Apparently ... and this is unofficial .... One of the dealers at Westgate was not happy her image was being shown without her permission. He might have to blur her out or delete the videos she is in. She was not happy with him at all.

Pokerkraut blurred/put a over the face of one of the dealers in his two vlogs from Westgate.

apparently she didn’t read the sign posted behind the coffee and cookies

The alternative is dealing to 0-1 tables instead of 5-6.

So these people that are going to the westgate are there to take troopers money
Right?

I mean trooper has a personality of a rock

Rock meet boulder.

Somewhere in-between

Will I win another tournament?

i would be shocked if the westgate is actually giving them money for playing there.

Brad Owen said that the Westgate is paying him "a little bit of money" to host the game there.

Podcast starting around the 29:45 mark.

Is she really that embarrassed about being a dealer? Maybe she should get a new job.

I believe Trooper did too. However, I don't believe he blurred anything in his 360 vlog. Maybe he forgot to blur her or was too lazy because he doesn't edit the 360 vlogs.

You're crazy.

In a thread full of dumb posts this stands out...

You think it's a coincidence all the bloggers are hosting games there?

i think theyre doing it to increase viewership on their u tube vlogs. it will end up in them getting more income with utube. the casino certainly wouldnt need to pay them. in fact they should be paying the casino for the privledge of letting them play and film the dealers. the dealers shouldnt object either. its not like theyre filming pornos

You can succeed, carving the right niche in this town. Westgate is onto something. The games seem fun, which is void in a lot of rooms on strip..

I'm really curious how much they are paying him and based on what criteria. Is it by the number of tables running over a certain amount of hours or is it just a fee per night? Trooper gets a lot more people than PokerKraut, so how much more money does he get?

To be honest, Trooper would be down $875 over two sessions in pretty much any other room in town so you have to look at the marginal cost. At least he's getting more Starbucks cards, selling more hats, and getting something from the Westgate so he's definitely better off hosting a game there and losing almost $1K than just losing it somewhere else.

Definitely a bad trend but the sample size is too small to tell how people will react to it. If it gets worse and worse than it will become like his new mailtime video where the views were always horrible.

It's similar to mailtime in that it take zero effort on Trooper's part as well. Mailtime was minimally and eventually completely unedited and involved no work and that is why Trooper loved putting those up. He always looks for the easiest route and for a shortcut.

While 360 videos are new in the poker vlogging space, putting up 30 minutes of unedited video of a bunch of no names with no personality playing doesn't make for fun viewing. Those videos will die out unless Trooper begins editing them into something more watchable.

But you gotta understand that he's putting them up in addition to his usual vlog so it's an extra couple thousand views for him with zero to minimal effort. He'll keep putting them up until they get as bad as mailtime and result in too many thumbs down versus number of views.

While everyone has their own tastes, I'm pretty sure that Molly is considered better looking than Kelly by a majority of people if compared side by side without looking at their personalities.

If you are just going by looks, Molly is better looking than Kelly using society's standard measurement of hotness in 2017. I don't think this can be seriously argued but there's more than just hotness when it comes to people.

I don't think so. My guess is that this game plays bigger than what Trooper is used to. There are bomb pots, probably frequent straddling and probably a number of players that generally play bigger. Plus, you have to take into consideration that Trooper feels obligated to not leave the game early as he frequently does normally. LIke, in a normal game he might play 4 or 5 hours while taking frequent breaks throughout. In this game he could play 8 hrs while likely taking very few breaks. When you play longer sessions it becomes more difficult to remain focused and make good decisions.

You don't think this new off-strip poker room that most people don't even know about would like to get more customers? Did you watch Trooper's first westgate vlog? He filled the entire room. If he could do that every week they'd be more than happy to pay him to do so. Of course, he can't though. I'm not sure how many tables ran this 2nd week...looked like just a few. If the vloggers get crowds similar to what pokerkraut got then sure I think the Westgate will end the relationship. However, if a vlogger is able to fill the room that is money well spent.

They have to be paying troop something, maybe $200 per night?

The 3D is not a bad idea, but without all hole cards and/or interesting people in the game, after the initial novelty effect wears off, it's just not interesting enough to watch. It needs some enhancement for this to take off
+1 to Kelly

Enjoy watching your tournament videos, thanks for sharing.

Isn’t Molly 15-20 years older than Kelly?

Not to mention the ‘baggage’ of having two rugrats..

Kelly is 10x what Molly is. Molly looks fun is very attractive but 2 kids and 40 compared to 0 kids and 25 is not even a competition. Plus Kelly is good with her hands.

15 years comes with a lot more baggage then just 2 children as well, all those #*@*ed relationships, etc.

A young mind is worth its weight in gold in this situation.

I think they're talking about "hotness" instead of marriage material. Geez, who wants to raise another man's child, let alone 2? Talk about -EV.

LOL, sure... if you're into awkward-looking, popeyed, fake titied, middle-aged nerdy chics with some baggage
