Twatts out with a combined MUG and i want to defend myself against accusations vlog. Trooper97 channel.


by rodgethatnew m

really just that trooper is doing better than his poker adventures but so would working at McDonald’s so it’s not saying much.

Who here said otherwise? Who is it you are arguing against?

The only thing people here have said is that he is running hot, albeit from the limited footage he has decided to show.

In today's vlog he mentioned being up $200 and then in the next breath was down $200 in less than a couple of hours. That demonstrates that it's not as easy as clocking in and collecting $30 per hour. There's going to be lots of ups and downs along the way.

In America what happens to people like Trooper who retire with absolutely nothing?

What sort of support will he get from the government?

It depends on how many years, if any, a person has worked a 'regular' job (received a paycheck w/ ss+fed tax withheld, and an annual w-2). Otherwise known as paying into the system, a requirement for receiving benefits.

You must have 10 yrs+ of paying into the system to receive any benefit. Currently, the bare minimum social security benefit is $52 a month. Someone at that level would also qualify for Medicaid (healthcare), as well as food assistance programs. Housing assistance would also be available but can vary greatly state to state and even regionally within a state.

It can be quite bleak for those with no savings.

Yeah, and SS benefits are calculated off of your 30 best earning years. I imagine many of his years, he was not reporting tips (dealing and serving). YouTube sends out tax forms, so I'm assuming he's paying self-employment on that $$$ . I'm sure he never reported hat and coffee sales. Wonder if he ever reported candy sales once he went legit.

I hope for his sake that LT's inheritance was large and they've managed to invest most of it wisely. But, who am I kidding? No way they'd do that.

I think he retired when he left that dealing job at LINQ around 9 or 10 years ago.

It goes up by the number of years you paid in. If you paid in something for 30 years, you get a minimum of around $1000, and that would qualify you for a couple of hundred in food stamps.

Yeah,great early retirement lmao. Playing losing 1/3 poker for 10 years,torching off Lady T money with terrible decisionmaking in the candybusiness,eating garbage fried fat fast food basically every day,neglecting your health with horrible diet and zero exercise,his teeth is rotten++. And his latest accomplishment is driving around degening on slots 10-12 hours a day 7 days a week.

Like,can you imagine being Lady T mom or sister when you slowly realize what kind of clown/life loser she ended up with?

Tbf I don't think it would be something they slowly realize. Would take 5 mins tops.


Latest trooper blog - looks like the eventian event had 8 people, 2 of whom were trooper and Joe Ingram

Hard to understand why Venetian are bothering with this. Isnt Ingram way above playing 1-2?

I dont know what Venetian sees in these games,but for Ingram i guess its only about networking kind of goals or show his face out in the poker community. Regardless of what the stakes are.

Correct.

Assuming 30+ years of relatively low wage jobs, current ss bare minimum is $1093. And yes, still qualify for medicaid and food assistance.

But as meager as that is, the biggest issue is housing. Almost all federal/state housing assistance is going to take a percentage of that $1093 as token rent. Not to mention the living conditions.

That's why some prefer the tunnels or a rotted out rv in the desert.


Diesel's vlogs are awful and unwatchable but he has hacked the system.

He puts almost no effort and his vlogs are garbage quality yet he's approaching 4 figures a month in pretty much passive income.

He found a niche of haters and ppl down on their luck that will religiously watch his vlogs and they don't seem to be going away anytime soon.

Let's go Diesel!

I think you guys are giving her family too much credit. When I read his comment sections I notice people that have followed him for months or even years and they still think he is doing fine. Lady Trooper could easily have a family that is similar to those people. They are the type of people you see showing up to a Trooper Thursday.

Sometimes I see people support him when they really should know better. For example, the Venetian and Joey Ingram.


So I watched Trooper's latest where he mentions his backer's YouTube vlog. I watched two vlogs to see where he takes plays at. If Trooper is copying his threshold of plays, I hope Trooper always uses a player's card cause he'll need to rely on the comps and free play generated.

The good news is Trooper will be finding lots of plays available that other AP pass up on.

Nah,its pretty obvious at this point that Twatts for some reason doesent have a good relationship with her family. We can only use our imagination why that is.

For example i remember a vlog when he mentioned Lady T family was visiting in Vegas,but he would roam the strip doing other things rather than spending any time with them.

They might not like him because he is socially awkward and not the type to want to bother with family meetups. That’s true.

That’s a different reason to dislike him than thinking he is a jobless loser though.

But I’ll grant that it increases the chances they won’t like him, because it means there are more things about him they might dislike (they might dislike him because they think he is a loser, and they might dislike him because he can be socially awkward and that can make him seem unfriendly, or they might dislike him for both reasons which is even worse).

It is also likely that Troopers effective destruction of the candybusiness with his classic awful decisionmaking,and in that same process killing Lady T businessdream+torching a big amount of her money didnt make them like him any better.


the trooper is like a cockroach, no matter what happens he seems to survive

first he convinces a simple minded nice lady that he's the love of her life despite being a guy in his 50s that dresses like a teen skater and peaked as a restaurant waiter and perpetually broke

then he puts everything he and his simple minded lady has into a business venture that was doomed to fail from the start and uses the scrap value of the equipment he bought to fund a meagre bankroll in unfinished business

and now when he's down to his last few hundred dollars, he goes on a heater of a lifetime playing slots and 10x'es his bankroll

I wonder what miracle will happen once he hits a downswing and busts his roll?

Trooper doesn't have a good relationship with her family.
For example i remember when he mentioned Lady T family was visiting in Vegas ... rather than spending any time with them.

There was a time Christina's family came to Las Vegas, and Trooper pretended he was too sick to meet them.
When you don't have the class or courage to meet a female 'friend's' family, you are, without exception, a no class coward, and a no class loser.


Trooper 'has a tendancy to get tired of things'.
Not eating trash food, clearly.

We have some of the finest tunnels in the world for free housing.

If you refuse to work for the man or pay taxes, you would never soil your reputation and accept handouts in retirement.

lol you would think thats how it works. Ive found there are many arrogant conceited individuals who are too proud to work but not too proud to ask for and receive handouts.


What happened to lexopoker?
