After 5 years of playing semi-professionally live and online, I've decided to move to a city near enough to a cardroom that I can play full time. My question to all of you is if you could pick up and move to a city with a cardroom within 30 minutes to an hour at the furthest away where do you choose? Vegas? Mississippi? Florida? Atlantic City?
Keep in mind i'm a 25 year old guy so a city with nightlife and not just a hole like ...Lake Charles Louisiana or Biloxi |

Vegas? maybe
Miss? no FLorida? hell no for the games AC? hell no for the area (maybe 30-60 minutes away) Go with a suburb of LA for the best game selection and most games available. |

Vegas or Cali.I've been considering a move to Lake Tahoe for a while, but I don't think they have enough action.

I'd choose LA if you want to live a semi "normal" kind of life without everybody trying to hustle you. I find the locals in Vegas to be a very different type of people.

The poker is pretty much limited to 1 room but it's good for the mid-limits and you can go to either LA or LV in an hour. Otherwise, I'd pick LA for the best action and game selection anywhere. |

LA. You'll have great card room to choose from and when you win you won't be tempted to blow it in the pits. Nightlife? LA Baby.

[/ QUOTE ] Maybe this belongs in OOT or the EL D forum but I find most of LA goes to bed real early and if they leave the cardroom late (let's say 11:00 pm) there aren't many places to go. What am I missing? ~ Rick PS Keep in mind in 53 and live close to the Orange Curtain [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

The poker is best in L.A., but you will have to weigh:
- Cost of living. L.A. is expensive. 1 BR apartments where I live start at $1500/month (I'm in a nice area of Orange County) - Driving. You will be driving 30 minutes to an hour to get anywhere. - Taxes. You will pay 9.3% state income tax here. Of course, there are plenty of other things to do (jobs, nightlife, etc.) here, but you may find Las Vegas or Phoenix to be a better place to live. -- Russ Fox |
