Hong Kong Club Reports

[Captain Solo]

Most HK girls are not doing much business, fichas or arribas, hungry and desperate. They are working for HK for free.

The girls prefer to go to the hotel to make more money quickly in bed over the measly fichas in the bar, but HK would rather have them knock down 10 fichas an hour with some suckers and make $60 for the bar.

The bros can always use HK coupons to get free drinks, ogle hot girls all night for free, and pick up hot street girls for $20 session in Cascada's $6ST rooms. HK just hates this strategy.

Nothing.

I was in HK Wednesday night the same time. Would have been fun to meet you.

I noticed business drop off as early as June this year when the chicas kept insisting $100 and Cascada was pushing the $30 room option with 2 drinks. Guys were not taking chicas to hotel as frequently as before. Most girls just hang out all night not bought drinks, not taken upstairs. It's sad but the girls are still trying to push prices higher, like $150 a session.

I have done quite a few girls with low local rates. I would steer the noobs to those girls and ask them to go with those rates. For noobs loaded with too much money, well, I would let them have the pleasure of spoiling their sweethearts hehe.

I think it is the intent of HK to use inflated chica and fucked up bullshit prices to keep the guys in the bars as long as possible so that the guys can spend their money on drinks instead of the girls. Guys usually come to HK with a limited wad of cash. If the guys go arriba, he's not going to have much left over for the thieving waiters. They are going to spend it on something (drinks) if they cannot afford a chica. The chicas are too proud but stupid to figure it out that they are actually losing out business to the bar, their real competitor. For HK management, drinks are the money maker. The girls are the bait. Waiters are convicts. And customers, the suckers, especially tourists.

I went through the SENTRI lane without a SENTRI card once. They sent me to secondary and gave me a lecture about how, if I did it again, they might impound my car and fine me USD $10,000.

Thats BS, you actually get 3 strikes if you're traveling by car without the sentri pass. I accidentally went through sentri lane a few months ago thinking it was ready lane. The customs agent said if I did it 2 more times I would get fined thousands of dollars, I forget how much, I think five. He gave me a small sheet with details, don't think I have it anymore though. I guess they're willing to accept you going through sentri lane by accident twice, but three times and it's no longer an accident.

—————.

Anyways, went to HK this past Wednesday night around 8-9 pm. To my surprise there was an abundance of girls working in the club. Way more than any other time I can recall around the holidays. Even saw a couple of my top preferred girls working but I was in the mood for something new. Unfortunately didn't catch the right vibe with any of them. Most girls were actually just hanging around seemingly not interested in convincing mongers to take them upstairs. Kind of weird considering everyone can always use some cash around the holidays. I asked a few how much for arriba just to stir up some conversation and they all quoted $100 firm. I took pleasure in laughing in all of their faces and scoffing at their quotes especially considering they want to charge $30 standard room rates now. We must all hold strong at $80 MAX. Tip can be negotiated depending on their performance. Otherwise I would rather evaluate the talent on the streets. Some diamonds in the rough out there once in a while for a fraction of HK prices.

This was via pedestrian entry to US. Not auto right?

Has anyone experienced the border agents allowing them to go through without Sentri / global-entry card?

The HK shuttle dropped me off at the corner of a street and told me which way to walk. There was a really long line of Mexicans, but I saw this Asian guy with a suitcase just bypassing the line of Mexicans, so I followed him. Without sentry and I supposed to line up in the same line as the Mexicans? Or is there a separate US citizen line? I have only done research on putas and very little on border crossing etc jaja.

It can be difficult to process and remember that most of the people in line are Americans. It took me years to spend spend a minute to think about it. Basically once covid hit and the line looks like same people then you know most are Americans. Because Mexicans weren't allowed in. Or they are dual citizenship. You are supposed to stand in line at the back. Now, many days I waited 4 hours in line and saw couples beg to go through without sentri and they were permitted. Especially when 1 at least had sentri. On very rare occasions only once that I saw, they had a 3rd line for Americans. I do not think, that right now the policy is to let Americans cut the line. It was more likely the guy didn't take you as a daily visitor and just figured he would be nice.

Likely the border agents that let him through Sentri mistook the passport card for a Global Access card, as they look similar and between the two gates one must navigate, it is usually 20+ meters from where they waive you through.

I think that he just got lucky, as I have seen the border agents challenge Sentri / GE card holders at the two gates.

I agree, I just took the HK shuttle back to the border. Then skipped the long line by going to the sentry line. Even though I don't have sentry, the border agent just let me through.

[Rambo1969]

Sounds like he walked through, because he took the HK shuttle to the border.

I too take the shuttle to the border and walk into USA.

The shuttle stop ends out of sight of the place where the border guards are. You need to walk around a curved path about 1000 ft or so.

So the guard has no idea how you got there because the shuttle does not stop anywhere in sight of the border guard.

I am pleased to hear the guard let him walk through without waiting in line.

Will try that in the future if I take friends without the card.

Correct, through the pedestrian line. Yes, the border agent let me through with just a passport card, he paused a bit, then waved me through.

I drive in about once a week, because I need my car for my non-monger activities.

Crossing back can take hours, and if you're driving around late at night in some tourist area, I think you're a bit more likely to get stopped by the cops. But aside from one time when I was driving drunk, it's never been a real problem.

[WombatEd2]

all my visits have been drive-through. Is there a risk I've been taking without realizing it??

I've read many folks walk across.

Oddly, all my visits have been drive-through. Is there a risk I've been taking without realizing it??

Nah, just increases the amount of crap you can get from cops and possible wait time at the border.

I always drive across. I do my business down in Tijuana, park my car somewhere (like the hotel I'm staying at overnight) and Uber or Taxi over to the Zona, and then leave.
