Grindathon Round 2

I’d rather talk about who can do more pushups than who lol. Can anyone do less than 7?

Troop also said that he read the book. Eventhough he still has leaks, I wonder how long ago he read it and if it helped him any. I'm guessing it's a low limit book. Off the top of my head, I'd guess it's Jonathan Little.

wow

That might be the least informative vlog Ive ever watched.

Good job on the 80 hrs in a week, PA. That's a lot of hours. What limit did you play and how much were you up or down at the end of the 80 hrs aside from the $400 bonus?

What is the number on the most? 40?

Maybe he meant 7 sets of pushups.

No freakin way he can only do 7. Thats sad.

Trooper has zero muscle tone..7 sound about right

Thanx. 1/3 NL +700, not much but better than losing.

How about Doug Hull?

He wrote a book a few years ago and I believe he lives in Vegas. Also recently he ran that "Grinders Cup" thing PokerKraut mentioned in one his vlogs.

I'm in my mid 40's and have lost 37 lbs since October 2017. In fact, I've lost too much weight and have to gain some back. It's not rocket science, you dont have to use an app on your phone to count calories, you dont have to deny scientific articles, and you dont have to go on some hardcore workout regime. You just have to have common sense.

Right at average for a middle aged American? That would mean he's borderline obese.

Definitely. How often do you plan on playing 80 hrs a week?

That sounds like a better guess.

Maybe he did them after the bench press, which would weaken him for pushups. Don't remember him saying when in his workout he did them.

Looks like the promotion is still running through April so I might try again sometime this month. I prefer playing closer to 30 hrs a week and actually having a life aside from poker.

Less then 200 at 5 10 or whatever is not borderline obese.

It's probably Phil Hellmuth promoting his newest book #POSITIVITY. Phil has been working really hard promoting the book across the country. He also already appeared in Brad/Andrew's vlogs promoting his book during the 2017 WSOP.

If Phil Hellmuth is there he will probably just stay an hour or two but the place will still get packed.

Trooper said 90% chance. He really shouldn't announce it unless it's 100%. But since he gets money from the Westgate for each person who shows up it's definitely in his best interest to hype the game as much as possible.

Are you saying that Trooper has no chance? That's just rude!

Trooper will spend hours downloading the perfect app, determining exactly what type of meat to select in the app to make sure the #'s are accurate, buying a food scale to make sure he eats 12.7 oz of chicken instead of guessing roughly 15 oz, and will spend multiple days watching YouTube videos and reading articles about weight loss only to give up after 2 weeks and start eating whatever he wants...because he's a grown azz man!

It's always fun to do short term challenges that push you in some way. The 80 hour challenge is really a big push and it's amazing that you completed it. I would have loved to see a video recap where you pretty much spend 30 seconds after each session recapping how you played, win/loss, and total hours.

Maybe just do it on Twitter or something so that we can sweat it with you if you do it again this month.

I'm sure it gets stressful when it's day 7 and you have 71 hours but are totally sick of grinding such hardcore hours but know that you are so close and make that final push. That would be awesome for a vlog!

I was actually thinking the same person. I know it's a stretch but it would be a HUGE win for Trooper to pull such a big name for his vlog. I'm sure if he thumbnails it correctly, he can make it his most viewed video ever.

PH did play with Brad Owen and that was his best viewed video by far. I wouldn't be surprised if PH would do it either. Trooper's entry level poker playing audience would worship PH, if they love Trooper as much as they do. I'm sure it is a big win-win for both guys especially if PH has a new book coming out.

I really hope that he gets someone good because it would be sad if it's a complete no name or if the person doesn't show at all and Trooper once again ends up bigging up something in his vlog only to disappoint for the millionth time.

Troop can read?

There is no printed material, other than on the over-priced organics, in his abode.

I didn't know Molly wrote a book.

Lol

Idk any grown ass men who can do only 7 pushups

7
Siete
Seven

And he put it in a youtube video

Yep, thought about doing some live updates, may actually do it if I go for another personal record of volume in a week.

Sal just mentioned who the guest is going to be, I actually read his book like 7 years ago when I read every poker book at B&N. It was more interesting than expected.

Interesting. I wonder how Troop connected with him.
