just skip over the vlogs and not offer any opinions on our hero.
