You really will find anything possible to rag on someone for.
Do you not see how walking is +EV lifewise for a guy that eats terrible + sits at a card table / desk a TON?! PLUS he's saving $ during the walk. You need to check yourself on your Trooper-hate...it's clouding your vision terribly.

Could you please quote specifically the 'hate' you says mr ducks posts.

I check in here every few weeks and it's the same ol shiat from that guy...he's been doing it for over a year. It's sad, weird, and creepy As phuck.

Yes he posts a lot, but it usually seems quite on point to me.

Trooper loses a heap of value being away from the tables for so long trying to send some kind of message to 'the man'

I think this is sarcasm

Always liked your videos, glad your back to uploading

16 2/3's hours a day for a month straight is pretty ambitious.

Thoughts on Trooper's latest:

1. It's slow because people made new year's resolutions to gamble less, and because of the shooter.

2. Trooper should have blurred the other players' faces at the poker table, and should stop making fun of mentally ill people on the streets.

3. Walks are good but complaining for a whole minute about $1.60 is ridiculous. It's also scarcity thinking. You don't have to worry about $1 because money is easy to get! Mitsi and Mr. Ducks are right; too-long breaks are -EV.

4. If he had just danced for one minute it would've been great. He'll dive off his kitchen counter with no health insurance for a few laughs, but he won't dance?

This whole thread is just one giant hilarious troll post.

It's quite easy to see actually.

Although the severity may not be there in each post (doesn't call Trooper names usually), Ducks makes up for it in volume and repetition. He writes reams of paragraphs attacking/criticizing everything Trooper does...even the most trivial things (like getting up from the table). I think it's been well-established that Trooper likes to take breaks from the table to get footage for the blog as he walks to deliver hats or get coffee or get water. Also, many people like to take breaks from the table every once in a while to clear their mind. It's not about $1 water vs. $3 blinds but Ducks just looks for any opportunity to hate.

.... and he's been basically saying the same sh*t over and over for months. That's a hater.... and that's a troll.

Hi guys. Haven't been looking up the thread that much so forgive me if I missed something pertaining to my question.
Any updates on 'Poker Priest '?
Can I safely assume that his move out to Vegas was a disaster?
Or, maybe he got abducted by aliens?
I'd really like to know.
Thanks guys!

Even before the move he didn't post many vlogs, but yeah - I wondered the same thing, plus was surprised to have seen nothing whatsoever (including no activity even here in the forums in weeks) from Pokermonk. Yes, I know he's not technically a Vegas vlogger, but he did post here for a while and had his share of fans, myself included.

Priest can be seen, fleetingly, in one of Neeme's (or was it Owen?) vlogger games at The Westgate.

I don't know which one, so don't ask.

Especially considering he was playing with a lady who thought KQ was a premium hand to snap call a shove with pre. You'd think he would want to maximize his playing time with her to try to win that money back.

These are the type of posts that degrade this thread and starts the bickering. This is what should be deleted and banned. There was nothing wrong with Mr. Ducks post. He was critical of Tropper's actions without being personal or mean and backed it up with a logical argument. Then you have trash posts like the one above derailing the discussion.

Spotted in Owen's vlog: Episode 48, Minute 11:58

You are welcome.

Most of the criticized posters in this thread tell it 'like it is'..whether it is good, bad, or indifferent.

They can post a dozen positive things about Trooper, or anyone, and as soon as they post something negative, they get labelled as a 'hater' or a 'troll'. smh

The truth can often hurt..

Well said

Couldn't agree more about Kraut. His videos just put me in a happy mood.

Fair points.

I do like that he seems to be using original music and putting the credits up and recognizing the people for their work. The music in his videos are an integral part of setting the tone.

That "Pickles" dude looks a lot like an AC reg from when I used to play alot (a few years back). Wondering if it's the same guy.

Also, lol for Troop always sniffing out the weed and making a face. If ever there was a human that needed weed it would be him and maybe Jeff Sessions.

Mr Bill Poker Vlog #6 is now published. Take a look and let me know what you think! Thanks!

I saw some of his vlogs a while back, I was surprised he quit what was it an 80K/yr job to play 1/2 and 2/3? And what was that hand he spewed his stack away while on his trip there (I forgot but I was saying to myself priest should have kept his job a lil longer).

if we set our minds and body, we can do it.

I'm only like 2.5 hours behind schedule, just finished day 3.

also running near EV (sub optimally since I assume my normal wr will be lower than usual due to the marathon session)

Thanks guys. Yeah, now that I think of it, he did making a couple of fleeting appearances at some meet up games.
Just wondering why he gave up vlogging.
I actually liked his stuff.
Did think giving up an 80k job to play poker, " live the dream", was a don k move.
Only for the reason that unless he's rolled higher stakes, there's no way he's making that at 2/5 or 5/10.
At least, I don't think. I don't play that high.
Also, he gave me the impression, and this may be a stretch of what I read into his character, that what he really wants is to be the next big name tournament pro, who's constantly on the tv poker shows like Poker after dark.
Am I over thinking this??

He takes a lot of those long walks at other times too. But I think he isn’t costing himself much when he leaves because he doesn’t win much anyway, so I think the walks are not a big deal. Poker is really more of a hobby for him anyway. He tries to act like he makes good money in poker but we all know he is just another 1-2 Vegas reg (not that there is anything wrong with that). But if a guy wins $5 an hour and he walks away for 25 minutes then who cares.
