First, props to Trooper for getting a girl, a couch, and a TV. The guy is on a roll in life. He lost a bit but the month is still positive poker wise so I think Jan 2017 is turning out to be a GREAT start to the year for our protagonist.

Second, and I'm only doing this to say I told you so later (prove me wrong Trooper), I am getting a bad feeling that this is the calm wave before a tsunami comes and catches our arrogant protagonist off guard. Whenever something good happens to Trooper (gets a job at the LINQ, wins $5K in the hours challenge, etc.), he gets arrogant, talks his head off like he's king of the world, and then crashes or kills the momentum somehow. I have a feeling something is about to happen. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but down the road, his head will get too big and things will explode. Prove me wrong Trooper.

Third, Trooper meets the girl and gets a couch and TV within a few days repeatedly saying he's getting it because HE wants to and for no other reason. This = P*ssywhipped!

Fourth, enjoy life Trooper. Enjoy the girl, the couch (not a fan but it's 100X better than that blow up thing), and the TV. Just don't couch potato all of Feb away.

The way things are going "fellas" like you are going to run out of things to complain about.

If you havent noticed their videos have slowed down considerably. Guess the troop wasnt so lazy after all, must be alot more work than you give him credit for). Next it was the lack of a bed or furniture. Whats next?

Why dont you "fella" and Misti and Dream Crusher do us all a favor and find a new hobby that doesnt involve watching Trooper's videos and posting on 2+2. life is 2 short to be miserable ****s, and its certainly to short to spend your days constantly anaylzing someone else's life.

Trooper seems to think that he will keep winning at poker the way he has been winning the past few months. I thought that was interesting.

I think it was actually $2k that he moved to Vegas with, not $3k.

Also, TROOPER buys a $200? floor bed and spends probably 9 hrs a day on that, but buys a couch for $800 - and I can only assume he spends 1 hour a week on that cause the guy is just so SOO BUSY! and he bought it cause he wanted to, no other reason, did he make that clear enough
Sarcasm I love it!!

He obviously got laid last night (good for him), so his confidence is swooning at the moment, but this fella is way to proud to be finally piecing his life together nearing the half century mark lol.
You actually thing he got a piece of?? I doubt it very highly.

But who knows maybe he has more than people think. He is getting extra money from poker, Youtube, his patreon account, etc.

I hate to crack it to you but if this GUY wants to be a public figure and have notoriety then they have the right to criticize as much as they like that's what hes going to get and a lot of it.

I might have missed it but if not this would be a 1st.

Did Trooper not drink or even mention coffee the whole time in the latest video?

I have a feeling the poker play will get less and less and the extra spending will continue.

I actually think being p*ssywhipped for a while is gonna help out Trooper. He might finally furnish his apartment and clean up the place. Plus he'll hopefully relieve some stress. The issue will be if he starts paying for her stuff (other than dates and such) or loaning her money which he will never see again. If the relationship ends, he'll still have a couch, TV, and clean apartment (at least for a few days) but I doubt he will admit to loaning her money and not getting it back on camera because he will be afraid how it will make him look.

It would be ironic though considering we don't know how his relationship/business dealings ended with his backer after Trooper lost several thousand dollars of the backer's money. What goes around, comes around????

Maybe she was sent by the back to lull him into a relationship and then "borrow" money and give it back to the backer???? Probably unlikely conspiracy theories but it would add an interesting plot twist to the vlog!

Andrew Neeme's deleted scenes concept for an extra vlog here and there is brilliant! I like shows/vlogs that do bloopers in the end but this is even better. I enjoyed his deleted scenes video from New Orleans more than all the other vloggers' regular videos which just speaks to the quality of his work and the time he puts into it. His videos really are head and shoulders above most of the other vloggers both in style/quality of the presentation and the content.

I used to really like Trooper's video quality but either he has been slipping lately (several months) or I just didn't have a frame of reference before. I would never compare Trooper to professional vlogs because it wouldn't be fair but Andrew's videos are definitely on par with some of the 1 million+ sub vloggers.

The fact that his videos come out just twice a week or so definitely leaves me wanting more and I think that is a good thing. Over saturation of low level content is definitely a negative to a vlog. Wouldn't someone want less videos to get X views total as opposed to more videos to reach the same total? I think that speaks to the quality vs quantity debate and brand image. It's like McDonald's vs Prime Burger or some other quality burger place.

I agree Andrew's vlog has become the gold standard for poker vlogs. His content is head and shoulders above everyone else. Trooper still does a really good job with the production aspect of his vlog, but in my opinion (and it sounds like this is what you were getting at) the story he's trying to tell has just gone stale. It's literally the same thing every day. He still has a good personality to be on camera, he does a great job of editing the videos and shooting B-roll, but the meat and potatoes of the vlogs have become repetitive nonsense. Wake up, dick around, coffee, poker, go home. I don't have any problem with him wanting to live his life that way, that's his prerogative, but that doesn't make for interesting vlog content. It's not even that he doesn't discuss hands he plays or films his hole cards, or analyzes what goes on at the table. It really boils down to he's been putting out largely the same vlog every day for months and it's getting tired.

Personally, I've watched him for years now and have enjoyed following his story, but it's getting harder and harder to watch because it's become flat out boring. I hope he takes the time to diversify what's being included in the vlogs, takes a few cues from other vloggers on how/what to present as far as poker content, and makes his vlog that much more appealing. His production value remains among the best, but the content is slipping waaayyyy behind.

Trooper will get friendzoned then complain about getting the couch and TV. Its funny how he was bragging in this last vlog. Watching youtube vids at home won't keep a chick around. Trooper getting a woman of her caliber just shows the power of "fame game." Even a semi-popular 45 yr old youtuber with not much going on for himself (money, hobbies, looks) can pull a woman of higher value than him. It reminds me when I saw Gavin Smith and his hot girlfriend in Vegas (years ago) -- I almost fell off my seat.

It's not a television until he gets cable. As of right now he just bought a giant Youtube monitor.

Same for me for 2years or so. I have Google fiber free 5Mbps package so I don't have an internet bill either. Cable bills are as bad as resort fees.

Look, we can argue about the merits of Trooper buying a couch. We can argue about whether Trooper will go (or already has gone) broke. We can argue if he has a backer to pay back. But I think we can all agree that this bull**** is literally the stone nuts-dumbest thing written in this entire thread.
