Trooper is simply too busy conducting business to play poker.

Honest move. No markup = average chance.

Less than 1 is a below average chance.

Reminds me of every punk kid in middle school/high school who would talk **** and pester people non-stop, then when confronted with an act of violence he'll pull out the "Touch me and my dad will sue your ass!" card.

Yeah I really want to watch his vlogs but I can't. Because he's in them. It's like he's stuck in the mind of a 6 year old. Seems to be even worse than years past. I think Rampage has taken over the spot of the high roller tournament vlogger to watch. Too bad Rampage didnt get his editor to pump out the vlogs as the Series is happening. Maybe next year.

Pretty sure Rampage can afford it. Boski is putting his vlogs out live during the Series and pretty sure he doesnt even have an editor.

He for sure gets more and more full of himself as the years goes by. It has to be so energydraining to be around him.

Yeah he doesn't even have time to look at the tournament structure or check what the entry fees and staff/dealer fees are before he sits down to play. I mean why would he, he's playing with other people's money.

Boski outsourced his editing quite a while ago. Rampage maybe needs to hire someone else during WSOP to pump them out more frequently. His **** is at least 30 days out from when they're filmed.

That's a lot of money to be giving away, if he cashes.

If he cashes hahahaha. I have 3% of Raymer and if I was to stake anyone else I would stake Pman over the Pooper. He simply doesn't work on his poker game or really understand tournament poker. He is just taking advantage of the idiots that stake him.

You guys are impatient with the long-term storytelling. Wait until 2030 when he catches up to the present day. In today's vlog, we get a tale of numbers and dates from 2015.

From his behavior, I guess DNeg's reuniting with his wife did not go well.

True

I don't know if the buy-ins were compensation from ACR or a prize.

You can deduct your gambling losses, but only to offset the income from your gambling winnings.

He Is a super donk so could just be his ignorance coming through and things that make him seem guilty to me with very cursory evidence are just that he’s an idiot. I also don’t really care if ever cheated in them or not, I wouldn’t think more positively about him or more negatively about him either way. I already think so lowly of him that whether or not he cheated in some $100 sngs or not doesn’t really factor in, but I think it’s certainly in line with his character to try to make a quick buck and not worry about morality, but I don’t really know much about it just what I read here and my friend who watched his vlog before I knew who he was, told me
In other words, no proof. Or even almost proof.

How would he make a profit if he lost? No markup. He's selling on StakeKings, who keep track of that sort of thing.

I actually think he's one of the very few poker 'vloggers' you can actually learn useful tidbits from ... airBnB + gift card combos, random casino comps, on the ground info on various live poker markets, insanely detailed logical winrates for full-time normal-joe poker pros grinding SSLNL.

If you are watching any of the 'vlogers' for poker strategy you are wasting your time given all the free and near-free modern resources you can efficiently study with.

I mean honestly how many poker 'vloggers' have actual years of detailed proven winrates other than Rice, Boski (played with him online for years in mtts), Trooper (pitiful winrate though), Neeme ?
And he's certainly not dumb enough to give out enough details to help people know how he plays.

If he sells more than 100% of his action (via multiple means/channels) he will make a profit as long as he DOESN'T cash.

When he is selling 80% of himself on stake kings (and it sells very quickly) it is pretty ridiculous at this point.

It's a fair question to pose, especially given his outreach with fans of his channel. It would be only too easy for him to sell pieces privately to fans who "miss out" on getting it via stake kings.

His attitude towards the events themselves lends credence to the notion.

1. Doesn't bother to even look at the structure sheet before sitting down to play.

2. Doesn't bother to check what the entry fees and staff/dealer fees are

3. Is more concerned with doing merch drops and sparkli pop runs before and during the events.

4. Justifies his non-cashing in events by saying that none of his investors would be content with a min cash. This makes no sense because at least they could use it to reinvest in future events.

You would think for someone like him he would treat these tournaments seriously as it's an opportunity to play for what could be life changing money if he actually binked one. But it appears he is just doing what he always does, which is trying to grind out his hourly nut.

Trooper has never been a real gambler and never will be. He hates variance, despite the image he tries to project. It's why he doesn't play tournaments. When he does he needs to be backed to the point that he can't lose. It's why he spends his time selling and delivering hats and lolipops. It's hilarious but what he really wants is stable income but hates the idea of a real job. If he could make $10 an hour to sit at the table and fold every hand that would be heaven for him.
