At what playing speed do or did most decide to take their game on the road? C, B, A, AA, AAA. Does it matter if someone knows how to match up? How long does it typically last?

I think it is a function of the level of play in your area, your bankroll and your (required) responsibility level.

IMO, skill is largely unrelated to whether you will 'make it' on the road, in this day and age. It is all about how you match up.

Didn't see your post..
Like your way of thinking though lol
 
I know a good B-level player who once went on the road with his cousin Scotty Townsend. He said Scotty would go into the rooms and tell them he was the best and if they didn't believe it to bet something. He said Scotty couldn't get much action, but they wanted to play him thinking he was Scotty's backer and he said he won them a good bit of money.

Sounds like the reverse hustle Danny Basavich and Bristol Bob use to pull.
 
If you are the stranger, you will be giving weight, but almost never getting any. You have to be at least an "A" player.
 
Never played on the road but always imagined it would go like this. Plan a round trip to no certain destination while on the outbound side match up along the way with your B game dropping a few coins along the way to see what speed your up against. Then when your game has improved turn around, match up right and come home with a pocket full.
 
If anyone is willing to hit the road they better really know what they are doing, they better have or be a great steer person, stay as safe as possiable, stay sober (i know this is the toughest part) and steady send money home!And yes know how to match up (thats what the steer guy is for) he should know all of this, I believe with out a great steer guy, a person would be hopeless out there!

anything lower than A and you'll be broke soon.
 
Hitting the road is what happens when you cheat on your wife, and or, girlfriend. I don't think speed has much to do with it unless, of course, you happen to be riding in her car at the time. :smile:
