This really makes me want to play somewhere else in February but this month I've already got 20 tickets.

Worst promo ever...but hey let's do it again! People would much rather stay at the casino all day and night and maybe win 1000 dollars than just get paid 600+ right?
And they're doing it before even seeing what a nightmare it is on the drawing day for the month of January. Ugh. Why. This is like the dumbest promo I've ever seen.

The poker room cage was robbed at gunpoint at 2am on Friday morning (for $10K). One of the dealers stated it was by a 2/5 reg.

Photo in the attached article. Anyone have a name? No I'm not the cops.

What a Moron.There has been more than one 2/5 Player turned Bank Robber at this Poker Room in the past. A few years back, a regular 2/5 player robbed the same bank 3 times before being captured. I think he wore a scream mask.

and yet when i tell the guys who read my blog that "no, other people wont go get a job when they go broke" and this is why its important to play the lowest stakes possible (and min buy so u never go broke unless u get stuck and need to buyin more), they annoy me by telling me u should seperate ur roll for poker and your rolls for living expenses, reading this proves its pointless because once the roll for one is gone, u immediately dig into the other roll to keep going.

this just proves the lengths everyone will go to survive. but dont worry about me, ill never rob a bank, because im afraid of violence and Jesus doesnt approve. i wouldnt need to anyone since even when my rolls about $15,000 ill still short stack the games with $60 minimum buyins. this is how u keep from ever getting desperate.

NEVER MAX BUY AND NEVER PLAY $2-5, its the only way to make a living without ending up on the streets for life

I guess he's not a reg anymore...

Guess it was only a remotely +EV move if he was total garbage at poker.

Hoping the idiot gets caught.

Not if you suck at poker. For those of us who dont, you can ignore this advice.

He was caught in Ybor but did the killings in Seminole Heights. Just saying.

FWIW I live in SH and it's a good alternative too. 15 minutes from the THR.

This is high season for snow birds and vacationers. Most expensive time of year for finding a short-term rental in Florida. The closer you get to the beaches, the more expensive. Try neighborhoods that are a little further north or east, such as Temple Terrace, Seffner, Lutz, Plant City, Thonotasassa, Wesley Chapel.

Try realtor.com. It gets info directly from realtors MLS.
It’s like Zillow, but Zillow sucks.
Dunno if you will have luck or not. But they list rentals as well as homes for sale.
Might be more annual rentals though there should be month to months.
I’ll take a look on the MLS when I get a chance. I’m a realtor. When are you looking and for how long?
You prolly said but I’m posting now and can’t scroll back.

Oh you said a few months. When are you thinking?

Where are you coming from? You live in a city/urban area now or suburbs.
You have a family or with other grinders?

You want to be 15 minutes away or can 30-45-60 minutes work for you. Proximity to HR only issue. Nice beaches or w/e within an hour. Do you care?

Some context helps.

15th march to 15th May 2 months.

And as some more info I come from Barcelona, Spain so it is a bigger City and my main concern is safety, I Would rather be near the casino than the beach which I Will visita eventually but less than the casino, coming With more grinders.

I can Live in a not so fancy environment as long there is safety and I can walk safely around.

Thank you for helping me guys!

Hope you and your grinder friends have a great time here!

That said, if I find out one of you are at my table and are unwilling to be social/wearing headphones/giving off a grinder vibe, I will taunt you mercilessly. We love that you're visiting our room, but please don't mess up what is (at my tables at least) a fun vibe.

If you PM your email address, I can send you a link to a few properties from the MLS (website realtors use to find properties for sale/rent).

Prices seem to range $1175-1700 a month for a 3br/2/br furnished unit.
