Great TR
Cucomonga and it was great to meet you as well bro
A few specs about the live poker scene in Lima :
- first of all, I am primary an online player and have thus only played twice live here and just for a few hours, as the 5-5 Sol game was nitty as frack and quite boring
- As mentioned by Cucomonga, there is a huge gap in between the stakes offered : from the 50-100 NLHE game, min 7k buy-in held at AC, to the 5-5 NLHE and PLO games offered at Marriott. There is also a 5-10 Sol 500 min buy-in at the AC, but I have yet to see it run...
- ATMs here are a biitch and a half
But if they do limit the withdrawal to 700Sol, you can get more if you choose the USD$ option. Casinos do not charge a fee nor commission from USD$ to chips to Sol or whatever combination you want.
- There is a BTC atm in downtown Lima, where you can only buy bitcoins (no selling option). This could be another way to dump your winnings if playing the 50-100 game. I am assuming that you can hold your monies at AC and I believe
boliver mentioned in a post above that you can get a cash advance there... (although I have not inquired, having given up on playing that game considering all the hassles and all
). Also, this table seems like the same regs all the time and appears to be filled up as early as 6pm.
