Trooper is short on money and have likely been for a while according to himself. He talked about how the pandemic have influenced his bankroll/money situation in an earlier vlog.

Yeah, they both appeared in a video together a few days ago and explained that with both of them "working," there has been no time for them to be together. She added that she had been in training for six days straight and that she was appearing in the vlog that day because it was her day off and her first opportunity to do so.

But apparently that's not enough "proof" that they're still together for some people such as Steve, who pronounced it "meh." Although other than a pornhub worthy video, I'm not sure what would satisfy him.

Absolutely. Ty LuvDaVlogs



Tyvm Xeno, unfortunately not everyone likes me though :P i tend to rub alot of people the wrong way. I appreciate the kind words though.

So I guess now businesses need to meet your product standards in order to be called a business. Let me guess.....you are one of those midwestern types rooted in strong religious Protestant work ethic where unless you're working hard long hours for minimal pay to help buy your boss a bigger yacht, you aint doin it "the right way" and taking the "easy way out".

Then you bring up "both of them" (whoever both of them are) and their poker prowess or lack thereof (something I didnt even mention) then go off how I'm a fanboy of Tim's when in fact most of my posts regarding Trooper are critical of him.

Yeah we get it you don't like being called out for saying stupid things. But nice of you to pile on even more with your latest post. Keep it coming.

Last aggressive action (bet/raise) shows first, then in play order from there. The dealer should enforce it if the player who shows first is slow.

A lot of rec players don't understand the rule, which is why it can make sense to early roll rather than start a stupid argument.

It's generally etiquette that if you're 2nd to show and the aggressive player say "bluff" or "I've got nothing" or whatever that you show. But it's not the rule. I've never had someone do that and then slowroll a winner, but I guess it's possible.

Trooper isn't lazy. He is immature and horribly inefficient. He also lacks any sort of focus.

In the case of Tim, he'd probably be what a half million dollars ahead if he'd taken the time he's spent not making money on coffee, poker, hats, YouTube etc. and simply put his highest paying skill (dealing) to work?

The Protestant work ethic exists because many people, including him, are not equipped to work smarter.

Try to play through it and see if it helps. I've been so tired it took me 2 minutes of staring at the board to make sure I really had a straight. But later on I was able to play through the multi-day WSOP tournaments that go till 2 am, and I'm old as dirt.

Actually, Robert's Rules of Poker states that last aggressive shows unless everyone checks on the river in which case the first to show is the player left of the button.

Some rooms just go by last aggressive action regardless of river action though. This inconsistency of rules does at times lead to a battle of attrition where each player thinks the other should show first.

or alternatively he could have worked smarter instead of harder at the Youtube game and he would be setting himself up for a nice retirement. Trooper was the first person into the poker vlog game and is still only getting 7-8k views per video, it takes a shocking combination of being a dumb + stubborn person to be able to accomplish a feat like that. Rampage just started his vlog last year and is already getting 100k views per video.

I've never seen a room that consistently did left of the button on a check-though. I think this is a case where Bob is a bit behind the times - the concept of the betting lead has become more formalized over time. However, if everyone hesitates and the dealer enforces ANY reasonable policy, that's fine by me.

The typical trouble is when the betting lead was a bluff and they don't want to show.

No, someone else could have worked smarter rather than harder. It's not at all clear he's capable of it.

Sounds like the rooms you play at do not go by the standard rules or are inconsistent in the rules they enforce. Bob is not behind the times given this is also the current rule at the World Series of Poker:

Trooper trolls us by showing some editing and then changing the formula by starting with a rant.

I've been playing for 20 years and it is extremely rare to see a room that doesn't follow RRoP on this.

Then you've been exceptionally sheltered or not paying attention.

Trooper said they they are still together, but he misrepresented what people were saying. People weren’t suspicious because she got a job. She was talking about leaving town, avoided questions asking if they were still together and only said she wanted to keep her personal life private (Why not just give a simple yes and shut those questions down right there?), she hasn’t been appearing in videos, he has been ranting and looking angry recently, and she seemed to take some shots at him when she talked about wanting structure and health care in her life when talking about the changes she was making.

He was very reluctant to mention it when Molly left him and even seemed in denial when he was pushed into bringing it up.

So who knows? You think they could at least kiss in the video. They could show some proof that they are still living together (Has he done this? I don’t know). But instead we get the “She is too busy to see me” excuse.

It’s also surprising that Lady Trooper mentioned wanting to keep her personal life private but made several appearances with him when they were still together and even started her own vlog.

Every poker room in Las Vegas has the worst position show first when there is no action on river. It is only last aggressive action if there was an all in situation or bet/call on river.

Giggity

Trooper giving every reason in the book for why he doesn't play bigger than 1/3, except for the obvious - he sucks.

Some people actually believe Trooper when he says he is the most honest guy ever. They probably think his mask rants had nothing to do with politics despite his twitter being very political recently. I think he recently said he didn’t even care who was president. Sure, that’s why he quotes people like Candace Owens.

“Are you guys still together?”

Lady Trooper: “I like to keep my personal life private even though I vlog about my life.”

Didn’t his vlog used to be a couples vlog?

Btw, Jaman mentioned how he started vlogging recently and praised Trooper:

I think people still wouldn’t give him much action even if he showed a bluff or two. He only buys in for $100, probably plays tighter than most players, doesn’t look like one of the younger players; people aren’t going to think he is an action player. Even if he shows a bluff, people might realize what he is doing, which is showing a bluff to get action because he plays so nitty. He didn’t even 3-bet QQ.

The moving out of the house they were in could be a clue. I mean Tim doesn't bring much to the table when it comes to a relationship. He doesn't have much money or any source of good constant income. The big factor is he has no health coverage. I mean does anyone know much it is to have a kid? This is also assuming neither of them need a doctor for other things. Not to mention he dresses like he is in Junior High School and is in a rut. All these things are negatives when it comes to keeping a girl like her.

Funny thing is I’ve seen people criticize them for winning too much in their videos.

5 years. Zero progress.

I thought the best part was the ranting about not judging people and then he judged that young lady based on her SHOES less than 5 minutes later.

Tim is what Tim is, it’s never going to change.
