I have been tossing around another possible writing idea and I thought I would get some opinions of it. The "hero" would be by a day a professional poker player who travels the world chasing the latest tournament of big game. This is just a cove r though as his real profession is a hitman, either working for the US government of assassain for hire I haven't decided yet. The crux of the story would be his struggles to juggle his "normal life" and that of telling his tales of being a trained killer.
Thoughts.
Here is a link to the beginning of what I'm working on now.

My daughter is staying with me for the next week, which occupies alot of time. Consequently I will be looking to only do 750 hands most days for while she is here. After that I want to put in some serious time to get to the 25K hands by mid July.

You're a cool cat and I wish you the best. This idea sounds horrible. Tilt meets True Lies? I think you would be able to write something better if you tried to be more original and stayed away from poker. You're too close to it.
I hope you prove me wrong.
