Trooper is the boy who cried wolf and the king of 'over selling and under delivering' when it comes to big announcements. He promises a major announcement next week and then it turns out a month later that the big announcement was that he got a new flavor frappiccino at Starbucks and no one noticed.

What's new? (Yes I see the irony of me saying this for the millionth time. What's new, right?)
Trooper evades any question or comment that he doesn't like. After a while of people asking and asking, he flips out and calls everyone a troll and then says that trolls don't bother him.

I actually think that he has replayed and repeated his excuse so much in his head that he changed the course of events as he remembers them so he actually thinks that he is in the right. It's a little scary how delusional and un-self-aware he is for an adult in his 40's.

Trooper admits that he used poker as a way to be lazy. Admits you can't be successful at poker being lazy.
Trooper's cockiness seemed to make Chicago Joey a bit uncomfortable.
This might well be true but he's got so little credibility that it's tough to take his word on anything. But if you think about how many people actually like him, there's probably a small subset that would be interested in a date with him.
Also, there's a ton of people going on dates in the world and lots of them are on Trooper's level/value in the world so there's got to be plenty of women who he could get a date and more with.
