Tampa or Canada

[FlyingCarpet]

Tampa cardrooms are very soft but the $100 max buyin sucks. Most rooms spread 1-2 and 2-5 with lots and lots of big multiway pots. Not unusual for 1-2 tables to see $300-$500 pots fairly often and for 2-5 tables to see $700 pots.

I recently moved here from SoCal and given the choice, I'd check out the CA indian casinos since they offer much better buy ins and bigger limits.

Morongo is definitely 18+ and you could try Sycuan, Barona and Viejas ( all in San Diego area unless they burned in the recent fires)

If you make it to TPA I'll be the guy on your left 3 & 4 betting you.

You live in Washington? Drive up the road to Vancouver. Tons of 1/2 and 2/5 NL. The 1/2 is a $200 buy-in max and the 2/5 is deep stack with a $1k max buy-in.

Take your $$ n go to Hawaii... no poker but much more for an 18 year old...nudge nudge wink wink (did this 32 years ago still fresh in memory)
