Hey,

I promised myself that I would move to LV this year for approx 3-6 months to play 10/20 NL full time live. Why? I get a little bored of playing against faceless people and i love the atmosphere of casinos. I also happen to think my live game is much better at a high stakes live game, however its very hard to find any game over 2/2 PL here. Plus i would just love the experience, and also get to enter a few Tournaments to brush up my game.

I was lucky enough for a contact of mine to put me in touch with Daniel Negreanus personal assistant, who was lovely. We discussed casinos comping full time pro's, which she replied unless you are a "celebrity poker player" there is little chance. The best thing i could do would be to stay at a cheaper hotel and pay poker players rate, which is slighly less then normal accomdation. However she was confident that pretty much everything else would be taken care of; food, entertainment etc. Its a matter of the floor manager spotting me, which she said if you play there several hours a day they will do straight away and take care of you.

Im not sure how glamerous the life would be, but its something i would like to try.

The only answer she couldnt tell me is how long im allowed to stay in the USA/LV. Anybody any ideas? My brother explained to me its 3 months but i was under the influence it was 6? Or maybe im thinking two stays a year of 3 months equal?
