Love the site

Great use of the site. I love the job board but I hope I don't need it for a while. Playing brings a better income for me, but the job brings security to a level where I can play my best.

Looking for tech help.

Hello again from sunny, hot as hell Temecula. I have been working on setting up a bunch of different websites based on an advertising business model but with expansive plans. To do so I have had to learn more about computers than I ever planned on. All this just to have the needed skills to make the network possible, the site designed and the programing developed. If anyone is a fellow tech head, writer, photographer, graphic designer, coder, and business freak like myself and would like to help… Continue

Looking for entrepreneurs.

I was wondering if there were any entrepreneurs out there in our little community. A friend of ours from Pechanga and his wife set up a nice business here in Temecula selling upscale bags (purses), shoes and clothes. A friend from Oceans 11 Casino in Oceanside set up a nice website selling poker related items. Cawa and Mark, respectively, have the right idea. Work for yourself and make yourself rich instead of working for others to help make them rich. Now don't get me wrong. I know the casino… Continue

Hiring lockdown

For table games dealers/floor everything is fine. People can still get work due to the high turnover of the industry but for poker where things move much slower things are a bit harder. Looking around at different clubs in the area have shown that most places simply are not hiring. This is to expected after a boom like we had the past couple of years. There is a huge labor pool for poker right now.

Feeling better.

Well, the antibiotics seem to be doing the trick. I am feeling better than I have for the past three years. Undiagnosed pneumonia really sticks around if it doesn't kill you. Doctors are pretty good once they get a handle on what's bothering you, but in my case, they dropped the ball on finding out what was wrong with me. I smoke, so most of the Dr.'s just wrote off the cough to smoking. Once I was hospitalized and they took x-rays of my chest they could actually see the infection and begin to t… Continue

Play or work?

Today I was fired when I was in the hospital with pneumonia. The joys of working for Soboba Casino in San Jacinto Ca. Ten years in business and they are still one of the poorest ran casino's in the business. Think about the explosion in gambling in the country and in So. Cal in general and then think how Soboba still can't get it's act together in terms of advertising, customer expansion and decent management. Now, my decision is to play or to look for work in a poor economy with ill health. Pu… Continue

Sorry to hear about your recent misfortune. I been out of the country and haven't checked here recently. Playing for a living is always a tough road with no $ coming in as safety net so I hope the cards run good for you.

Thought: I know Pokerstars is giving away some free seats to WSOP, free to qualify couldn't hurt to take a shot somebody's got to win it. I think there's even a pokerstars link the main page to this site, if you don't already have an account. Good luck bud.

Bad news today I'm afraid. Soboba Casino just fired the GM, the head of the finance department and others, myself included. Business was bad and I was in the hospital with pneumonia. What a way to get whacked.
