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.

Once again, the YouTube comments section exposes Diesel's true self.

When asked if he's talkative at the table or quiet...

"The focus of the channel isn't strategy or tells. But I'm often very social. Trivia, sports, tv, Vegas attractions." - Diesel

Ah yes. Nothing says a great fun table then quizzing people about random stuff. Also LOL as I'm often very social.

Hey Diesel. Being social is saying hi to new players. Asking where they're from, how long they're in Vegas for, what do they do for a l

As we've seen many times he has zero EQ so as long as he isn't physically assaulted he can only assume everyone around him wants more trivia

I think everyone agrees that Diesel has zero EQ. Reading through this list is scary as Diesel checks every single box. You can pretty much link one vlog that demonstrates each one of these qualities.

So funny Diesel brought up the hot dog cart at South Point. I wonder if he knows why the hot dog cart is only open for like 6-8 hours a day and not longer since it's almost always busy especially during a vlog where he can't understand why casinos would shut down poker rooms.

They both make very little profit and with the South Point hot dog cart, I think they actually lose a little money overall. Plus it would cannabalize their restaurants.

As smart as Diesel is, he's not a very deep thinker. It just proves that Diesel is uncapable of seeing things through other people's eyes and understand their viewpoints.

I’ve dealt to and played with el D and never once seen him act even remotely social.


OMC is done with poker. Looks like he gets $2245/month from Social Security and after all bills he has $406.03 left over so he has come to the realization he can't afford to play anymore.

Kids, that's why you set yourself up with multiple revenue streams for retirement. SS won't cut it to cover everything. Save and invest.


I thought he made some tiny amount of $/hour from poker? Or that was only because he added in his comps into the hourly figure?


The one time I saw him playing he was chatting up the green haired chick sitting next to him the whole time. They even cashed out at the same time. So his sociability may have even gotten him laid in the past year.

The money he listed as making from poker was very small and included win rate, promo money, and comps and other casino free play and such.

Next time you deal to him, ask him for some Trooper vlog trivia and watch him perk right up and be "social".

You could live like a King for $2245 per month as a Nomad!

The new Rio has rooms on Hyatt.com for $21 but with a free breakfast about $30-50 food credit and waived resort fees for Globalists on Sunday through Thursday. Get a to go bag and you will have food for the entire day and about $400 for total rent and do a no room challenge each weekend. Or Airbnb.

Wait-what?

Wait-what?

I should be more specific. Diesel has some intelligence but you can be book smart and do a lot of dumb things unintentionally.

He's a perfect example for Dunning-Kruger effect. He's at a level of intelligence where he'll overestimate how smart he really is. Dumb people know they're dumb. Smart people know they're smart but also know there's others that are smarter than them. Then there's Diesel at the wrong part of the curve.


Trooper's vlog allowed viewers to experience what life would be like if they ever indulged their flight of fancy and moved to Vegas.

Now Trooper's vlog allows viewers to experience what life would be like if they decided to sell candy at food flea markets.

Doesn't have quite the same vicarious appeal.


Yea, I watched some of the latest, they will be doing 3 markets a week now, and the latest they have to get up at like 5am to make it in time, and Trooper will have to cut Trooper Sunday a little short to get some sleep.

Apparently, they brought extra pralines and didn't sell out for once.

I can't believe it doesn't drive them nuts having to set up next to some of those loud generators running all day long at these markets.


this farmer market venture is too labor intensive for not enough money so I don't think it can last. I do think that this experiene will help them in a future business venture though, whatever that will be.

Maybe they'll be able to find a food copacker and scale properly if they get big enough.

His parents sure did a knock up job with him. The level of arrogance is off the charts. If his channel blows up it's gonna be hilarious how big his head gets. As it is, the ments he provides us are already legendary.

It's remarkable the pains he will go to just to say he's not working for the man. In his mind actually work a job like dealing poker would be the ultimate admission of defeat.

Every phase of their candy business is too inefficient to prosper enough to support two people in the long run.

No chance they will ever get big enough.
As their candy business stands now, scale is out of the question.

As long as Trooper has Christina's money to burn thru, he ain't never working for the man.

And to avoid running into poker vloggers.


Ffs this latest trooper video is 80% trooper selfie cam. Really getting a good sense of his skin pores, wow he has green eyes. Kill me now

Edit: Vegas Farmers markets look to be held in the the ass section of the parking lot. I didn't see any Farmers that I could tell

He never brings up his police officer pension. Seem's like Kris was a guy who always had his hand out for $ trying to be the next pooper.

Nothing about him strikes me as having "bad parents". Maybe they're just self-absorbed boomer types who never corrected him or treated him as an adult. "Aww that's our little rice ball" types. It's easy to write off his quirks and inability to understand a different perspective due to autism, but autism is a spectrum and I've worked with a few dozen people on the spectrum working in tech/data heavy companies.

Rice is an entirely different type of beast, though. His inability to comprehend a different way of life or perspective is getting scary. Even the most autistic people I've met in life have a level of self awareness that just isn't found in our hero.

it's quite possible that he didn't display those qualities early on while being in a structured environment or at least not to this degree

he did finish undergrad and law school after all, in his current condition I just don't see him being able to do it

Trooper tried to bring some chocolate candy to one of the markets, and it started to melt, and he's given up on chocolate treats going forward.
Only a matter of time till the Pralines and Brittle start to melt at the farmers markets.
