Trooper woke up, went to lunch, went to Costco and then played poker at Trooper Thursday until after dark!

He stated he was going straight home to go to bed because he was so tired from such a long day. He hinted he also might not do anything the next day to fully recover.

LMAO not doing anything the next day to fully recover. This is a guy that is boasting about the unfinished business comeback, and that he need to grind to build up his very small weak roll.

Then Trooper is proceeding by taking day(s) off for the smallest things like he has already retired.

He doesn't even leave Casa Del Trooper on Friday or Saturday due to recovering from Trooper Thursday lol.

Sunday to Wednesday he puts in a solid 2-3 hours of daytime poker against the promo grinders and OMCs. With a work ethic like that you have to wonder how their candy empire wasn't profitable!


To be fair today is the biggest day for Trooper in a while, the big MUG at V and he has 24 names on the list already. He will likely have 4 tables at least with him and Joey bouncing around to different tables. He better bring the full BR with him.


On the first Trooper Thursday reboot, a viewer commented that they were on table 2 and Trooper didn't come play nor say hi to anyone. I bring this up because I'm so perplexed why 1) Venetian hosted him and 2) why he even agreed.

Let's look at the facts. Trooper has horrific social skills and is only slightly less awkward socially than Rice. Is he really going to go around and schmooze with those playing in the MUG?

Trooper has zero respect in the poker community (not the knuckle-draggers who worship him in his video comments). Trooper Thursday has pretty much been populated by the same set of losers each week (Kidwell, Al, Josh, etc). There's usually only 1-2 new faces. Even Trooper knows he has zero respect in the poker community yet he's promoting this opportunity to ridicule him in a very popular poker room at a certain time on a certain date. This is much different than the off-strip, horribly-attended Westgate room.

Trooper will be expected to play despite having an almost non-existent bankroll. He won't be able to run after winning his first pot.

Finally and most importantly.... He's leaving Lady Trooper alone at night. When was the last time that happened?

I hope one of you are planning to attend and provide a trip report.

Shoes. He just bought brand new never-been-worn-before shoes at Walmart for his job.

Other than previously buying a belt, everything Rice owns is either second-hand, free, pilfered or a gift.

How the hell can you be Rice's age and not own a pair of black shoes???

I don't think Rice owned a pair of long pants until he got the poker dealer job at the Orleans.
He didn't own a belt until he got the dealer job at the Orleans.

Even when he's in NY in the dead of winter he's wearing baggy gym shorts.

He must have gotten the shirt off of someone who passed out drunk.

He loves free clothes. He's a Mets fan but we've seen him in random teams giveaway hats for months on end from baseball games he was able to see a few innings of.

Every hat giveaway from my own teams games have been cheap junk usually with advertising on it that go right in the garbage. Same obviously from teams I don't care about or in some cases hate.

Too bad most of those people are there for Joey and don't know who this dipshit is. Once they play with him once they won't want to play with him again.


diesel got screwed over again by people not going by the rubric lmao

Sure, i didnt think about that so gonna give him some slack for taking this particular friday off.

That being said, he always seems to have excuses for taking days off, for not playing solid hours, for eating garbage and so on.Always having excuses is a common trait for losers and underachievers in life, wich is part of why they are stuck in life.


Get this guys, someone reported a post, in this thread, for "unneccessary slander". Bahhhhahahhahah. It's like they don't even read the thread. Almost every single post in here can be construed as unneccessary slander.

Anyway, thought you guys might also enjoy the laugh I got out of it.

Legalese:
It's not slander if it's true.
I know that, and I didn't go to Law School for three years like Rice did.


by borg23

I recall a TBC story of when he was down to very little money sleeping on some grass outside of an office building and being woken up when he got soaked by the sprinklers.

Rice, upon hearing about this, would be jealous that TBC got a shower for free.


I don't know what that means, but it sounds pretty creepy. lol

https://youtu.be/lc1H3VHhIng?si=IusFHDNV...LOLOLOL Depaulo highlighting the 2+2 community and this thread while mentioning Trooper97 in his latest video. (Around the 15:00 mark)“Since I’ve been in the game, he has not improved his video quality or his poker game at all whatsoever in that time. And in the last 3 years despite putting out like 300 videos, he’s actually lost

Wow the part where he showed clips and mocked them was hilarious, especially the part making fun of the poker.

Depaulo is funny as hell. He should really be playing cash instead of wasting his time trying to be a gto tournament boy. His personality is super well suited to cash.

Trooper would be better off letting go of his bankroll lost and focus on tier points. There is no guarantee his girlfriend will support him forever and most women break up with men around the age range LT is due do disillusionment. Thus, Trooper needs to have a way to support himself via the Nomadic method and obtaining tier points as a back up plan.

Actually I think LT being so involved in his candy business probably strengthened the relationship. It doesn’t sound logical but she spent soooo much time on it. And if some speculation is true she put a lot of her money into it. She would have been better off financially getting a low paying job but she doesn’t want to work for the man either.

For her to do all that and back out of the relationship now and admit defeat could be really difficult. This is one thing she has in common with him. She doesn’t like to admit she is wrong. She even put out a video after it ended showing she was determined to stick by him and said an enemy of Trooper is her enemy too. She has been a loyal partner and sees him as the love of her life. And you guys are all her enemies.

I will be surprised if we don't hear a rebuttal from the Trooper.

I’m not even sure he knows who DePaulo is. He once didn’t even know who Rampage was. He doesn’t pay attention to poker vloggers or anything in the poker community that isn’t about him because he is focused on doing his own stuff.

Why does it appear every vlog contains a responce to something posted here?

Graton is in the SF Bay area. It's hard to imagine him creating his dream series at PHo and not being able to play in it.

And he should consider finding a better tailor if he's going to do the TD thing more often.

to be clear, this is not framed as being judgmental as i'm way more like the chainsaw than most, but there's almost no chance the infamously frugal kessler would splurge on a tailor - i'd lay odds that came from goodwill


More directional videos.


Can anyone get a live in the field photo of Rice employing his craft?
I dont normally play those rooms myself.

When he deals he can pitch with any hand. I believe that is called being bisexual on the felt .
