Default I want to play poker from the Beach

I am thinking about living elsewhere and traveling and playing poker. However I do not want to play poker from internet cafes. Would it be possible to get internet access on the beach in the middle of no where?

I'd pay up to 200 / month for this.

On the cover of Internet Texas Hold'em by Matthew Hilger it appears as though you can (although the person playing is a cartoon).
Hope that helps!

On a more serious note I think you might be able to use a cellular connection to connect although Im not sure on that one.

It still bothers the hell out of me that there is a royal flush on the board on the cover.

even if you could get connection, it will most likely be very weak.

i'm more bothered by the tv commercials for partypoker.net where they are playing 5-card draw which happens to be a game they don't offer on party (like the one where the security guard is playing poker with his dog).

then they spread out 5 cards on the party screen and it's a royal in that TV spot as well.
Just like Hilger's book!!!

Take your laptop outside on a bright day, operating just off battery power, and I think you will find that it's almost impossible to view the screen.

I think you just need a really long network cable. Say a few hundred miles.
