I know, I know. For some reason I felt like being confrontational. I don't know what came over me. There's a reason I usually just lurk and don't post. Sorry.

No worries. I have more frequent offender miles than you do.
However, I agree with TT, too. OP really doesn't need to play in B&M rooms at 18. There is a reason 18 is not legal. At 18, I remember, I didn't exactly have the maturity to play for anything but nickle/dime/quarter. Losing 2 buyins for me sucks. For an 18 year old, it would feel like a disaster. And the chances he'd lose it are much higher, because of experience, maturity, and emotion control.
I remember, too, wanting to grow up faster than time allowed. I couldn't wait to sit at the grown-ups' table. It led to horrendous decisions that I never was able to outrun. Still.
So, OP, prepare yourself, work and study and wait. It will still be here when you turn 21. I promise. The name of the game is patience, in both poker and life. The advice is free if you take it, and very expensive if you don't.
