Just to make it clear: I am using the wait list as a guide only and reserve the right to not follow the exact order and process I've detailed in this thread. Although so far I've strictly followed the wait list organized by date contacted, in the case of rare or unusual circumstances I may deviate from this list. For example:
  • My best friend moves to Thailand and wants to live here.
  • Strictly following the list will cause vacancy, or the greater possibility of vacancy.
  • You are a known scammer and cheat.
  • I don't think you'll be a good fit.

Basically I like that it's first-come-first-serve instead of making people apply and picking who I like best. For the most part.

That being said, the wait list is now:

Official Interest List
If you are interested in a future date, please quote this message and put your 2+2 sn under the month you are interested in. IF and only if a room opens, then first on the list will then have at least 24 hours to make the deposit, and so on.

If you want to keep yourself private, PM me and I can add you. Or if you already contacted me about a future date and want to find out where you stand, PM me.

Bumpitty Bump.

A house member had to leave unexpectedly and thus a space is open immediately. I have PMed a few people on the wait list but they could not insta move out to Bangkok.

Therefore, the room is now available publicly to whoever contacts me and deposits first and can start paying rent within 10 days.

I'm about to board a very long flight so if anyone wants it for sure here is my stars info for the $1,000 deposit. I'll check as soon as I land and send back money if more than one person attempt to reserve the space.

There is still a spot open immediately and open to anyone who want it, no wait list at all. First come first serve and googogg to bkk.

Also you'll notice the wait list has gotten a little more reasonable and I would expect anyone who may be interested for October/November to have a very good shot at getting a room.

Of course if you want a date way in the future, such as July 2010, put your name down to lock up a space if we do extend the lease past January. The only we'll way I'll know if there is interest is, well, if there is an interest list.

Is there a gym near your place?

DLB,

Thanks for the tip. I will definitely make good use of that for all my online sportsbook ventures...

frogstomp,

I don't get to use moneybookers or neteller, because I'm American . I know some scandis have been using it seemingly without any trouble. I always just wire money to my checking account then withdrawl money using my debit card at any of the various banks around BKK.
There's gyms all over bkk. I'm not sure where the closest one to the house is though. I'm sure at the most it's a quick BTS ride away.

frankpark9,

From what I remember reading awhile ago rainy season is ending somewhat soon, and the winter months are some of the best times to visit Thailand weather wise. Although my memory is awful, and I'm not all that good at reading.

I've updated the interest list below. December and January have filled out nicely but there is still one room open immediately and October has nobody on the wait list.

That room is open to anyone -- first to deposit gets it.

  • True Internet: 1904
  • TOT Internet: 1177
  • Water: 209
  • Garbage: 480
  • Maid groceries: 2200

So utilities cost around 4,000 Baht per person per month.

Bike ride to main street: 30 cents

SkyTrain to most of Bangkok: 50 cents - $2

Cab to the airport: $7

I think you can figure out what you'd spend there depending on your habits.

Bump. All of the rooms are open. There is one room available imminently, another opening on October 12, and yet another on November 1.

If you are thinking of coming with a friend now would be a great time to lock up 2 rooms at the same time.

The lease is for sure through January, after that the poker house will most likely end.

I also offer coaching. Jk. There is something, though, to be said for living in a poker house. It definitely helped my game a ton, not just for strategy discussions and different viewpoints and opinions, but just having other ppl to grind next to and chat with.
