Anyone to ask about living in the Philippines? - Page 221

I find their burgers to saucy its a flavour overload.

Even when you say no sauce they just seem to put a big dollop of one sauce instead of the two they normally do

How tough is it to obtain an extended visa to stay in the PH? Is multiple re-entry allowed each year?

as long as you can put long pants on you should be able to get an extended visa

If you know the right ppl in Cebu, you can get a year long visa. However it's not multiple entry. The best option is to find a service who will pick up your passport every two months and extend for you rather than wasting your time in immigration.

Anyone know how much a taxi from manila airport to Clark will be?

I am guessing 3kpeaso should be enough to cover it?

You can get it as low as 2200 if you book it before hand from places in AC, the most well known and trusted is Margaritha station and they charge 2500 or something IIRC. http://www.margaritastation.com/

I usually just take one outside the Airport, It's 3000-3500 if you dont bargain but you get a nice big car for yourself.

which hours are you cash game grinders doing? Ive tried to do early mornings but games seem to run decently just for an hour or two after 7am. guess best would be just 1am-6am?

few observations from P. Burgos street if you ever decide to wonder around there. if you dont want to get drugged, dont go to: Bourbon street or some other place with the word "Kiss" in it. if you want to get high on E though then its another story. also placed called "high heels" is the sickest scam ever. they try to get you into the "vip room" and then add extra chargers afterwards.

on more positive note any interest to this? for a table or a vip table? http://www.philippineconcerts.com/ta...of-asia-arena/

Burgos is a fickle beast as sits clearly aimed at the business market. Bottoms will always be my favorite bar in the Philippines best smoking room in the world.

was drunk and booked 7 nights in Princess Madison hotel in Angeles. After reading some reviews of the place I think I've made a horrible mistake.

So now, not only am I gonna be stuck in the worst ****hole city on earth for 7 days but I won't even have a nice hotel room to escape to. ****ing bull****

Gonna spend every waking moment in the casino playing whatever poker game is running, then go to the bars and get wasted while waiting for the games to start running again... sigh this week is gonna suck

Played wild aces. The standard of play of locals is pretty nitty weak. Can be some pretty decent action when you get the right combination of drunk tourist/crazy Korean. Rake is ridic 10% 300 max.

That rake isn't beatable at 50/100 peso... does the game run bigger than that at Wild Aces?

I'm moving to Manila in just over a month. Been there a good few times before. Is there many people off here based there? I'm going to be in the fort I think.

Margartia station airport pick up service 5*'s!

Easy to find the driver, nice new car and he knew exactly where to go etc. We left Manila airport heading to AC at 5.15pm on a Friday, somehow he got to the NLEX in just over an hour and the only time we stopped was at traffic lights, **** knows what route he took, but it was a great drive through the city.

Well worth the 2600, used them again to me back down to Manila on Sunday. And will defo use them again if i ever land at Manila going to AC.

Good to be back in Manila for two days, after it was completely doing my head in when i left last time. I defo have a love/hate relationship with that place
