The Metro Card Club has daily tournaments: http://www.metrocardclub.com I think the casinos don't have, but not sure.



They also have some bigger BI events mostly around the time of the even bigger events in the casinos.

I think the poker tables are actually the only part of the gaming area, where people arent allowed to smoke. If they could extend the perimeter, they would.
Im pretty sensitive to smoke as well, but are rarely bothered at Solaire. Seems like you hit a bad day, maybe.

On another note, the feature table of fish? What was the stakes?

Anyone on this forum playing any of the APT events this week?

I don't know how you guys can play poker online here in the Philippines, I got a smart Internet 10 days package today for my tablet and I must have had a least 20 disconnections an hour in the last 2 hours. And I'm in manila not far out in the jungle!

It depends on where you are. If smart is no good, try globe.

i had globe and no problems in Pasay.. but impossible in the province...

Resorts World action was packed yesterday night.. 9 tables .. mostly 25-50, 2 50-100 and one 100 200. Boyet seemed to do his usual captain thing at 100-200, raising hard ATC.. i played mostly 25-50 and a bit of 50-100...
not many rules at that place, which i now try to exploit instead of suffering from... doubling up, table changing to 50-100, again hit and run.. back to original table with minstack.. nobody complains even if some noticed..
dealers were better... maybe their training is before evening time..
i was at a table with some regulars like Robert and some other familiar faces...
more younger asian female players, pretty nitty / not betting the nuts...
older asian female player was all action.. who tilted young very tatooed white player out of his stack over next 15 mins.. pretty poor tilt management..
young local players with a much wider betting range, like middle pair, or bottom pair in position
no smoke at RW and very early tables, which are huge positives and keeps me here longer rather than Angeles... despite higher rent prices.. 2000-2500 php / night places
angeles is 5.000/week.. 14.000/month..

pretty amazing how many girls here are ok with effectively stealing by taking the "can i ask u a favor" "can i borrow......" "never talk to you again" line

Yeah, alot of them will do that.

But I mean, man there are so many poor people in the Philippines.


Of course you're aware of that I know, but I mean really there are alot.

I don't give them money in these situations either don't get me wrong, at the same time I no longer think they are bad people for trying. If I were a 3rd world woman, if I were that poor, if my prospects for life and my future were that thin I'd be hustling for money from white guys as much as possible too.

ive actually kind have been shocked by how often girls decline taxi money / drinks money etc from me. I also went out with alll the waitresses from h&j last night and they paid for all my drinks? lol. there i was expecting to be spending loads

one of you is a presentable socialite living in gramercy, the other is...

Anyone up for a 2plus2 Philippines club night out this weekend? Burns?

the answer yesterday to that question is : yes but..
- exchange rate is 40 !
- minimum is 20.000 php
- exchange back to your usd only within 48 hours...
-> this is at the cashier across the poker room, second floor.. not the 'normal' exchange booth on ground floor

Greenbelt 1 has good rates at very bottom floor

oh i dont begrudge them for it, i know it was gonna be like this before i came over, and fully expected the hustling on dating sites

what surprises me is all the girls i meet just out on the street or at the mall may even try it at a higher percentage than the dating site girls

ouch dude, really ouch

i also would think they would do more begging from the perceived rich dude at gramercy

nah no way, much more value having him in their life

What is the mobile phone number to solaire poker room? I tried the one on Facebook but it didn't work..

going back to england on tuesday and think im spending saturday with some girl so i cant. Will be at frisky h&j with her on friday though if you get bored and want to join at some point. Will let you know about saturday closer to the time if im free or not. Should be back in a month or two if youre staying about



ha k2d...theyre just playing the long game with me.

how much approx will taxi be from gramercy to airport? and how much is immigration/airport tax? If my flight is at 6...should i leave about 2 because lolmanila traffic?

2s probably a bit early

google manila taxi calculator and bookmark that ish, that way when a girl is like my taxi is 400 pesos you can give her the 240 that it really is

man.. thats just going a bit far there dude. She just gave u free sex or bj. giv ethe lady 400 =(

at the very least, bring her to eat some food at that place u love so much.

On a Tuesday leaving at 3 should be fine.

Will cost 300 ish.

Depending when you booked your ticket, the departure tax will be paid already, included in the price. Otherwise 550.

Make sure you confirm which terminal. They are miles apart.

Burnss, just to be sure.. you have been here less than 6 months right? Otherwise you still have to visit immigration first.

I also heard airport tax should be included in ticket these days, still can't hurt to bring a couple thousand also for when you come back here already imo.

Hey guys,

Just stopped into Cebu, looking to reload my Stars account up to 1k. Have US dollars. Please PM me if interested or can point me to some players who might be. Thanks!

this maybe a bit premature but w/e....So two months ago i changed condos. I initially had to pay 1 month + security deposit. The condo owner was away so she got her friend to sort it out with me having to sign contract, however he said he needs to the condo owner to finalise it so took it away and i moved in the same day. I did not get a receipt or a copy. I have extended 1 month and that time i did get a receipt. Whats stopping them just keeping my security deposit? How am i supposed to get this back. If im leaving tuesday (im actually leaving 10 days before my contract runs out) surely they can just ignore me and keep the money?

Whats my play if this happens or is there not a whole lot i can do? Give keys to a friend (with room being unlocked so they can check everything is still working) and not give it back to them until i get my security deposit or? I do still have the condo for 10 more days sooo

As asked for by member : RW' poker room number : +63 9178728190

i would go to them tomorrow and ask about the deposit burns, just do it in a polite smiling "i just want you to know i will be leaving in 10 days and hope that you can have my deposit ready for me on that day" type of way

maybe mention you will come back and want to stay with them again so they have greater incentive

This. mean, if they decide to screw you over, theres not much you can do anyway

Thx
