Drawmaha I think its called? 5 card split pot game, half pot is draw other half PLO . After flop action u can change cards.. If u change just one u get to see it face up and decide if u want it, if not u get 1 more face down . Can change as many as u want

I dunno if thats official rules or not but thats how Red Fox played it.. They played some messed up version of OFC too

where is mingmen PP？ is it running 24hours game？

Special

Game starts at 7pm. Recently has been 2-3 tables 2/5 Holdem this week. Ending between 2am and 8 am depending on the day. Easiest way is to message the Poker in Cambodia page on facebook and they'll get you sorted.

Someone responded to a travel post on the Reddit poker page today saying that Naga gives a hotel room for playing poker a certain amount of hours. Anyone heard of this? Trying to find out how many hours you need to play per day to get a free/reduced rate room.

Thank you for using what little battery you had left to respond to my post. Much appreciated.

Whats up with the PLO action at pokerking?
What is the reg/rec ratio in the games?

fb saying 72poker now has $10 cap? for all games?

72 cap $5 on 1/1 and 1/2 NLH

$10 cap on 1/1 PLO

i nearly always say good luck to the obvious recs who are likely in very light vs good players

i also say it when someone i've been talking to is all in vs someone who hasn't spoken


don't think i'd say it vs someone i considered a friend though, but could easily see it being appropriate to placate a fish

Games have been somewhat dead there recently.

Ming Men is doing a weekly PLO game tomorrow that might be worth checking out. 1/3 with a 5 bringin at 7pm.

Poker Atlas appears to no longer be working for Nagaworld

I would like to grind some live cash in Naga
Any reg from here that could be so kind to give me some infos about the field? :

-Which limit runs the most?
-How many 2/5 usually there are?
-How is the Reg /Fish ratio?
-Are regualar as good as EU/USA regs?
-is it 9max?

I aslo heard in some videos there is a good amount of criminality in the city, is it true? should i get concerned of being possibli robbed out of the casino?

What works as proof of address for poker sites in Cambodia? Anyone had any successful experiences uploading poa here?

Played a decent amount of hours at Naga recently. You'll find:

• 3-4 tables of 1/3 by late afternoon, with as many as 6 tables on busier nights
• 1 table of 2/5 by late afternoon, with as many 3 tables on occasions
• A higher reg/rec ratio than most rooms
• Regulars are often competent and studied (would need clarity about what you mean by the the EU/USA reg distinction to comment further. The reg population at Naga is mostly Japanese, Korean and Chinese, as well as some locals, Euros, Americans and Aussies, although tbh I'm wary of pegging player tendencies to nationality).
• 9 max games

I spent the majority of my time inside the casino but when going to the supermarket or laundry felt safe. I can't comment on bars and the "night life" (not my scene, I'm afraid).

Overall, I'd say the games tend to be a rake trap, particularly if you're not conscious of how much money is leaving the table. The rake is 10% capped at 5bb for 1/3 and 4bb for 2/5 plus BBJ; the dealers, who are mostly excellent, also expect to be tipped, which is fair since they are reportedly not well paid. The rake trap is a result of (a) the reg/rec ratio (b) presence of short-stackers (often 2-3 at a table) (c) players hitting and running without showing game-ecology awareness (d) relative absence of deep stacks.

The rake-trap also, I'd argue, is an unintended effect of the generous room comp (free for 8 hours of play each day). There's a bunch of players logging hours for the sake of the comp: chopping blinds, rarely entering pots, drinking free ice-coffee, etc. I sat and played some of the worst games I've ever played for this reason (e.g. would see five pots in a row where the blinds chopped and the next five would be CO raise 3x, fold, fold, fold, fold or MP raise 3x, fold, fold BN 3bet, fold, fold etc.,). If you beat NL25 or better online you might turn a profit at Naga, so long as the variance gods are on your side.

The only saving grace was that the rooms were excellent, not to mention the free breakfast. Ever heard the saying "there's no such thing as a free lunch"? I'm mean, technically the lunch wasn't free but you get my drift.

Afraid of what exactly? It's just liquor and bargirls nbd

Rama, it is just a saying in English, not that he is literally afraid! It is more of a British expression of civility, in the tune of "I am afraid I do not understand what you are saying" kind of thing.

I guess this post means I have no future in comedy and have to stick to poker :'(

The rake is 5%. No Bad beat jackpot or similar.
2/5 is not the way you describe. I guess comp-hour-farmers are mostly playing 1/3, which is understandable.
I am making reasonable profit at 2/5, and I also non-stop drink free tea/coffee. So consider changing your strategy there ; ) Btw beer is free too.

Lmao. Dw bro i lol'd.


Btw u dont gotta tip the dealers at naga, like nothing will happen if you dont tip. Noone cares.

Relatively safe, just like the rest of SE-Asia. Snatch and run type of crime is more common: moto guy grabs tuktuk passenger's handbag, or pedestrian looking phone at hand etc.

Yes, you're right. Rake is 5%. My bad. I agree that 2/5 is a better proposition, although the daytime game looked so so (I did sit a few times). The rake trap scenario applies more to the 1/3. Don't get me wrong: the comps are excellent ($1 per hour for restaurant quality food, too). And yeah the beer is decent. I logged 200 hours over two trips, with my results depressing compared to Manila. I certainly experienced some nasty variance, so acknowledge there could be a negative bias to my summary.

Brother, they care. $1 USD means a whole lot more to them than us. I could buy a decent meal or get a bag of laundry done for $3. Generally, I tipped after bigger pots. It's not quasi-mandatory like the USA, but there was a fair amount of tipping to dealers and service staff when I was doing my 8 hours in purgatory each day.

He-he. I'm way too civil: rather be a lawyer than a poker player. But, yeah, generally, found locals to be friendly. Only afraid of myself, that's all.

remember when i was in sihankouville during the offseason and sometimes going to or from queenco to another casino the path would go over a completely dark stretch with just dirt road and trees - was infinitely sketched out but nothing came of it - the only time i've ever been nervous about getting mugged in asia - but not nervous enough to not walk through it - just enough to realize it was possibly pretty dumb to walk through there in the middle of the night carrying the amount of cash i was carrying on me


got pickpocketed once entire time i was in asia, was waiting in a large crowd for a bus - worst part about it is the guy was very obviously creeping up on me and kept putting his hand on my shoulder so i grabbed wallet and transferred it to front jacket pocket and zipped it shut and kept my hand over it, things seem fine as i board and i drop my guard figuring that's certainly enough to get him to scatter but then i feel the wallet getting pulled out but i'm squeeze in by others (probably in on it) so i can't really do much about it and by time i got out he was already half a block away - i gave chase but dude blended into the crowd very quickly - only had like $20 in it but was super annoying to get all my cards canceled and renewed
