Default Thought about this alot

How cool would it be to travel, with a laptop and just travel the world playing poker on your laptop while infusing your self in different cultures around the world, and playing poker online in internet cafes, airports, and wherever you get a wireless connection for a few hours a day. I thought about doing this for a summer, would be really sweet....Thoughts

Your BB/100 drops insanely when Indonesian kids are begging for pennies at your knees during the Jakarta stopover.

... when you realize that a downswing can last a month and your money is drying up while you are in the middle of a foreign country, then you may realize that this isnt the best idea for most.

I think Daryn was going to do a micro experiment of this at his local cafe. Maybe he'll report how it went.

No way I could possibly fathom spending the money to travel the world, only to sit on my computer and play poker? Sounds like the biggest waste of time and money.

I wouldnt play that high probably 4 table 5/10 6 max or something stay in place long enough till I have money for a plane ticket ovbiously I would bring some cash along with a credit card, but to supplement I would play poker every chance I got....Also I once read about a guy that traveled the United States in his Conversion Van playing poker in casions and underground games across the country while traveling....possibly a cool idea.
