I have a biased perspective, given I've been rolling pretty well lifetime in live games (rolling well or playing well?). The uncertainty to that question is the only thing that would ever have me worry about going live. Well that.. and having played online and having experienced 30k, 50k+ hands of run bad... and extrapolating that to how long that represents in the live world. That's a scary prospect.

That being said, the quality of live play is so much worse than online, that it should definitely dampen any bad run, and stretch/heighten any good run.

I'm sure you'll kill it and looking forward to hearing about it and being jealous that I don't have the freedom to do the same :P
