    Why Are Guys Lying About Living In Vegas??

    There are two here that say they live there and in fact live thousands of miles away from there, what's the motivation?? I could never understand that. I guess they want to feel important?? Of course I will not mention the names but we busted them when items were shipped to their house from the SBR store. Hey news flash it was not Nevada and not even close to Nevada. Its all good though.

    i think i know who jj is talking about.

    if u live there but cant produce a single betting slip, sure tell-tale sign that you dont live there.

    heck, i dont live there and have posted 70+ betting slips.

    They want to appear big time. We're on a gambling forum, best place to be a pro living the dream is Vegas. The town of Tumbleweeds, Mississippi doesn't have the same ring to it.

    I live around 100 miles from my actual address.

    Every couple of weeks I go by the abandoned house to pick up the mail.

    You really think I'd give anyone over the Internet my actual address lol...

    Shady actually does live there. At least I think he does.

    Then again, he also told me he's "pretty high up" in a family out there, and that he drives a Maybach.

    I wasn't aware Maybach made 10-speeds

    I live on the edge of Vegas, a short drive from the sports books and with a view of the desert. If I wake up early enough I sometimes see guys digging holes out there.

    fishhead lives there

    Last year I stayed up 24 hours straight with him playing video poker at Southpoint. After he got me a free lunch at Sushi Roku, and a quick shave, he took me down to freemont. Down at freemont he took me to an advantage roulette table only him and 3 other humans on planet earth knew about. The angle of the table would result in a slight wobble and the same set of numbers would hit roughly 76% of the time. Needless to say, we won big and had an OUTSTANDING time. The rest of the night we simply shared stories of our past and looked forward to a future filled with altruistic values.

    There is no real advantage to Vegas now. I lived there for about 10 years. Much easier to click a button to make a play.
    I think Fish lives in Summerlin, about 15 minutes from Vegas.

    Don't see the point.
    Vegas is a thing of the past.
    Was great to be here 15-20 years ago.
    Just a rotting city now with nothing to offer anymore because of casinos being flooded all over the country.

    The weather sucks, there are no jobs if you need one, real estate hit rockbottom a cpl years ago.

    I don't see the fascination with it.
    Looking into relocating sometimes before the year is over.

    Much of this very true. At least real estate market making a bit of a comeback here.

    Yeah, I am gonna get my real estate license here after my little vacation I got coming up.
    I got one in Florida about 10 years ago and never used it.
    Was busy raking it in online playing poker and didn't see the point at the time.
    Just in case it takes me a minute to find a job and relocating, it won't hurt to get my feet wet in this field.
    The market is obviously improving because it couldn't get any worse here. I'm sure the guys who were scooping up foreclosures left n right 3 years ago have already crushed it with profits even dumping them now.

    I am not sure why anyone would lie about living in Las Vegas, it's actually a shit hole and I wouldn't ever want to live there. There is nothing there. It's not some place to be bragging about living, I would be embarrassed if anything.
