Personally my goal is to accomplish this (goal 10k) and move in with my cousin who lives 10 minutes from foxwoods. I'd much rather play live because I do bad things after 11pm while online for reasons unknownDiscuss..ZOMG everytime I edit it cancels responses, weakkkkkkkkkk

Depends how well you get on with your cousin, and how open he is to the idea.Sounds great in theory, but a couple months down the line (or even a few weeks!), things like living arrangements, arguments, bills, food, friends staying over, girls etc etc etc... it may get tricky.Just be sure that you KNOW it will still be cool, 6 months down the line.

If you won't have an internet connection wherever you are moving...I'd do that.

You need to control your drinking or you'll never get anywhere in poker.If you can...you could do good things.

How long do you think it is going to take to get that bankroll? What games are you going to be playing? BTW I'll be at foxwoods in a week and a half to play a tourney and some 2/5.

You're a foxwoods "pro" and you aspire to move in with your brother? That isnt very pimp.

i dont wana go into my history its long, without any big cashes and if I never lost any money drunk and just held my sober stats my BR would be over 50k, not a brag just the sad truth.and it kills me everyday to think about iti have one DUI and dont drink and drive anymoreSo I need to strictly play livei lived a life you could right a book on ( not a brag again just the truth)I got sicko skills anyone who has seen me play even if just briefly on this site would not argue with that statementI just need to get a gameplan and execute it

In all seriousness, I would do it. You're young enough and have no anchors in your life like a wife or kids, now is the time to try 'dumb' things to see if they work for you. Later on you may not have the freedom to take your shot.The drinking thing isn't something to ever forget about. I have yet to meet a man tougher than alchol, no matter how much they think so.Whatever you do, good luck.

First thing to do, take half your roll to the BJ tables and either triple it or bust. Then when you triple it you will have double your original roll. Bingo bango.
