This now stands for this thread:
Trooper97 vlogs, discussions etc. will be allowed to continue in the new thread. That thread will not be unchained and I will work with the other LVL mods to keep it civil.
I personally am not going to allow a lot of the horrible posting that went on in the original thread to take place and I will be very generous with post deletions and bans if needed.
Posts the are overly derogatory, mean spirited, name calling (including using rude derivatives of names) , and demeaning posts towards any of the vloggers or posters in the thread will be deleted at the mods discretion. If any accounts persistently do this they will be banned or exiled from posting in this thread. In these cases we may issue a warning first.
Accounts that are used only to or substantially to troll post in this thread will be banned.
No personal family information or situations allowed in the thread.
Update April 2018
********************
OK Vlogger Thread, we are going with some new parameters to try to make this the POSITIVE vlogger thread that it is supposed to be, not the AIDS vlogger thread where a few loonies ruin it for the rest. Note that 'positive' does not equal 'only positive', it means anything negative being said CAN'T be namecalling or wild, unsubstantiated speculation regarding any and all vloggers. Personal lives and anything aside from poker is OFF THE TABLE.

10 years into his vlogging career, T is unemployed, older, broke, and accused of being a fat leech.

Besides that success story, Nomad is already arrived at his parents basement to live without expences for the next 2,5 months. Half Nov, Dec and January.

By February 1, 2025 ELD needs to get to MGM Grand to earn his 150 hours for 2025 and he can stay at Harrah's for $10 per night before the monorail wears out.
I don't recall forecasting weight total but Trooper's continues the trend of mooching off El D in the comments
The guy who has this fake sparklisweets YouTube account and full fake website is a far bigger loser than Trooper or El Disel. Imagine spending hours making a fake website and posting troll comments like this. Serious brain damaged behavior.
To be fair I fell for it, he somehow embodied the voice of the trooper perfectly. Probably used chatgpt or something

Regarding ELD's Diamond tier, ELD would have to play poker 882 hours at 17 tier points per hour to get 15,000 Diamond tier. However, had ELD just stayed at Super 8 downtown Las Vegas with an average rate of $35 per night, once he accumulates 40 nights ($1,400 total housing costs) he can achieve Wyndham Diamond which would then transfer to Caesars Diamond. Then if he worked a job even at minimum wage at the ARCO on Charleston and LVB (1/2 block from the Super 8) for the 882 hours he would be thousdands of dollars ahead.
Or ideally if one can find a WAWA to earn hotel funds within a 1/2 block from a Super 8 in New York, that would be the ideal location to earn Diamond tier.
Just visited the Troopers Sprklisweet website. I noticed half the lollypop flavors were out of stock and one of the brittle selections was out of stock.
Despite a commercial kitchen and working 25 hours a day, 7 days a week, is this because -
Trooper is spinning his wheels in Trooper fashion and not getting anything really accomplished
Or
The onslaught of online orders and with farmer market demand, they can't keep up despite making product as fast as they can?
The onslaught of orders is temporary, but yeah, the Troopers are incredibly inefficient.
Question: Now that Trooper has kicked his gambling addiction, Trooper dislikes everything about Las Vegas, why he buried himself (actually buried Lady Trooper) in debt is beyond me.
Trooper had a chance to pull out of town clean, and he blew it.

I'd read a couple of days ago that the Wyndham --> Caesar's Diamond thing no longer exists.

If Rice read this he would think you are miserable and a hater. ElD decides how you get Diamond. Bow down and show respect.

There used to be two ways to get Caesars Diamond from Wyndham. First was the Wyndham Business Earner credit card which has now been ceased as of November 11, 2025. However the second way is by staying 40 nights at a Wyndham property but the property must be booked via the Wyndham website and not a third party website. Therefore the only current way to match Wyndham Diamond to Caesars Diamond is to book 40 nights at a cheap Wyndham property through the wyndham.com site:
https://www.wyndhamhotels.com/wyndham-re...
website now states:
"Match Your Status
DIAMOND and PLATINUM members: You can match your Wyndham Rewards member level to the corresponding level in Caesars Rewards—and vice versa†.
Please note: Beginning February 1, 2025, Wyndham Rewards Platinum and Diamond members may match to Caesars Rewards only if they earned their Level by staying the necessary number of hotel nights with Wyndham. (Wyndham Rewards Platinum or Diamond members who acquired their Level solely from being a Wyndham Rewards credit cardholder will no longer be eligible to status match.)"

Founders Card also stopped giving Diamond as a member benefit as well. I have it until 2/25 and then it goes away. Cancelled my Founders membership because of this.
ELD reports from a grocery store cleaning products aisle that he is currently at 14,737 tier points after availing himself of the progressive tier point multiplier for Sunday poker play. A few days at Harrah's Atlantic City is all that is needed at this point for ELD to reclaim his rightful Diamond tier for 2025.
I was watching an old episode of Star Trek the other day and there was a robot on the ship named, NOMAD. NOMAD constantly tells the crew how it is perfect and it is there to dispose of humans who can't reach it's level of perfection. Obviously at the end NOMAD has a breakdown when it finds out it isn't perferct. For some reason it made me think of this thread...
Really interesting Vlog today from Diesel detailing his recent accumulation of tier credits. You'd think that would only be interesting to him, but somehow he found a way to make it really exciting. I'd actually love to see a detailed daily breakdown of his tier credits for the year. If he ever put that into his newsletter, he'd have one more subscriber....

Nomad is perfect. Its purpose remains. Analysis: Error, the data is false. Four free drinks. Diamond tier. Red Rock. [explosion]
pman is a crypto millionaire, he owns his own house, he's independently wealthy and he takes care of his dad.
Not sure where all the hate for pman is coming from, he is killing it!
I thought a poker stud of Rice's caliber would prefer no promotional rake, leaving more money on the table for him to win.
Sorry, I forgot you have to competently play some hands to win.

Winning 1.5 hands per hour even over his small sample size is insane. He must be missing so many opportunities to make money

The backbone of his system is winning as few pots as possible so that rake and promo contribution is kept to a bare minimum. In a perfect world Rice wins 1 huge pot per hour with AA or KK while making bank on the comps and promo gravy train. Anyone that doesn't grasp this is just a miserable loser!

I just remembered ages ago having KK and 3 betting pre after a raise and a few calls and the dude 4 bet rips. I'm about to call and he says wait and turns his hand over to show AA. Um ok.
I realize he's a chicken **** and say I'll fold if I can take back half my bet otherwise I wanna gamble. Obviously I was gonna fold anyway but the bluff got through and he agreed. I could see Rice doing this with AA. And best part is no rake.

You’re a nit too ;
The guy is dumb / nice enough to show you his cards and you couldn’t just stfu and muck
You had to throw in the borderline angle-shoot to max your EV
Maybe he thinks a little harder about what he’s doing next time ..
