lol for the second time, he doesn't have a wife

And his partner doesn't have a job either so they can be together whenever he's not playing. He chooses to play during the day cos he likes playing with promo grinding nits and OMCs, just like his disciple Rice does.

They did say they got married on social media years ago. But whether it’s true or not, how long have they been together now? 6 or 7 years? Trooper did make it clear that one of his goals in Vegas was to find Mrs. Trooper.

They are so secretive about stuff so people are going to speculate.


also when i first looked into slots i watched a bunch of that guy's content and took notes

often i couldn't see the play so i would search online for answers and even ask others who i knew did it very seriously

either he knows some stuff that absolutely nobody else knows or he mixes in a lot of degenerate play

my guess is he's a gambling addict who first turned to ap to temper some losses and that eventually got replaced with youtube/patreon

always a chance he's just so much more sophisticated than everyone else but given that he's broadcasting "super secret plays that nobody else is talking about" my guess is he's just a degen who knows a few things

it's super common to see people go through checking certain machines so you follow them to learn and then you see them start playing a game where you can't see the play so you're trying to figure it out and then you see them go to the triple zero roulette game despite that there's a double zero right next to it

well yeah that's the point. I don't understand why anyone cares about and wastes time on bad Trooper videos

I watched one. Skipped ahead to the poker, then he talked about one hand after, and then stopped watching. It’s not like the other vloggers I usually watch from start to finish.


Do you think he sits out those $5+1 bomb pots at MGMG? Wait, who am I kidding, 3 whole big blinds per down, or 6 per hour?!? That's more than his win rate, so of course he sits them out.


The problem I saw with the double board PLO bomb pots at Venetian was it can take 10 minutes so a good portion of the down are these bomb pots. They can also dramatically shift the stack sizes.

I understand why people want to play them but for 1-3 NL, I think it's a net negative overall.

We need drew (troopers daughter) on here to chime in.


I haven't watched a OMC video for a while. He is living in Laughlin with is lady friend in a house and will drive all the way to Las Vegas for Trooper Thursday. He is also going to make a video about his time as a deputy sheriff.


Trooper and Diesel play OMC hours, while they still might do some bomb pots during those hours at MGM, never seen one at Venetian during the daytime.

He definitely is playing a lot of non AP slots. Huff n Puff is an example. I mean unless he happens to be a slot designer or technician and knows something that no one else knows.

He also said he's never lost more than $500 in a day. That's incredibly dubious unless he avoids all the longer volatile plays where you can get totally wrecked.


by Steve00007

Yup, was about to say this. And he would still get comps for sitting there watching that. It’s only a couple of times an hour he would need to sit out and he won’t lose any money sitting and watching.

Yeah Rice would love it actually. Earns comps/promos for just sitting there and watching, absolutely perfect for him.

Plus it gives him something interesting to gawk at and then report on Twitter and YouTube. God knows that nothing he actually gets involved with at the table is actually worth reporting on. Other that the tables/chairs/chips and drink dispenser and vending machine updates.

We need to know in his future videos if he ran out any Arizona Nomads living at the Kingman truck stops or by the side of the road in Mohave County, Arizona into Vegas or Laughlin to take advantage of cheap hotel rates.


The only time Troop is going to exceed 300 during a session is his cholesterol test.

Never saw this but is obvious LT family has disowned her.


I don't play big stakes poker but how big a jump is it from $1/2 to $2/3?

Troop appears to fear the leap.

It's already $1/3NL he plays at Horseshoe, I think there is only a couple places in LV that still play $1/2NL.

Only difference is $200 to $500 buy instead of $100 to $300. So, he can still do his nit $200 buy in, but the game plays a bit bigger so he will be much more at risk of getting all his cheddar in play.

My goodness it has been a long road.

Do you think he took a reduced cut to be allowed back?


Is Trooper on the strip early enough to get McDonald's breakfast? A vlog of him eating an egg mcmuffin would help break up the monotony of cheeseburger after cheeseburger.



OK now I remember him saying earlier why he’s grinding the Horseshoe for the free roll for the WSOP tournaments. I don’t even think he’s qualifying for the 15 hour weekly tournaments, he’s not playing enough hours.


The one important aspect that both Trooper and El Diesel utilize which pman doesn’t is time.

It pman actually does think in his mind that he is a good player then instead of smoking weed and playing videos games, he would go out grinding especially at night.

For trooper he only has the daytime since he has to go back home to lady trooper. Also the fact that the games are better at night, wouldn’t lady trooper support trooper playing at night if she was a good girlfriend?


lol there is no jump really to 2/3. I thought he was talking about a jump to 2/5 and was almost impressed. If he's talking about a jump to 2/3? Come on


2/3 is probably similar to Bellagio 2/5 where the max buy-in is only $500. At South Point and Venetian the max is $600 to start and it plays much bigger than the 1-3 games Trooper and El Diesel are used to. Horshoe has a $500 max.

I would be surprised if he jumps into a 2/5 game with a $1500 max. That might be bigger than his entire bankroll. If it’s 2/5 he plays it would be at Bellagio.

The thing with Pman is he has a losing hourly so he's correct to not play poker especially cash. With tourneys, his losses are limited to the buy in so it's easier to manage your losses.

Haven’t been there much recently but I saw regs trying to get fish to play them and occasionally a fish would sit out.


Bomb pots are a hustle by regs for sure under the premise of fun gambling. At a game I play in at aria they do a thing where every dealer change the sb makes up a game, a lot of times it will be kookooroochu or something idk how to spell it. Where flop you can either put in half pot or fold, then on river you can bet and raise to the size of the pot, you can do like the pot is 100, someone bets 20 you can only then raise to make 100. I think it’s much truer to the purpose of the game. There’s all sorts of games you can choose tho. Hard to get that set up at a normal public game but it is a much better way to go about it
