@ Headworks - you could do that, but you'll have to run back to town alot just to sell off the items, the max for something like an elite armor/weapon you'd get is 35k gold, and even then you can only carry so much in the inventory before having to return to town, whereas if you go straight to travinval and kill the council, collect the gold and perhaps even sell off some of the items you'll get gold that way alot faster. Also you'll miss out on dual wielding 6 lem weapons

@ l3H~Cyclops - you can gamble pretty much anywhere since its the actual character level that matters when gambling, i usually try to gamble in Hell since when selling back items you'll get up to 35k gold compared to nightmare and normals selling back limits.
@ Hägga - fair enough, like i mentioned in the guide there's lots of char choices you can use for Gold finding purposes, with this build you'll be owning nightmare travincal very quickly as well as getting around 300-400k gold per run....and virtually no chance of dying in NM, compared to Hell travincal runs
