Any books suggestions or good reads?
haven't read a single book in my career. I've surrounded my self with good players and we exchange ideas. Other than that it just takes practice. I had several subscriptions to various sites.. I still have one for runitonce.com but it costs 100usd a month, and it's only valuable if you're on that level.

LA is great.. I just hate living out of a suitcase for extended periods on time.. It gets old really fast. That's why I decided that this isn't something I would like to do as a career in the future.
Playing in Macau / LA / and generally following the events around is really fun and exciting at first, but for me it got boring and I missed home. It's also really tough if you're in a relationship, which I am.
Playing live games in Vancouver can still generate you a decent income, but I like to do things to the best of my ability, and knowing I can profit more somewhere else kind of bothers me. As for online games,
I think those are going to keep getting worse, and I don't want to invest a bunch of time in to becoming good enough to beat the higher stakes, only to not be able to play a few years down the road.
