I think Villa is extremely overrated in this thread.
On the 26th Edgewater would have it's monthly 450+50 tourny, that runs the last saturday of every month. I've never played it, I'm a nighttime player.
Edgewater vs. Villa
Edgewater Pros:
The biggest game in town is the Edgewater PLO and it's not even close.
If you're visiting Vancouver, Edgewater has a central location next to nightclubs, stadiums, and the waterfront and it by far makes the most sense to play there.
Edgewater also has a very diverse multicultural mix, whereas Villa is about 75% chinese.
IMO more inspiring atmosphere but that's very subjective. Better lighting, better drink options, more out of town tourists, and some of the waitresses are cute (none are at Villa from my experience)
Villa Pros:
The 1-3 action tends to be slightly better at Villa, and there is 2-5 at Villa (Edgewater basically never runs 2-5)
better TV watching and smoking set ups,
better dealers
