Classic Trooper. I guess Trooper was living in Vegas circa 2009 and when he was moving away he bought a storage unit in Vegas. He continued to pay $58/month for over 3 years as his stuff sat there. Apparently this included a brand new bed. Too bad nobody told him that a U-Haul would have been cheaper and would have allowed him to continue to sleep on a bed.

I wonder how long he was in Vegas and why he left.

Trooper's own words about those shots of cash on the bed, "It looks like a drug bust."

It sounds like even he feels that the money is connected to shady business practices when he connects it to a drug bust.

If anyone is curious as to who the player was that stayed with Trooper and Harry on their Tunica trip, it was none other than Cooper, the tournament grinder we've seen in Trooper's vlog recently.

1.) I don't think you will see Harry and Trooper playing together at the Rio

2.) Harry can't be too pleased with Trooper.

3.) Trooper does not think things out well.

4.) Trooper has a lot of enemies.

5.) Trooper is his own worst enemy.

Best part of the troop flashback is when they won 10k the first time around the 3 minute mark, he says yeah we won 10k and I ran kinda cold... yeahhh even back then troop had the built in run bad excuse

I just watched all these old videos and the overriding trend I noticed was that Harry was generally "running above expectations" and Trooper was "running bad." According to Trooper that's why they were splitting profits..to spread their variance. Trooper often seemed to be in an agitated state about his run bad. He also admitted to playing bad when tired and yet when it came time to count the money he only talked about running bad.

It came across like Trooper just attached himself to a better player just so he could make more money. Can you imagine how good Trooper would be doing if he and Neeme split their profits 50/50?

What is weird is that Trooper and Harry look so alike in the video. If they sat at your table, wouldn't you think they were brothers or something and might know each other?

I'm surprised that Trooper didn't give Harry some TrooperWear gear when he showed up, especially if his luggage was delayed in arriving to Vegas. Maybe Harry didn't the $60 cash on him for a shirt and hat combo? No friends and family discount for his poker partner?

What are you talking about? Trooper brought a lot to the table in the 50/50 deal. Who else was going to document their plan together and show the world how they were such awesome 50/50 partners grinding the sit n go's in Vegas, Tunica, and Biloxi.

If it wasn't for Trooper, no one would know that Harry was half of the best single table SNG duo of 2012 at the WSOP! What good is all that money for if everyone doesn't know how you got it?

Harry should be thanking Trooper for building his brand in poker. I bet Harry gets recognized like crazy starting tomorrow at the WSOP tables. Unless Trooper steals his spotlight sitting at the same table...

I think you meant splitting losses ?

Doubt Neeme could play good enough for a "profit" to be split

He has said before that he vlogs all his sessions now though he doesn't always give exact dollar amounts for the wins/losses like troop does, sometimes it is done from a slightly buzzed memory like the recent vlogger game where he had a few drinks. His first video back after #eyegate I think included mentions of 2 sessions? One he didn't actually record/vlog at the beginning then the vlog session? I would think someone could go thru his videos and graph it like they do for troop if they really wanted to.

I can't wait to see how he handles this. Will he pretend it's not an issue and ignore it? Or will he get really angry and call the people that disagree with him idiots, haters and trolls?

Many of his fans will dismiss the issue and think it's no big deal, and think he is an innocent victim that is being trolled. But he has been really annoying some fans lately with his complaining. As time goes by he continues to have more and more haters.

Trooper comes across as so unlikeable when he tries to defend himself so I hope he takes that route.

Roast King must be loving this.

Also looks like Trooper was proudly promoting a new tshirt on his twitter recently, so I'm expecting him to promote it in some videos soon.

Currently working on Neemee results. Still have a ways to go but no doubt he is in the the black since his vlog started in October 2016.

Not sure if he vlogs all his sessions, seem like 3 vlogs a week on average which is not many sessions for a full time player.

Your posts likely wont be allowed (and this one will get deleted) since you have a 2017 reg'd account.

He has said in multiple interviews, and his vlog, that he cut down on his poker hours to make time for the vlog and that he vlogs all his sessions (sometimes his vlog may have more than 1 session though). He doesn't always give results down to the exact dollar in text on his video like kraut or troop does but that should make little difference.

because too many banned users/trolls/gimmicks were creating new accounts to post in anything related to trooper

Yeah if you want to troll this thread you need to be dedicated and buy aged 2+2 accounts.

hate this expression, but i think the new colluding thread in NVG may have finally "jumped the shark" on Trooper criticism. I mean, i get it. i'm sure they were colluding, but i think it's gonna be considerably less fun to nitpick Trooper now.

They just soft played each other and split profits/bankroll....5 years ago.

The fake outrage is pretty eyeroll

Thanks for the effort but I think it is pointless because I assume that Neeme plays more often than he blogs (he only seems to vlog once a week). So you can get a w/l record for the sessions that he's vlogged but that won't be the whole picture.

Edit: Oh people are saying that he only does play when he vlogs now. When did he start doing that?

I see you've had a sudden change of heart about Trooper because of #CollusionGate . Why not at least wait for his video response before jumping off his bandwagon?

Mr.Ducks seriously needs a Fing life. I truly feel sad for you and a couple other posters in here. I've seen on TV shows where people are Obsessed and thought it oh it's just a show but man you guys really do have no life, and the obsession is scary. You guys are creating fake 2p2 accounts and twitter. That's when you know you have no friends and need a hospital visit maybe???

1. They did it multiple times (Vegas, Tunica, Biloxi)

2. They tried to do it this year at the WSOP but were unsuccessful in their first few attempts but I'm sure they will continue to try unless WSOP actively stops them

Harry would be smart enough to avoid sitting with the plague known as Trooper.

With Trooper, you never know what this i***t is capable of.
