Can you get a work visa for playing online poker

[chinamaniac]

Does anybody know if u can get a work visa for playing online poker in the UK (or other European countries)? I doubt its possible but dont know how to get a visa to be able to stay there for more then 6 months. Any help would be great.

I have had Issues with credit cards in Europe, so much so that I stopped using them. St Anton one of the largest ski areas in Austria accepts only cash, for online poker I will strictly deposit and withdraw with a bank account never a problem, hope that helps, this is mostly Eastern Europe mind you.
All my credit cards are busness cards as well, I would try opening a bank account if you can. Good luck!

or just buy the funds on 2+2 @ a low discount for BOA to americans who are looking for an easy way to cash out funds to US banks
