Default Smoking

True -- most of the nice Vegas rooms are non-smoking now, which I love. My local card room in Seattle WA is awful -- six out of 10 players puffing away, and low ceilings, so it all just hangs the air. I come out just reeking.

Ok so it looks like Ill have to work at a smaller casino for at least a year, harrah and taj and the bigger ones say they want at least 1 year prior experience dealing before you can apply at there casino. Called Harrah to see what kind of documentation a dealer needs to apply and dont need anyone, anyone could apply for the job the only thing the school does is teach you the right way to deal and all the protical in dealing. Yes there is tons of little crappy things I got to get down pat expecially with the sidepots which in Nl can get pretty ridiculas but been playing awhile so think I will be able to get it down. Really looking forward to this I know its almost 2 months to go but still excited. This is gonna sound like im a little boy or imature but really not looking forward to telling my mom about this Sunday its just she has done so much for us and dont want her to think we dont appritiate it by moving now. She is very hard-headed even more then me must run in the family well ill post again later in week to let you know how it went with her if you all dont mind me sharing if you do just tell me to shut the hell up you damn baby and get to work

I havn't really read through the whole thread so forgive me if I repost stuff, but I think you should really think if this is what you want to do. If living in Vegas and being a poker dealer is something you really want to do I say go for it.

Where are the card rooms in Sacramento? I guess it doesn't matter since my parents don't live there anymore...

"Normal drama from my mother..."

Is that normal? Seems like you're giving more consideration to her than to your wife.

I was just trying to be curteous the truth is pretty much layed down the rules for her telling her to stop trying to make problems or we will leave and she will never see me or the kids again. Now I know alot of you are jumping to conclusioins but gotta relieze me and her never have got along she thinks being a good mother is buying her kids not supporting them. Now I know im a big boy and dont need her support but she has never liked any decision I have ever made including marrying my wife. So guess what ill do is finish this school and head up to AC see if I can get a job I have to get a 1-21 licence in AC in order to work in casino there which costs little over $400.00 which is no big deal, but really want to work at Taj there think ill apply there anyway even though it says 1 year expereince maybe I can blow some smoke up there ass's and get a audition never know I might wow them. If worse comes to worse Ill have to work in cali for a year.

I went to watch a tourney this weekend that 2 of my friends were playing in. I came out of there stinking, and i didnt ever play. What about smoking in poker rooms in AC?
