Thanks, thought I would just try it because I've see others do it. I tried Facebook ads on free trial once, got a few more impressions. You are the guy in internet marketing right? I would appreciate a brief critic of my overall social presence.

No way Trooper could do a vlog like this.

This would involve storyboarding a vlog, planning, researching, going to new places, and actually editing together footage with a theme and style versus just walking and holding a camera and just connecting a few clips to make it 10-15 minutes long.

Trooper does his basic style of vlog and that's all he can do. It doesn't hurt to try something new but Trooper will probably give up 1/3 of the way thru and will never speak of it again.

So if trooper moved to Vegas for poker, but now doesn't want to play poker..? If the vlog is about the "journey", but the journey is "boring" what is the point of the vlog? In other words, what is he actually trying to accomplish?!

Also, why would anyone want to buy a Go Gamble hat from someone that thinks gambling is stupid and also boring.

Damn dude is frustrating.

Speak directly to the camera, eye contact, speak clearly, don't ramble, body posture, stop moving hands, stop generalizing, be comfortable & authentic, be personable and charismatic. Implement these basic speaking fundamentals into your videos, and you'll be fine son.

I think he is talking about his social media reach rather than how to improve his videos. Karl has already stated a few times he is just doing the Vlog to keep a record for himself and not looking to turn it into anything else.

I was more referring to social media presence, but those are good tips too. I am pretty socially inept but have been going to bi-monthly toastmasters meetings to work on those types of skills.

Must be just be, but I think trooper blogs are awful. Andrew is far better, yet you all seem obsessed with trooper. I just dont get it.

Social media is a full time job is you really want to make it. You need to shoot and edit videos, keep up your pages on facebook, instagram, twitter, etc. Interact with your fans and keep all the content that you are producing fresh and interesting enough to sustain and build your popularity.

He is trying to make enough money to pay rent, food, and expenses. He is actually accomplishing his goals which is a good thing. It's just that his goals are so low that most people don't consider these legitimate goals so they think he is failing.

It's like a homeless guy who's goal is to stay alive. People think he is failing at life but the guy just wants to wake up tomorrow morning so he's content with just being alive.

^And the homeless guy will say he is succeeding because he is doing what he wants to do. He doesn't have a boss telling him what to do and he doesn't have to live the way other people tell him to live. If you criticize the homeless guy you are an ignorant, jealous hater.

I think he still has a couple of things he wants to do that he is still struggling with. He clearly wants to win more at poker and wants to find Mrs. Trooper. But having his other goals be so low makes it harder for him to find her.

Dario Minieri, how pitiful is that.

Dario use to play millions of dollars worth of buy-ins each month on Pokerstars to playing $2/$5 in Vegas. I spent countless hours watching him play $10k heads-up matches on Pokerstars. Computer analysis of his game by his opponents destroyed him​.

I was gonna ask whether it was scarf/porsche Dario or the new Dario. Anyways, I wouldn't call it pitiful as much as it is something that is likely to happen if you go into a dead end profession like poker. When he first started there was lots of money to be made in playing poker. Nowadays, not so much.

The ladies love the Trooper. You should go to his Instagram and see for yourself. Trooper has more groupies than all the other vloggers combined.

As for today's video, I found it funny that Trooper said the game he was playing in wasn't that good...this after a guy bet flop, bet called a raise on the turn, and then bet $100 on the river with 22 on a 6789J board. BTW, lol at Trooper just calling river and not shoving his last little bit in there as well.

Trooper rarely wins in a "good game"

Even by Trooper's standards, today's vlog was strange.

Maybe it was a "Lucky You" scenario. Did he visit the pawn shop 1st?

It would get him more female viewers. Maybe he can find her that way. But I still agree with what you said.

Also, "wanting" to win more at poker and actually making a goal with targets and putting effort into it are two separate things. Of course wants to win more at poker, but is he willing to do something about it? Study, put in more hours, or even get a coach?
He believes things that can give him excuses for being lazy. He runs terribly and his game is better suited to the 2/5. So he doesn't need to improve.
