It is just repetitive masochism. The only things more boring than Trooper's life are the comments of the sort of people so amused by his suffering that they feel the need to share their thoughts about it on the internet.
The best part about his videos is when he talks about hands IMO. He leaves out too many important details which gives viewers more stuff to speculate about, but he plays in a very strange way for someone with his level of experience. I think it's more fascinating than listening to just another TAG talk about his thought process. He does weird stuff and is capable of showing up with hands that make no sense in spots that many regs will never show up with. I think it's interesting to hear his thoughts.
When he doesn't talk about poker, then his videos are much worse IMO. And unfortunately the vloggers game is missing something when Trooper isn't there. His weird play would make it more interesting assuming he doesn't nit it up (maybe Boski could have put him on tilt by calling him a nit).
