Moving To Vegas To Play Poker


Recommended Posts

LOL Some black guy at the IP asked me if I wanted some "party favorites". I was like , "you mean coke?" , "yeah". He's like follow me then starts heading down towards a car. I knew it was a bad idea aT the time, but I wanted to head back into the RockHouse lit-up... so I decided to take the chance. The back windows were tinted which made me a little nervous. WHile I pretended to tie my shoes at the side of the car, I reached down and grabbed a bunch of loose dirt/pebbles.I tell him, "I'm not going to get in, show me the stuff and I'll hand you the cash". He pops open the glove compartment and pulls out an 8-ball. "70$ special , homie", he annouces. "But you gotta do the switch in the car dood". 100$ is obv BS... no way it is that cheap. He wants me in the car to see how much is in my wallet. If I'm loaded with 100$ bills at the time(which I was), he'd jack me on the spot. If I didn't have much, he'd just kick me out of the car and drive off. He pats me down, saying "you're not a cop right?". Upon finishing I assure him that I'm not and decide to make my move. I reach into the pocket with my wallet using the hand that had the pebbles/dust/gravel and slowly pull it out. I start opening it with the other hand and as he peaks in... BAM!!! I then reach into his glove-compartment and grab a bunch of coke and make a run for it. I make a run to the IP and hide in the bathroom stall pretending to take a massive shit. After a halfhour I said "FUCK it", and snorted an couple lines off the toilet-paper dispenser. I went back to the Rpckhouse coked up and told some skank bitches that I had some good shit on me. We took a cab back to my room in the Sahara. I took turns snorting it off their titties and ass, then said "tiem for da thunder, bitches!". OVerall a kick-ass night!

Well the best part was I bumped into Charles Barkley at the Mirage, and winded up playing HU4ROLLZ. I was up over 24 Buy-ins at 2-3 PLHE against him too. Unforunately that was the same day I got busted with the rest of the coke I had....FYI:"I reached down and grabbed some rock/pebbles...", "Then I just said 'FUCK it' and snorted a line off the toilet-paper dispenser..." /\ SHould have been the first clues :club:

OP: I don't mean to sound rude, but you have zero idea what you are getting yourself into. If you shortstack or play with a full buyin @ 1/2 live in Vegas for a living, you will make at most 10-12$ an hour. I read through page three, so I don't know if someone talked some sense into you, but I would really suggest NOT to do this.

Give it a go. You have a backup plan in place so it's not like you don't have anything to fall back on. You only live life once, make the most of it. Do it!

I would skip Vegas for a while and multitable online for a while. You can make more online unless your terrible and Vegas can wait. If you absolutely must go, mix live play with a lot of online play. IMHO playing online is the best way to be a pro today. You can play a couple of hours and get as many hands in as you would in a week of live play. Good Luck!

Jesus H. people. He's 23, who gives a shit if he goes busto and has to go back to the midwest and go into the family trucking (whatever) business.Steve, speaking from experience, get the f*** out. Go. Your 20's are for, well, being in your 20's. Go do shit. My guess is you'll find out it's a whole lot different than you expected. So what. Be a valet, dishwasher, stripper pole cleaner...whatever. Bankroll this, living expenses that, whether internet pros can beat live donks...who cares. None of that will mean shit when you are married and the only story you have to tell your kids is how you made the prudent decision to play more poker locally so you wouldn't take the risk of (gasp!) having fun and playing poker in Vegas.Keep your credit and genitals clean and everything will be fine.

Lot of sense (if you can call it that) in this post.There's another thread where the kid is working for like ... $6 an hour in Chicago. It changed my mind ... I think he should go.

Go for it, seriously, if you have a back-up plan in place then I say go do it. If you don't make it at least you will still have a hell of a story to tell plus a job at the family business to fall back on. Good Luck!
I still feel the same.

Smart move. stay home build up your br online or at the local casino and then go. That will give you a much better chance to kill the tables in Vegas. Good luck man

The story changes from time to time but the result is the same. Durrrrrrrr is a luckbox, btw.
Yah, but he uses overbets very effectively, balancing his range and typically using it to get paid off. That said it was pretty sick when he rivered the set. Kinda saw it coming =/
