haha yeah unfortunate your visit to the casino didn't turn out to well but like you said you got your night out......certainly have to agree with everything ong and jyms have stated and as much fun as it is to play live I think having yourself a br will make it better because you don't have in your mind "if I lose tonight I don't get to play for another 2 months".

Now having that on your mind would help you play more focused, and allow you to play the 1/3 game with full buyins to maximize your ev......I would certainly recommend online to have the money go further and basically if you have extra a long the way then save it up to slowly build a live br while still being able to play online and get the poker fix.

Good luck in your next poker venture.
