Serendipitous T&A has been a mainstay of TV and movies since inception.

In Texas, you'd get three times the food on that plate.... for the same cost.

No.

Top 5:

1) Trooper
2) Trooper
3) Trooper
4) PokerKraut
5) Viggo wtf come back! You can take the crown!

This is 100% true.

Your examples are the top 1% of pros and even these don't disprove his point.

It was said that Christopher McCandless was like that.

I just figured he's lying in a ditch somewhere. I'm hoping he's able to get back up.

Well ****, that's disappointing.

That prissy lil pretty boy doesn't know who he's messing with.

But by this logic,

It states that a person good at A(poker) is can also be good at B,C,D,E,F...Z.

So let's say B = Brain Surgery, C = Shrewd Businessman, D = Airline Pilot, E = Circus clown

So if A can cause B/C/D/E, Can B/C/D/E cause A, i.e, meaning can people in those professions become successful poker players? Is it reversible?

My head hurts

At least no one said that Troop could use the bra.

No !

I just checked a comparable place in Dallas, Pecan Lodge and prices are quite comparable. The only major discrepancy I saw were the sides in Kansas City were $5 rather than $3 each.

An investment banker could be a good trash man but that doesn't mean a good trash man would make a good investment banker.

He would need a manzier, bro, and no one has seen him shirtless (thank goodness).

Don't protest too much now

If that's three times the food, for one person, that explains why certain parts of the country are so fat.

Well, considering that for the past three months you've been continually putting him down by stating that he's the worst and that his vlogs are unwatchable, it's no wonder that he didn't mention you in his vlog. Not to mention the fact that when he asked you for some constructive criticism, rather than act like a civilized human being, you just completely ignored him and crawled back into whatever hole you hide in when confronted by someone man to man.

thinking about the doug polk's reference to trooper's vlog in his most recent upload. trooper needs to contact doug asap. he should sign on for training with upswing poker (polk, ryan fee run it). it's a win win for both. troop will improve and expand his fan base. and doug can prove over time the positive impact of his training site. this should happen. at no cost to trooper. someone please connect the dots for these guys.

I don't know about that. My trash guys have to lifts heavy trash cans. It requires some physical demands.


Anyway, thinking a successful player can be X,Y, Z is kind of oversimplified and linear. You got to look at it in terms of a matrix. Just like

A can be B, E, K, D
B can be A, D, F
and so on.

But that's looking at a macro level. Because we are all people with different backgrounds, circumstances, economic class, physical traits, experiences, etc. So instead of having A=A, you might have A1, A2, A3, etc.

Just like with people, there are different degrees of professions. So let's say B = family doctor, and B1 = neurosurgeon. So poker player can be B1 but not B2. But B2 can be B1 or poker player. Then you throw in motivations. Fascinating.

Glad you solved that. Now if you can just tell us the secret behind the rest of the country being fat as well.

Trooper isn't going to waste his time with that crap.

A few additional things I like:
- Live hands recorded
- Discussion of metagame/game selection/strategy beyond individual hands
- Playing in different rooms, with discussion of features/differences across rooms
- Chip porn, especially in tournaments
- Food porn
- Running good

This is a really smart post. So chance that it ever happens hovers around 1%. I'm not an Upswing member, so I can only speak with assumptions. I'm assuming Upswing might be a little too advanced for the average Trooper supporters that would spend the money for the membership if Trooper started plugging it on the vlog. I may be wrong though.

*Making the obligatory "It's probably too advanced for Trooper" joke now, just to get it out of the way.

My impression is that a number of successful professional poker players could also be successful at other intellectual professions. But I also think these players tend to not stay in poker full time for very long.

There are also professional poker players who would not be succesful at other professions, because something in their personalities would prevent it, or their skill are especially adapted to poker, usually live poker.

I think a large percentage of people in my profession (in academia) could be successful in poker if that's what they really wanted to do. Much more so than the other way around. But very few would want to do this, because being a professional poker player mostly sucks if you have other good options.

Live hands recorded makes every vlog more genuine and authentic. Not that I think any vloger is fabricating hand histories or anything, but it really adds to the vlog when we see hole cards and pots being dragged.

One big reason people get frustrated with him is he never shows an interest in ideas like that.

Do you plan on taking 2 years off anytime soon ?

Zero chance Trooper could finish any course that requires study or effort.

And yes it would be way too advanced for trooper.
He would quit out of frustration, or a misguided "I'm too good for this stuff" attitude.

not idea what level the majority of trooper's fans are. my guess is at or below his level. so those fans may not help doug polk build his training site. but a vlogger making progress and profits will help doug overall. like troop is his popular satisfied customer.

i've read itt that trooper not receptive to coaching. but this is something i think any pro will consider: improve your game and gain youtube subs.

it shocked me to see doug polk even acknowledge trooper. which means trooper is very well known. not only was it a needle. it was something he expected people to catch. meaning trooper is very well known in online poker world. and probably catches views from some pros regularly. even though his subs lower than neeme it makes me wonder if trooper is still much more well known in the pro poker player circle.

$5 each for a small side of cream corn and beans is Laugh Out Loud BAD !

Where I get my Ribs, sides are $5 each, but they are a full Pint, with Quart size sides between $7-$8
