If you make at least Platinum, it is free.

I'm sure once they started charging for parking, security has been more lax in looking for people sleeping in cars. While you might have people sleeping in cars when there was no barrier for entry, once you put up those gates, it's a VERY select few (probably BikeKing and 1 other crazy guy) who either have status or pay $10 and sleep in their car.

I hope the game is still going during the WSOP.

Same as that. I don't even play poker anymore, but would happily dust off a few buyins, and get hammered at the Westgate.

I for one would move from Caesars to one of those venues if there was enough action.

Note: Not sure who has the power to alter the TCs offered whether or not it comes from the poker room, or Caesars Entertainment.

I would as well as it's easier to beat the tourist's that flock to Flamingo C.P. is way more reg infested but I been doing just fine in hammering the OMC's don't want to piss them off them SS checks are flowing my way hehe. But I play where it's easiest to attain Diamond without losing that much but for 2018 I am up over 3k but not of 100% poker winnings, I add in the free play I get from the rewards credits.

Are you saying Boski is down 3k on ACR? I find that hard to believe as every time I see his videos he's always winning or cashing if you mean someone else or yourself please let us know who your referring to?

Trooper gets stuck $900 again what a surprise. He made a great comeback tho to only lose his standard $500 donation.

At least he made like $50 in hat sales deliveries.

He would be better off playing slots.

He'd be better off throwing $100 out the window of his car and calling it a night.

He actually would be. If he put enough thru a slot machine to lose $500 consistently, he would be sitting on a way better amount of comps. He would be able to get way more comped burgers and pizza. Plus, he would probably be Diamond too and would be able to mooch some free chicken wings on top of that.

He might actually get some comped rooms in other cities too and take his show on the road again.

Been a while since I checked out this thread but the jealousy of Trooper seems to run strong still.

Also in the vlog, the guy doesn't leave the house the entire day yesterday missing Friday night games #nobigdeal

80% of the vlog was him delivering hats to people and letting them do shout outs in the vlog #nobigdeal

He flashed his whole cards 4 times on camera and showed no actual poker action #nobigdeal

He threatens to boycott another place...this time
Spoiler:
Starbucks
#nobigdeal

Have any of the other vlog episodes had anything different this week?

That’s kind of like saying “ I only got rejected 5 times at the club tonight. Anyone in my shoes would’ve be rejected 9 tines, but I’m so good that it only happened 5 times”.


The appeal of watching trooper videos (for me) is to hear his logic. It’s like things a person would say in an infomercial in the twilight zone.

No need to grind Diamond if he has a 7 Star companion pass.

Love the Starbucks boycott.

He pays with gift cards that Starbucks has already collected $.

I am waiting for an insulted barista to report him so he can be the first punter banned from Starbucks.

Or the boyfriend/husband/brother/father of one of the young ladies he insults suggests they discuss it.

We're seeing poker players now set goals that they chase on their vlogs.

I did some preliminary filming last year to vlog about my quest to reach Diamond, but after a terrible losing streak, I pulled the pin on that idea (although in hindsight, it probably would have been an interesting set of vlogs).

Trooper or BikeKing should consider chasing Diamond. It's basically one 9-hour session of poker a week at Caesars $1-2 (18 hours for every other Caesars property), but I think it would make a good set of vlogs.

Also, the perks in achieving Diamond would also make for some interesting vlogs for 2019. Free show tickets, free hotel rooms (cough cough BikeKing), free gift give-aways (like PokerKraut gets).

Maybe after the WSOP, these guys could chase Diamond. Could be a fun watch as we close in on the end-of-year and they need x hours to achieve Diamond.

Why isn't Troop Diamond if it only takes 18 hours a week?

Because they deduct his extended coffee break time.

Even with the lower rake would he beat the regs at Caesars? I think that’s why he plays in rooms like Excalibur. Game selection could be the difference between winning and losing for him.
