Aw, aren't you cute.
LA is probably where you'd want to end up due to the number of people/tables. Anyway, good luck. You might want to talk to some people who have tried playing for a living before you make a big committment though. Small town home games probably isn't much of an indicator of anything. |

Two guys I know who are pros make their dollars at Sandia Casino in Albuquerque, NM. One often travels from Amarillo just to play there (hey SirFelix, if you're reading.) We also have Isleta, Route 66, and Santa Ana nearby, all with poker rooms.

I would probably take a look at Tunica MS. someone else with more experience can jump in and set me straight if I am wrong but the cost of living is low, you could eat really good for free.
I don't know if you could rotate through the three hotels with poker room rates for an extended period of time but I would think rent would be reasonable. |

I wouldn't sleep in my car at Tunica, at least in summer. The mosquitos are big enough to carry a can opener.

They have 3 tables and the rake is 5% up to $3 max. It is in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, so you have to get used to the weird accent: aboot, yah, gee, etc. It is a real happening town, especially if you have a criminal record and are trying to hide out from the law, and you are only 6 hours away from St. Ignace, another gambling mecca. Northern Michigan casinos spread excellent games such as Pan-Gin-Rummy-Pineapple-Fruitcake Poker and Go-Fish-Go-Hunting and other popular local games. Occasionally when the games are slow, you may have to stand on the highway with a roadsign recruiting players, but dont worry, people from the UP are excellent drivers and if they do manage to side swipe you will almost always stop and courteously try to move you off the road to somewhere less conspicous. -J |
