interested in living in london?
 

i am now semi-certain i will be a poker pro. i have been thinking about this a lot and i think to make it as enjoyable as possible, living with 3-5 other people playing pro would be really good.

somewhere in london and a pretty nice place (but nothing too expensive). i had a look on foxtons and saw this place which is £225 a week each, 6 bedroom:

or for £177 a week:

can look for smaller places if not enough interested.

would involve playing loads to earn loads but at same time going out a bit for beers etc.

please reply on here if interested.

i was thinking january time possibly to start if anyone is interested.

edited to change month to week in first one, ty welshchip

Interested. Posted about this in the General thread last month. Would prefer centralish or northish. Islington, Shoredicth/Hoxton, Kentish Town, Bethnal Green or anywhere in central London. But I'm flexible about location I guess, as long as I don't need to worry about getting mugged stumbling back home after a night out.

this is what i've been wanting to do for a long time except somewhere in canada like vancouver or montreal. I don't think i'd be willing to go to london unless i felt the group of players would greatly contribute to my game. Vancouver is pretty much my favourite city ever, and if we could get 5 or 6 guys together, could live in each of these places for under $1500 a month

$5800/month 6 bedrooms - 5100 square feet

anyone down for a beach house in a Thailand island?

Re: interested in living in london?
 

I've been thinking about doing this as well but it seems like too much trouble.

mewse, what kind of Visa are you trying to get? Work visas are pretty tough to get, and for a poker player it would be close to impossible I would think.

Best possible scenario is if you get a tourist Visa and then get married to a UK citizen while you're there, but I don't know..

P.S. john kane, good luck finding roommates to put up with your excessive whining (you will need it)
