live in bangkok, its solid

that the us job market sucks, and instead of working 50+ hours a week for 40k with an uncertain future that they could get laid off at any point in time. They would rather work for themselves at home, take care of the family and make more money.

You should add stability of country's government and financial systems

safety / sketch areas

some thoughts:

poker is either seperately regulated(france, italy) or a grey area in almost every country in europe(UK is an exception, poker is 100% legal and taxfree here)

cashing out larger sums therefore can be a problem even for locals(i heard from a lot of germans who had problems in this regards, austria on the other hand is fine due to banker's secrecy)

language can be quite a problem in southern europe(spain, italy, france especially)
unless you are in a real touristy area people generally dont really speak english

I recommend you guys to look into Malta
english is offical language, lots of european poker players from all over europe are there, nice weather etc etc

thanks, really useful

if you wanted to get in a school in say toronto, you don't exactly have to sign up for a program. you can sign up for individual classes that have no deadlines. i had a guy in one of my finance classes way back that was from buffalo just doing 3-4 individual classes to brush up....

How proud do you think Kim Jung Il is of Obama since we have joined them as the second country to not allow its citizens to play online poker?

Obama hate seems to be popular now... but are we really going to forget Bill Frist, Daniel Tzvetkoff, and all the Republican politicians that got us here?

move to the US, GAMES ARE AMAZING

i think a lot of people on 2p2 "hated" obama from the beginning. 2p2 is libertarian land. not a coincidence obv. the reason 2p2ers were able to get good at poker is the same reason they chuckled when they saw obama spouting his bs about hope and change a few years ago: they're not morons.

don't get me wrong though, i of course hate just about every us politician except ron paul. put me in a small room w/ any of those dip****s, i promise you i'll go jon jones on every single one of them.
