Default Whats the best country for online poker?

Imagine for a moment that things like family, culture etc were not at all important, and you were trying to pick a country to play poker online professionally in.

Based on things like
1. Online gaming legality
2. Tax laws
3. Not a 3rd world country
4. Cost of living
5. English Speaking (slightly preferable but not crucial)
6. other
What country would you guys chose?

What's your definition of 3rd world country?

I wouldn't mind living in Thailand, Costa Rica, or even Mexico. A lot of 3rd world countries are beautiful and have large cosmopolitan cities.

Australia might be a good choice.

This is seriously ignorant. What experience do you have to draw from to lead you to this conclusion?
