Riverking: 1/3 multiple tables 100 buyin ? On max
Sometimes a couple 2/5 tables any tournaments other than the Sunday I saw?
Nagaworld: usually a 1/2 table that starts in afternoon maybe at night some bigger games.
Red fox: cheap turbo tournaments a few nights a week. Which nights does it run? And at which location? I thought I saw a couple different red fox when searching.
Any other places recommended?

Look forward to mtg everyone for some good games and hopefully some great Nightlife!
1) Riverking has usually two tables of $1-$3 holdem daily with the first one going off around 11:30 AM. Min is $100 and max is $1K. Tournaments are on the first Sunday of every month, but February has been cancelled due to the Chinese New year. The next one will be March 3rd.

2) Naga also runs $1-$3, but their primary game is $2-$5, more towards the evenings.

3) Red Fox tourney goes every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 7:00 PM. There are two locations but you're looking for the first one on street 136.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info! Is that Aces place still around? I take it from everything I read that riverking runs the best room?

Ace still runs and depending on the day they'll have one or two tables going. Who runs the best room I suppose is a matter of subjective opinion. But what I will say about RK is that it's centrally located and close to everything. Pontoon is a stone's throw, the Riverside a few minutes away and great restaurants are all around. On Saturdays for example some of us will play at Riverking, head out for a bite, then go play the Red Fox tourney and then end up either at the girly bars or Pontoon. And there's not a single part of that trip that I just described that will take you longer than five minutes to get to. Yazzx does a great job running the floor and the rest of the staff works very hard as well. One of us is always in the room so hope you drop by.

Yup, Ace is still around. Ace runs 5/10 Hold'em everyday from 3pm, and a generally a second table of 2/5 Hold'em or Omaha.

Naga recently has been about 1 table of 1/3 and 2 tables of 2/5 daily. The games start 7-8pm.

As for RK, I'm not quite up to date there so Mike is the one to ask.

As of this writing (2:30 PM) Riverking has a $1-$3 NLH table, one $1-$2 PLO table and the $5-$5 PLO game is just getting underway. Of the two smaller games, very likely that a second table of either one springs up later in the afternoon.

5am? Or did they start playing daytime? What is the exact rake anyway since the recent increase, can anyone post? (I posted the current RK rake ITT not too long ago). Poker ace rake details also appreciated, thanks

I don't know the Naga structure off the top of my head, I remember its $20 cap for 1/3, 2/5 and $25 cap for 5/10 but someone will have to fill in the rest.

As far as Ace our rake is as follows:
1/3, $10 at $300
2/5, 5/5 $20 at $400 (5%)
5/10 $25 at $500 (5%)
10/20 $30 at $600 (5%)

Thanks. What are the steps, 5$ at every 100? What about the 1/3?

This is correct and has been for some time but the word is they increased the amounts/steps for the pot sizes below the cap to change it from a ~2-3% (on average) cap 20, to a ~5% cap 20. Which is a huge difference obv

Pardon the delay, the 5/10 just finished for today.

It's a flat 5% with an additional $1 per $20, for all games except 1/3. We have been testing a few things for 1/3, right now we are doing 10% drop to $5 ($1 per $10 until $50) with an additional $5 drop at $300.

Phnom Penh is the only choice mate, it's not a big country.

Nothing in Sihanoukville?

Also, suggestions of any good hotels in Phnom Penh? Close to the casino's and are neat, clean and hotel staff do not problems with girls coming in?

Sihanoukville is Chinatown now. Maybe some poker games there but nothing else.

Otres and the islands are still fine if you only want to hit beach. GL

Always hear good things about The Bridge Club, it's near Naga and Aeon Mall and a 5 minute tuk tuk ride from the main nightlife area...not sure about their policy on female guests though.

just confirming this is the correct location for riverking. A YouTube video was posted today that said he couldn't find it and mention street 184 or something, I thought it was on 172. He also said that Naga was running 1/2 had two games and 2/5 one game. no 1/3 fyi. thx I can't get the map to load but basically on 172 close to pontoon?

That video has to have been last year, old rk (now poker ace) was located on 184 and 200 street. And last year Naga ran 1/2 instead of 1/3.

Rk1 is on 172 near pontoon.

High-end: Sun&Moon, Budget-friendly: Lux Hotel, Dump: Comfort Star 2, or enquire with the girls from La Cyrcee

Somewhere between 1 and 2: Phnom Penh Katari, not as central but close to Nagaworld and (closer) to Pokerace

Quay Boutique was also good, if you want to see the riverside
S&M you have to reserve for two, else they make some extra-charge like 10 US. No problems with girls at any of these. Make sure they bring their ID though
