I'm thinking the Bay Area, unless you're a really good player. In that case...ummm...somewhere else. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Seriously, though, you'll find plenty of good action at Bay 101 and Garden City. There's also Artichoke Joe's, Lucky Chances, and a couple of more, if I am not mistaken.

Cost of living is very high in the Bay Area, to be sure, but that's partially because of the amazing weather (a different kind of amazing than Southern California's weather).

Good luck with your decision!
