Good job, man. Hopefully you've got a great coach.

A couple of years ago, a 40-something tax guy made the move to Vegas. Packerfan1 was his username on 2p2, I think. You might want to read about his time in Vegas. His thread, whereas not a huge success, could provide some useful information to you.

Good luck man!

Looking forward to hear how this turns out!

Good luck!

What the hell ever happened to Packerfan? I always enjoyed his tales.

Extended stays are still more expensive and crappier full of drug addicts. It may seem weird, but I've had roommates in their 40s that were ok, and if he is young at heart (which he needs to be to move to Vegas IMO) then he will be fine.

MY ROUTE

I think I have figured out the path I will be taking to Vegas.

I plan to go to Cherokee, then Tunica, MS. After that my next step is Ok City followed by Sandia Casino in NM. From there...VEGAS!!

This will enable me to hit some of the Total Rewards casinos and hopefully get some comped rooms.

I shouldnt have to drive more than 9 hours at a stretch which is good for an old guy like me. So basically drive a day, play a day.

Might be a two week trip at most but possibly shorter.

My tentative leave date is Sept 17th with my arrival in Vegas by the end of the month.

Vermont is awesome.

For example, not overrun by illegals like Cali.

Ya, the Canadians return home!

Oh my God. What are you talking about? I gave the guy advice. I'm not sure if you are aware of this, but EVERY SINGLE bank in the United States was involved in serious fraud. What they did is allowed people to lie on loan applications. They would then lend the money for the house, hundreds of thousands of dollars, while requiring the borrower to not put down a single penny.

The next step was to sell the loans to Wall Street so they could get rid of the risk. Then Wall Street sold the loans to the rest of the world and basically created the biggest financial disaster in our lifetimes.

Never before in world history had people been able to buy houses with zero down. People took these loans and many then were able to take out a few hundred thousand in home equity loans, if they got in during the rise. Many of these people took out hundreds of thousands of dollars without ever putting in a penny, since their home equity loans were far in excess of the mortgage total that they paid during the time they stayed there.

So, what happened when the **** hit the fan? The banks, and Wall Street asked to be bailed out. They were ALL GOING TO ZERO. That bailout came from public money, which means that every single American Citizen paid for it.

So, if they can do that, without anybody going to prison, then this guy can order a few cards and max them out if the worst case scenario happens. Those are the rules, and he is allowed to order as many cards as he likes, and if he gets into trouble he can use them. And if he goes under he can file for Bankruptcy, as there are no debtors prisons.

The only part he has to worry about, either legally, or ethically, is if he decides to keep a few thousand or more in cash and not report that on the bankruptcy application. If he does that, the damage he does to the world absolutely pales in comparison to the damage that those very banks did.

He will not damage anybody. He does theoretical damage to imaginary people. Those very banks put in place a game with their crummy mortgages that led lots of people to take their lives, and many others to take other people's lives. Many lives were ruined. If he pulls the plug and takes some cash out NOBODY gets ruined.

This is real world stuff. Publicly traded companies pull far more egregious moves than this, as they often max out credit lines immediately before filing bankruptcy, and management and employees get paid with that.

Last I checked, he just stopped posting in his thread but was still coming to 2+2 everyday.

I guess he failed.

OP, where do you live in NC?

Dude you sound 40 going on 75 ..

Wake up around 11am, soak some rays by the pool followed by full greasy breakfast

1.30pm - 5/10 table and bring your A-game
3.00pm - can't ignore the big-titted waitresses any longer .. move to 2/5 table and start ordering vodkas
7pm - Blazing drunk .. move to 1/3 table and declare in a loud voice 'donkey comin in!' then stack their asses.

Repeat.

Good Luck OP!

You know, 4K if you don't run bad at the beginning, you can do it.
I wouldn't recommend the TI thing tho (full of regs, small pots, boring game and not juicy if you play nitty), but maybe to chase the freerolls? Just for a start tho, then, after a month, when you feel good and your game is set, go table select.

Maybe some infos in a TR I made :

I live near Charlotte

That’s not fraud on the part of the lender. It may have been a bad business model, but not fraud.

Just because one person breaks the law somewhere in the world does not mean you can. Very faulty logic.

Regardless on the fallacy of no one gets hurt. The OP would also have to worry about committing fraud, tax evasion and money laundering.

Fraud for taking out the credit card without the intention of playing it back, tax evasion for not reporting the money gained by fraud, and money laundering for making the money clean. The odds of getting caught and charged with everthing is not great, but if it happened the OPs life is f#cked.

I agree with Limo Wreck and will avoid ever doing business with you.

Best of luck to OP.

For the record I will NOT be ordering more credit cards and maxing them out. Nor will I be committing any fraudulent acts.
