[coloradoslim]

im getting tons of ims about costa rica.if you have any specific questions im still happy to answer, but let me save you time if you are asking about live action here. i know of only two or three card rooms and none that i would recommend.if someone knows better,please enlighten me. in my opinion if your thinking of supporting yourself here playing poker, online is your best bet.

If you wanted to be a hero you could start a thread like TheMetetron's thread about living in and visiting Argentina. I suggest it because I would find it very useful [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

disadvantages of the uk.
if your a torny player like me get used to waking up at 8 in the afternoon and playing to 6 in the morning and not seeing day light for weeks on end since your still playing on USA eastern time.

also for the people who say Costa Rica they should get used to living in 100% humidity first its a killer some days.

If you don't like the heat then Costa is not for you. There are 2 seasons down there. During our winter, it is their dry season, 100 degree heat and low humidity. Our Summer is their rainy season, still very hot, humid, and rains a few hours pretty much every day. It's fairly comfortable at night. I basically surfed from 6am to 10am every day, stayed inside from 10-4, then put in a sesh later in the day when it started to cool off. I spent 2 weeks there a few years ago in december, I fell in love with it. It's cheap by US standards, (expensive compared to the rest of Central America) very safe, the people are cordial and lots of them speak english, the food is awesome (get used to fish, rice, and beans) and if you're a surfer, the waves are good and consistent. I can't wait to get back. I know nothing about poker there.

One thing about Costa Rica is that the ability to play there in the future, atleast at Party Poker is questionable. Party seems to have very strict regulations demonstrated by pulling out of Asia recently.
