    Good luck, man. 100 hours is not really an adequate sample size to say you're ready for a road trip, but I do wish you well.

    One general comment and question for others: What is the fascination with back-offs by neophytes and even some seasoned veterans? Personally, I prefer optimizing play for longevity rather than short-term gain.

    I too prefer an optimizer approach when it comes to my locals. However since I'm traveling to places I don't intend on returning to I'm going in with a burn it down mindset this time. I only mentioned the backoffs since I'm new to this forum and knew a seasoned pro would question if I knew what I was doing. Even though I only have 100 hours in live time I easily have double or triple that in training at home before playing. I'm not there to gamble, I'm there to make money.

    Hey guys, to those of you following this thread I'm sorry for not posting an update in awhile. I have great news! I found a dream of a casino. They let me spread $10-$200 for hours and put me up in an upgraded room comped. I'm still averaging 4 hours a day, spending a significant portion of the day exercising, eating healthy, and talking with my family and friends. I'm enjoying this journey and am grateful for the variance being nice this time around. Good luck out there.
