Play online. You aren't going to win 20 grand playing 8/16 live. Play 3/6 online and 4 table and you have a much much better chance.

3 months playing 9/18 live? i highly doubt you can make 20k doing that. i'd have a hard enough time multitabling 5/10 all summer and making that.

To the original poster - you know the answer to that question, my question is how could you possibly think anyone would care?

If you play 1/2 or .5/1 online do you have the BR to play 9/18?

Also - what makes you think you could beat the 9/18 which I can promise you is much tougher then party 1/2 or .5/1

I have no idea how the Vegas-casinos are, but B&M as general at the 8/16 you would need to play 14 hours a day as omebody else mentioned if you have a winrate of BB/hour, if you don't know your winrate don't expect it too be higher. Maybe you can grind it up to 1½ BB/hour you will only need to play 10 hours a day. I think this is possible given the games are regular easy BM games. But if you need days or hours off to be sure you wont risk a meltdown.

If you multitable 4 tables online 90 days and play 10 hours a day. you will need a winrate of 2BB/100 hands on limit 3/6$. You can achieve this given your game is good enough, however I think it may be easier in BM.

Good luck.

For live 9/18, in that given time, 3 months, you'd have to really be on a fantastic run of cards. 3 months to make basically 1000bbs.

The rake on the 9-18 Commerce game is ridiculous too. $4 drop, $1 jackpot, even if no flop is dealt. The crazy action makes up for it, but when the game gets even relatively tight it's not worth playing.

Get up to the 15-30 or 20-40 Commerce if you want to make that kind of dough.

I you have a real bankroll for 9-18, learn to play 5/10 short instead. The rakeback alone is probably going to compare to your win rate at 9/18.
