It's been stated they have the $5 night down to a science. It all seems pretty legit and I can't wait to try it.

I think saw 20K hands in there from yesterday.

Pizza it is, either tonight or tomorrow...

Sam the 5 dollar get ****ed up thing is for real, just ship the 10 on Stars now as you most likely won't be able to remember the night after if you complete the whole 5 dollar process.

nice. I am a student finishing school this year, and also thinking about going to a cheap country to play poker and party for some time. Cambodia sounds pretty good ^^

To save you won't have much of a social life but you could just grind in all your spare time back in the UK... and then when you go back out, calm the partying a little and mix in grinding & partying so you will be sorted for ages. It's what I'd do, just seems preferable to grinding NL2/5 for 8 hours a day for barely breakeven somedays, must be torturous.

I still don't believe the $5 night thing, if I have a great night and spend around that - I'm happy to donate $10 to your stars accounts aswell, just to help out and because of money saved on the night lol - last time I was in snooky I was spending like 10 times that haha.
Yes we thought about it, but nah we'd much rather live here grinding the micros then going home and stacking shelves.... We are staying here until we are forced to go home... Hahahah when you come here we will get you ****ed on $4 ($1 is for a balloon or a ride home), believe me :P

Been here almost 9 months never had any real problems... The Cambodians seem like very friendly people, we even go to khmer only clubs and they love us there lol

Yeah we both love it here, moving out of England was the best thing we ever did.... If only we knew what we knew now when we first came here...

Thanks everyone!

Not sure if its been mentioned in this thread but there is a fair bit of bar hopping going on taking advantage of all the special deals and promotions. You can get 12-14 beers, 2 buckets (8-10 whiskey shots) and 3 free shots of whiskey/orange/grenadine. Thats cost you $4, so we say 5 cuz we always need a ride home but if you dont need a ride home you can get a baloon or whatever

Start at 9pm, last deal ends at 2am....

How many people does that involve chipping in $4 dollars, and is that beacuse you worked there or everybody can get that?

You get that whole lot for $4 each, and no special treatment, We used to get special treatment at JJ's as we used to work there from the western promo guys but now all the've all changed...

Can you elaborate on this?
" If only we knew what we knew now when we first came here.."

Subbed for the stories!

Some questions:
Is language a barrier or do most people speak English?
How many English/non Cambodians live where you are at?
Do you drive around or walk/buses?

Never tried them, but there was groups doing them all around us in utopia...looked fun. On the subject of that place I don't remember seeing worse condition pool tables/equipment in the world, ever. Lol. Read somewhere that a Scottish tourist drowned in the pool there too?

Just knowing things like prices/places to eat, not to party so much then we would be in such a better spot now

- Most do speak some English, more among young people... We both know a little khmer, so we get by :P
- There are 15 rooms (I think) where we live, all westerners..
- We walk a lot. And a moto is never more than $1 from anywhere in the city...

Yeah they are fun, I recommend trying one :P Erm, I don't really go to Utopia anymore but yeah they have the worst pool tables in Sihanoukville... And yes, I did hear a story of some guy jumping into the pool with no water and killing himself, or something similar... :S

They are $1 each. I went through a phase of doing like 10 per night. I've seen a Norwegian guy do like 80+. One of the bosses of the late night bars done around 70 and went crazy, tried to drown a girl because "she was annoying him"... I've seen people do go crazy after doing like 30+

Weed is illegal, but no one cares, you can smoke pretty much anywhere, just a way for police to make a few extra $$... We've never had any problems with police and drugs.... The security guard at the bar we worked at is a part time police man, part time drug dealer...

----

I played ok today, went tits up at the end as usual... Only spent $9 on food combined today :P Izzit didn't play because he's been a bit ill..



Maybe will have a night or two out soon so hopefully some degen stories will follow...

These are just for you, these were taken at a "khmer" only night club...me and yazz turn up in vests shorts and flipflops or even barefoot, down the rest of the last whiskey bucket and bop in after a quick chat with randoms outside....every khmer is dressed smart lol.

Spoiler:




You know mind is on the grind now, neither of us have decent camera phones so taking pics will be trickey, so dont expect alot of degen stories as this is PGC after all, we need motivation to grind
