I really want to play the WCOOP. I do not want to leave the USA. I do not want to "relocate out of the USA" I'd like to move out of the USA for 1month to play WCOOP. Can this happen?
I'm basically homeless right now. (Living on air mattress in small office in JJ's apartment.)
I want to/need to play WCOOP. (I'm broke, but obv can be staked and would be great chance to get unbusto, thinly veiled brag I FTd a 1k in both the last scoop/wcoop
)
I do not want to move out of the country permanently. I only want to grind for a month.
Pokerstars seems to be intentionally vague/absurd in e-mails to them basically saying "Move and we'll tell you what you have to do"
This is completely absurd. I've given hundreds of thousands of rake over years and it should be out there. I don't see the point for this.
I know often it involves utiltiy bills/proof of address/landline phone call (WTF I HAVENT HAD A LANDLINE IN FOREVER)
Is it really impossible for me to find one of my many poker friends crash on a couch pay them a little rent and be able to grind stars? It seems it would be hard to get bills in my name/other stuff. Especially because I'm really poor/not that great at figuring stuff like this out. Bank account seems hard too.
Pokerstars, can you help me out? Can anyone give advice? I just want to be able to go to Canada or a friends for the month and then figure out the money (if I'm lucky to have money afterwards) I don't have the luxury of being able to coordinate/hunt for places to live outside the country with my current money liquidity.
What is my best/cheapest/easiest plan? Do any of my friends want to have me come visit them? If anyones bustoish/has some mutual vouches I can even give you good coaching!
Friend just told me...
u need to give yourself up to 20 days to get ****ed by stars
so you want to have a lease signed in about 5 days somewhere
i'm sure you can give yourself 10-12 days but def risk missing 1st sunday
I'm playing WPT at end of this month. This is just absurd. Why are they making it so hard on us? I'll ****ing videotape myself outside a famous Canadian landmark or w/e/skype someone. I'm not vpning/pretending to leave country if I do. God, I just want to be able to do my job. It just seems so hard. Do they really want to make you COMPLETELY relocate! I'm homeless now pokerstars! I am living couch to couch and JJ's wife hates me and I'm gonna be kicked out soon...and just got owned by Jamie Gold today
(But got invited to his home game!!!!)
Can pokerstars please comment/anyone comment? Just seems so weird/not right why they are being intentionally vague/not helpful to me. Pokerstars is usually the best. I mean I know its to prevent people cheating/rigging the system and playing online in the US. But....why? Sigh, just so tilting, I'm prob not gonna make it out, is it even worth me paying for passport?
