Did Trooper just hit rock bottom with his latest vlog?

If it's at all possible for a person to find a way to go below rock bottom, I'm 100% confident that person would be Trooper.

Andrew Neeme is lucky. In terms of BB he's ran hot since the creation of his vlog. He's ran pretty bad in most of the televised / bigger games but tbh he's a much better 2/5 player than he is at 5/T. I think even he would openly admit that.

he shouldnt care too much about crushing 5/T+ or his poker winnings in general. He's probably making more than any 5/T pro right now thanks to revenue generated from the vlog. And if he's not then that should be his number one priority. He has a really great opportunity to monetize his growing fan base.

Trooper wasn't going that fast when he fell, and his body took most of the impact of the fall. Now imagine that he wasn't so lucky and was either going faster or landed wrong, it could be way worse than a few cuts and bruises.

Trooper - wear a helmet when riding the BB!!!!

Also, you may want to consider putting some better content out in your vlogs ... they're boring as hell.

Surprised nobody has mentioned this video with Negreanu cameo. Appears everything old is new again for Daniel.

Daniel has a new beard, both literally and figuratively.

I guess the comment that worries me the most is one most probably glossed over when his skateboarding buddy said he should go to MedExpress and Trooper replies "How much does that cost?".

If you aren't going to have medial insurance then you probably need to be in a place in life where the cost of MedExpress is irrelevant to your medical condition at the time.

I make my share of mistakes in life so I'm not in a position to judge, but this is concerning.

He’s not in the tunnels or panhandling in parking lots so I would say he’s far from the bottom.

He’s not gonna climb much further up in life though with some of his decision making and thought processes

Why is shaky cam Trooper all hell-bent on proving some coin flip math? To whom? This was very odd.

For some reason, this particular statistical analysis makes him feel intelligent.

His long winded explanation (over 3 vlogs is it now?), is cringe at best.

We get it trooper, you are Will, just waiting to solve impossible mathematical equations on a whiteboard somewhere in your apartment complex.

Trooper needs to wake the hell up. He blames his losing on Variance, it's his crutch. It's laughable he said " Wonder why people who made a bunch of money in 2006 online poker don't make any anymore" well dude a winning 25c/50c player today would be a top 5 cash player in the world back in 2006".

Games get tougher as time go's on you can blame variance as a crutch but your only fooling yourself amigo. It is not variance you just suck at poker it's that freaking simple, you should be able to run bad at 1/2 forever and still win because your winrate in soft games like that is massive assuming your good.

You refused coaching from Squid and others people that have been winning for years playing higher stakes than you ever do. Why Did you decline those "free" offers? .......Here's a hint your massive ego!!

You approach the game with a old school mentality that it's about psychological warfare to you. All while the game has transitioned to a more fundamental/theory based game which you neither have the fundamentals or the knowledge of the theory to be fundamentally sound. What you really should do is take those math skills you showed and start thinking in ranges and understanding how many combos of X or Y are in that range and how you should build your range. Hundreds of videos I have seen and you always seem to put them on 1 exact hand..... nobody good does this anymore....

You can sit there and change nothing but eventually if you do that you will be forced out of the game. You can blame it on variance than and continue to stay delusional but trust me nobody will believe you and hopefully not yourself. This is the problem with society/social media/FB/TWITTER everyone wants to look good, present the best part of them or their lives but it's so fake. People go through struggles and pain in life it's ok to look weak and vulnerable, the ability to show that is actually sign of strength and most of all a sign of character. You need to wake up and fix your mentality of blaming variance, it's not variance... Variance is your crutch.

ThrowingRocks,

Funny thing about Troopers winning players in 2006 logic is that he was a not very good player in 2006, 2016 and today

Love your videos, but I honestly don't think the moustache works for you.

This coin-flip vlog of Trooper's seemed like a filler vlog, since his knee is in pain and he took a day off from the strip. I guess he didn't want to miss out on the pocket-change he'll make from it.

I think quite the opposite.

One reason that I never considered vlogging as a creative outlet was because it is very hard to sustain. (Also, I am more of a writer than a talker and have what I believe would be a horrible on-screen presence.) Putting yourself out there on a regular basis is tough. I play 30+ hours of live poker a week and it is an emotionally-wearing endeavor for a natural introvert where I feel like I am performing for my opponents because I am not going to be that headphones and hoodie guy who doesn't interact with the table.

Andrew seems to want to grow and expand and he is reaching the limits of what can be done as a one-person operation. Is the poker vlog audience enough to support a multi-channel network? Would people watch if he had a secondary creator on his channel? Will the vlogging contest lead him to people who he can collaborate with and ease his load? From watching, I understood that this was a point that he was going to reach at some point.

I don't think people really appreciate how hard this life can be. Someone like Trooper gets criticized for various things but, whatever his faults, he shows something by staying in the game. Maybe he can be a better person, but he can only be a sustainable effort by being himself and he should avoid trying to be something that he is not.

I've actually been thinking about the lives of poker vloggers after watching this video, which I recommend for any vlogger who is feels stress and anxiety and want to know about Youtubers struggling with a life of being on-camera.

Trooper's the boss, and when the boss says to make the coin-flip vlog and get those cheeseburgers, well, you make the coin-flip vlog and you get those cheeseburgers.

Honestly if everyone keeps arguing with Trooper in his comments he will explain this theory everyday for the rest of his life.

Also Lol @ the odds getting further away between flip 10,000 & flip 25,000... Tempted to leave a troll post telling him he just proved his own theory incorrect

most of what you say is true.
as many of us said years ago trooper is hot garbage at poker.
he has a huge poker ego for no reason and is basically delusional as far as poker goes.
listen just to the conversations in low stakes games, be it poker related or just life related and even the winning players in those games are generally a lot dumber and have much worse poker logic than the winning players in high stakes games.it's not a coincidence.and he's dumber than those winning low limit players.


however what you're wrong about is LIVE poker is mostly not about theory or any of that crap.
it's about playing at fun tables,being able to handle long streaks of run bad, making games fun, making sure the donks like you and give you action as well as massive live tells where people literally tell you their hands and do things that make it obvious they are going to fold behind you.

gto nerds on their headphones and tablet don't make close to what they could in live games if all they're worried about is hand ranges and fundamentals.don't get me wrong you need to be somewhat fundamentally sound (which trooper isn't) but it's not as important as a lot of people think.
