im now working at JJ's part time.. i just show up whenever i want, get a free meal and then i have to spend 1 hour giving out flyers then i just get free drinks all night. only downside is i have to stay there until like 2.30am or maybe later if its still busy, but then i just go to dolphin where im also allowed to just go behind the bar and help myself to drinks because im kinda hooking up with the owners sister.... and im friends with all the staff

a few nights ago a ladyboy offered me BJ for free and i said no, the next night she offered to give me $10 and i said no, then the next time i see her she is offering me $20 lol.... i know what im doing tomorrow night...

i think im experiencing a different sihanoukville to what u guys have experienced....
Good to hear your alright. It had been a while. How long are you planning on staying in Snooky?

Yup ice really ruins any drink except spirits. Maybe warm is not the right word but like spiv says fridge chilled in Asia isn't great.

Super chilled pumps out here would be the nuts.

Ice has no place in beer, it was either sold to you to warm or you are not drinking fast enough.

much better idea to put beer bottles in the ice bucket not put the ice in your beer

It actually is possible to get properly chilled beer here. It's just that to get it, you need to shell out 50,000+ baht for a proper beer fridge, which most locally run bars are unwilling or unable to do. They don't understand why it's necessary since most of them drink their beer with ice anyway.

Does this also work with following situation:

Before I have moved to cambo, I have let delet my -skrill-account from stars (to avoid hazzles) and now only my €-skrill-account is registered with stars.
That was before last day no problem, cause I have just always converted for instance 10k from $ to € in the stars-software and then I have cashed out or depo with setting € as my preferred currency for the time of the transfer
-> result: no loss in value.

Now finally I have been able to verify my new adress in cambodia and hence now Im officially from camdodia for stars...
-> unexpected result:
Customers who are living in cambodia may only depo/withdrawl in $ according to stars-support, which already tilts me as hell...

So now my question is, do I loose any value, or have to pay any exchange fees or loose in another way any value, when

a.) I make a withdrawl from my stars-account ($) to my €-skrill-account
b.) I depo from my €-askrill-account to stars (here I can then only depo in $)

?

nice that you like it so far in snooky,
but don`t you mean here the daughter from the owner?
Afaik the girl who is mostly at the cashier at dolphin is the daughter of the owner, not the sister?

Somehow I feel like banging a bar owner's daughter or sister occasionally while you bang a lot of hookers on the side doesn't result in free drinks.

i havnt banged her... i havnt even kissed her.. originally they let me and a few other JJ staff have 1 free drink per night... her and a guy called joe, the bar manager (i think) allowed that... then a few nights later i asked for another drink but the sister wouldnt let me pay for it, that happened a few times and then i just stopped trying to pay... then a few nights ago i asked for a drink and she just told me to get it myself, now thats what i do all the time, and all the other guys behind the bar are cool with it ;s

ah sry,
have thought you mean one of the 2 girls who are mostly at the cashier (and one of them is pretty sure the daughter of the owner), but apparently you mean someone else...

Yeah,
Im still in snooky and everything is all right so far,
but do not go out atm as much as at the beginnning cause everything becomes imo at one point kinda boring (even ****ing around radoms), so have now in fact a gf here which takes some time + am pretty busy with sports (trying to bulk up atm) + grinding a ton and coaching as well a lot atm... so unfortunatelly kinda busy atm but I hope that this will change again and I`ll find again some more time and will to go out partying more often...

Anyways,
continue to have a good time here man!

almost certain you will lose value. you can change your skrill account to $. contact support asking them and they will advise you to open a new account and then you email them to get the old one closed. took me a few gos at explaining the situation before i got the go ahead but got there eventually.

Very interesting, thx a lot for the info.
Skrill-VIP-support has seemed always pretty cooperative, hence I see chances that they could understand my situation and aloow me to do this - we` ll see...

xjv_merc, Get a business visa when you arrive in Cambodia, since tourist visa cannot be extended over a longer period.

Hello again, In response to my worried/concerned followers I am alive but yes Cambodia has me.
THE POKER... I hit the inevitable dry patch losing races etc.

The Solution Have a break,
So I did have 2 weeks off got a girlfriend and found out there's more to life than poker (.... did I really just say that?).

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS OUT.....THEY PULL ME RIGHT BACK IN!
So there I was all loved up and not even thinking poker when early Sunday morning dry mouth no water , so we venture down to the bar for a bottle of water, low and behold the chips are clicking. I avoid making eye contact with any players as not to be drawn in, While standing at the bar I explain theres a game on and I can play and make money, she says play no problem . I walk into the card room and there is a unanimous cheer rocking the room to either a) welcome me back after my break b) making my woman feel welcome. c ) cheering the fact I have a woman and am not gay (after my refusal of taxi girls and the likes over the past 2 month.)
I took it with a smile played for an hour 101, dollar profit then back to bed.

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS OUT THEY PULL ME BACK IN
(PART 2)
So come Monday it was time for tournament and I had winnings in my pocket and a very approving girlfriend (I will explain why so approving later) I play just the entry no rebuys. 18 players I was down to last 5 I was chip leader and it was a tight table 2nd chip leader pushes on my big blind. I look at aces call him . I was up against K J os for 3/4 chips in play.flop rag rag q, he gets up starts saying its over then turn is 9 yup 10 on the river.
Result I came 3rd. $114

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS OUT THEY PULL ME RIGHT BACK IN!!!
(PART 3)
Feeling guilty that my woman is just sitting behind me watching me play I try to say lets go bed, walk pass cash table to questions of ''you playin'' , my womans go on if you want to...
Result 60 dollar profit.

AS THE OLD SAYING SAYS ''IN LIFE WOMEN ARE THE RAKE, THE ****ING RAKE''
The first time I tried to tell of my poker skills I was met with I not have money for that I not gamble. Well after the bottle of water game I decided there is no rake so give her 20% for being my rail bird/ talisman. she got 20 dollar then the next night after tourney and cash I give her another 30 dollar again 20% The day after I was havin pasta and white wine I notice she needs a necklace so we go to the market and I spend another $100 on her. Its worth it she only gets when I win and she has a 100% track record of making me win, I be buying her things when I win. that's what I call a win win....

Next Game 7pm Wednesday red fox

Wonderful trip report Robert, im glad too see you are well.

You need to be careful with the white knighting of this girl with lavish gifts and money. $20 in Cambo is alot of cash, and giving it her daily is prob not a wise idea, because the day you stop giving her money she could kick off that you dont care for her no more, or even worse she is with you only for your money.

The only next sensible step for you now is to post underwear shorts of your new GF before me or anyone can help or advise you on the next step.
