To me, games are way tougher in this city than other parts of the country, and I'm getting turned off of playing around here... I was back home in Niagara Falls twice in the last 2 months, along with trips to Arizona and California, all in which I managed to get in some poker playing time. To get right to the point, I find the games outside of Nevada to be way easier to beat, and thus I'm getting turned off of even wanting to play in Las Vegas. My game of choice is usually 1/2nl, or a bigger spread limit game when in Arizona... I'm comparing my last 5 sessions outside of Nevada to my last 5 on the strip, and the differences are significant. (-480 in Vegas, +1130 outside the state) I don't consider myself a bad player by any means, but I'm getting the feeling that games around here in Vegas are starting to become too tough. Anyone else who travels around a bit get that feeling? I'm almost ready to devote more time to Party Poker than on the strip because the competition gap is starting to grow significantly...
