Albeit less, there are still poker players here.
I believe this thread served and this city allures to young single male poker players. Lots of time has been spent talking about places to go at night, restaurants and women. This thread -speaking as if it is just a continuation of the first thread- started 5 years ago while most of us were in our mid 20's. Although a lot has changed in this country since then as LC notes, the biggest thing is that the lives of the poker players around here have changed. People are getting married and having kids. They are starting projects other than poker.
I believe this place is still a great place for poker players and anyone looking to try something new during their mid 20's. The effect of the economic changes that LC alludes to I don't think have much effect with poker players coming from the outside to live here. There are a few more hassles but it is manageable. If you're trying to do something in addition to poker, yeah, there are a lot of changes you have to manage.
