Hey all, well as the title says, I'm moving to Vegas this week. This has been after much thought and prayer, and I'll try not to drag this post out too much
Basic rundown of myself and how I came to this decision point:
-I've been playing poker for 6 years. (Youngish, 25, started at 19)
-I started online early this year, (chico, WPN, Ignition)
-I'm winning 10-50nl cash games at a rate of 60bb/100.
-I really enjoy the math/theory side of it, studying is part of the game if you're serious imo.
-I do have a "day job", I'm an avionics technician which I do enjoy, and will always have that as a backup should I fail as a poker pro.
-I recently came into 20k through a family inheritance.
-I now have the talked about "6 months of living expenses in addition to poker bankroll."
So my plan is to grind a mix of live and online, always keeping strict BR managment now since this will be my life. When I lived in Cali I took many regular trips to Vegas so I'm not too concerned about the overwhelming effect it can have. I'd really like to meet up with some local grinders and hear your stories and advice, talk hands, etc. as this is a really big step for me. So that's it in short, again after much research and talking to fellow peers etc. this is the choice I'm going with.
So please respond with advice, pointers, if you'd like to meetup, etc. I'd really greatly appreciate it. See ya on the felt!
