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.

********************
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.

I bought a new car in 2017 and last year I checked the trade in value, and it was worth more than I paid. lol

It was because of shortage of chips needed to make new cars. I haven't checked recently, so don't know if it's still high prices, but probably is.

I bought a 2012 Honda Accord in 2018 and it’s worth the same amount I paid for it right now. Used car values are crazy right now.

Proof that Diesel is on the spectrum


So at MGM, Diesel played a little over 29 hours and won 41.5 hands so about 1.4 hands won per hour. No wonder he doesn't want to share daily results. There would be so many two figure results that his win rate is practically negligible.

I guess this answers the question about health insurance. Since we know he files taxes on his poker earnings, he qualifies for reduced or free healthcare.

You would think, but no lol (maybe new in the past few months).

I had a huge argument with him in his comments a few months ago pointing out that because he makes below the poverty line he would qualify for Medicaid and a ton of other welfare programs. He had completely no clue. Pretty sure he just didn't have insurance.


With all of his very effective exercise and high quality diet, I don’t know why he’d even need it!

Agree no chance he has health insurance


Diesel grew up in an upper middle class household, plus his parents currently cover his healthcare and more. He doesn’t need to know about government safety net programs because his parents are his safety net.

Also, just guessing but parents of an Ivy League student are probably snobby enough to not want their kid on Medicaid etc. programs because they think it carries some sort of stigma.

What about the stigma of their son got a law degree and then chose to play the lowest level of poker earning less than a fast food worker? Then putting videos out for the whole world to see documenting how he beat the system. While any sane person can see the contrary. Any friend of the family is thinking “what the hell happened to that boy…he had such a promising future”.

From what he says his parents don't know about the vlog. If they did maybe their attitude to what he his doing with his life would change

Is this a gang sign?

He wins <6% of hands per hour and from his narrative never gets paid off with a monster.

A profit is not possible.

So,like why doesent his parents knows about his vlogs?

I mean he is a fulltime travelling pokerpro, lives a big portion of the year in Las Vegas, he claims he makes more money than he even needs so he is living the dream and should be proud to show this to his parents.

Oh wait......

Because of his obvious impairment, they probably have set up a trust to support him when they are gone.

If they don't know what do they talk about when he visits them for two months a year?

Probably some alternative version of what Rice says he does and how successful he is that doesn't involve having a YouTube channel


My hourly includes $10-20 an hour in free drinks when I play.

It would be very inconvenient if the insurance was in NYC and the primary care doctor is in NYC and he is in Nevada most of the year.


It would be hard to believe that his parents haven't found out about the vlog even if he never told them. Surely they have some friends and them or their kids maybe stumble upon them or get told about them and mention it to his parents.

In a recent vlog he mentioned that his parents are retired, I am guessing they are under 65, so that adds to the theory of them being well off and somewhat supporting Diesel or eventually having some kind of trust/etc.

Like how George got found out and his parents told. 5-minute mark.


I don't know about anyone else, but I'm thrilled Trooper finally got around to telling us his 'Top Secret Live Poker Tell'.
Knowing this 'Live Tell' could have a profound impact on my poker win rate.

Thanks Trooper 👍


We watched Timmy for how many years? Made us think he was a poker player when in reality he was just another wannabe that did nothing to improve his game or rise up in stakes. All the while making us the bad guys. Calling us names, outing sexual predators that dared question him? All his usual BS which was all for one reason. To get more clicks on YT because he refused to go to work. Now he is some candy guy? Selling at flea markets?

Tim take a long hard look at your life. It's no too late to get a job dealing which is one of the few things you are good at. Lose your attitude and you can be floor in a few years making a good living with the ability to go to the doctor and dentist and fix those horrid teeth. So when you are 70 you have some retirement and don't have to eat cup noodles 3 times a day.

Give me a break already with this buffoon.

Roast of the day,lol you love to see it.


So, he won 1.4 hands per hour over 29-hour sample. That sounds pretty tight.

If you notice, Trooper didn't give up his 'Top Secret Live Poker Tell' until he retired from poker.
He didn't want to give up his edge I suppose.
