Hey, just wondering if I could find a place near where you live. I don't know exactly where you live, but I need a cheap, shithole apartment that is in a safe area. And I need to get a job dealing poker. What can I expect to pay a month in rent?

I live right behind work. Unfortunately, aptmts. were just sold to a real estate company. Don't know if they are going to convert them to condos or level them.

Around 600-700 a month, I would guess. Are you looking for furnished or unfurnished?

May have an opening if your a hard worker and don't complain as far as the poker dealing goes. Would be helpful if you went to poker school.

Illini- Might I suggest trying someplca other than vegas. I dont know if you have your heart set on LV, but if you are planning on being a poker dealer, you will make more money other places.

Dober- Probably unfurnished, but would take a look at both. I'm just tired of what I'm doing. I'm not a complainer at all, it's just that I've been here over 5 years, and I'm burned out and ready for a change. My plans right now are to leave sometime in probably mid-April. I was thinking that I could just head out there and get a job in a sportsbook, and then go to dealer school when I'm not working. I would probably try to get certified in craps and poker. I just need to know which school to go to. I know when I was out there and met up with you, you said that it's not worth it to just go to any school, that I would need to find out which one the casino wants me to go to. And from what I've heard, poker dealers are in demand, much more so than craps or blackjack.

Acedeuce- I don't have my heart set on anything, but Vegas intrigues me. I would probably like to deal craps eventually, but I don't know. Just need a change of jobs and scenery. Where would you suggest I go?

Illini- I have many friends who deal in different parts of the country and I can tell you that all the ones that end up in LV are not happy when they finally get there. For example a friend of mine worked for he Indian Casino in Tampa and left to go to LV. He was out there for 2 years and came back home. He makes substantially more money here than he ever did there and he worked at the Mirage during good shifts. He works at the Horse Track here now and when the season closes, he is going to go back to LV to work the 2 big summer tourneys. Unfortunatly for him, he was not able to be hired back at the Indian place because of leaving them twice. If he could though that is where he would choose to work I am certain. The other thing to consider when you live in LV is that you are going to have friends coming out to see you all the time and when they are out there they are there to have a good time and will expect you to go out with them meaning it is very hard to save any money when you live out there. Craps is pretty hard to learn, but once you do you will be able to find a job anywhere. I know you will have to put in your time at smaller casinos though if you do choose LV.

Acedeuce- I love craps tables. I can't afford to lose money playing it, but I would blow a lot on it, if I was rich. Next best thing to playing would be dealing, I guess. I like people too, and like BS'ing with strangers, so I think I've got the personality for it. One main reason I want to leave here is to rollover my 401K so I can trade stocks with it. I want to treat that like my job, and have a fun day job to earn my living expenses. Thanks for the info.
