[QUOTE=Mexidan;2844193]I give you a second reason to take plenty of $1 bills: The dollar dances at HK. I'the prefer to give a girl a $1 bill vs a 20 p note. Just makes good financial sense right now with the strength of the Mexican peso.
My two cents.[/QUOTE]Also if you haul off and slap some plump, round culo the girl will demand a dollar for allowing you to indulge LOL!
[QUOTE=Dwd123;2844201]What's a dollar dance?
Thanks.[/QUOTE] Stage dance tips.
I went to HK 4 or 5 times in the past week, sometimes 4 PM, sometimes later. Not wanting to pay $40 for rooms, I got a $60 VIP card and stayed over in Hotel Cascadas on a Thursday ($85 minus 20%) and the next Tuesday ($85 minus 70% I took ladies up two times each night. I was never quoted $150. I started by asking $100, got $120 once or twice but I said no thanks she quickly came down to $100. One time I was eyeballing one with pretty big round enhancements so she came over asking for a beer and when I said yes, her friend with big naturals came over so I bought her one too and she said 'fuck me'. I thought just that was worth the beer cost! They started selling me on a 3-some for $100 each. They said yes to BBBJ. I wanted 2 mouths on my dick like in porn. But in the room they didn't. Both gave good covered head and rode me well and followed directions, so a good time over all. I considered them a bargain because I was considering a 3-some at an escort site for $350 and one was fat, maybe very fat.
I like buying ladies beers ($5 for me, $10 for her) in order to interact. One time the waiter brought the little bottle of wine which he said was $30. I saw it in time to say No and he took it away. The girl said that was his doing not hers and apologized.
I didn't notice any difference in the staff like I expected from reading here.
I somewhat prefer the 4-8 PM time when there are fewer guys there. More women approach me. But there was more energy in the place say after 11.
I feel sorry for you guys who are unhappy with the looks of the women in HK. While there are some that I don't find all that attractive, my big problem is deciding which ones I want of the many I like. And I've gone up with some who were not the hottest looking but had winning attitudes and ended up being great in bed.
While I still like to go to HK, I long for the first time I went maybe 10 yrs ago, when the main stage dancers got nude and were not shy about getting their pussies close to you, and the dancers on the bars would squat and show you their pussies for that $1 tip. Now the only pussies are at the shaving cream shows.
Made plans with one of my Chicago girls to come to my room at Rizo after her shift was over. Decided to show up a little early and see what was doing at HK. Grabbed a booth and was just observing. Not a lot of great talent on this day if I'm being honest, but if you stick around long enough you can always find something interesting. Sure enough after a little while I spotted a very light skinned, brown hair girl with a little bit of tattoos, natural body. I had checked her out when I was doing some laps but didn't approach. A young Indian guy ended up grabbing her before I did but I kept my eye on her from afar. I was expecting her to be a little reserved but she was giving him an amazing lap dance with heavy grinding. Fuck, I knew I should have approached her earlier. After they had a few drinks it looked like they were negotiating. He seemingly asked her for something she wasn't cool with so she ended up splitting. Who the fuck knows what he asked her for. Maybe BBFS or anal. Could've been anything. I let her roam around for a bit to study her some more. Just when I was going to approach her she started texting up a storm. I figured I better not interrupt her and let her wrap up whatever she was texting about. When she was done I went up to her and asked if she was busy and she said no. I asked if she wanted something to drink and she said sure. We grabbed a booth by the stage in the back near the alley and halfway through her first beer which she was sipping slowly, I went in for a big kiss to see how she would react and thankfully she started to kiss me back as well and sucking on my tongue. We continued making out for quite a while and she still hadn't finished her first beer yet. Thought I had nabbed me a winner. She hopped on my lap facing me and started grinding on me. She was licking and kissing my neck all over so I did it to her as well. She asked if she should get a boob job and I said no they're perfect and started sucking on them. She finally finished her first drink so I got her another to continue making out and humping. She had been in the same position for a while so I told her she could hop off if she was uncomfortable but she said no, that she was perfectly fine so we kept kissing. I figured if I'm going to bang this chick I better do it now to give me enough time for junior to recoup for my Chicago girl. I waited until she finished her second drink which she also drank very slowly and told her I had a room at Rizo and if she wanted to head back with me and she said yes. She asked if I minded if she went to the bathroom first and I said sure. I figured she just needed to freshen up. She got up and went to the bathroom but she took about at least 10 minutes. I was starting to lose my patience. She finally returned but she apologized and said she was going to have to bail for now because one of her regulars texted her and was upset that she was spending so much time with me and he wanted to take her back to his room right now. WTF? I guess perhaps this was the person she was texting up a storm with earlier. It caught me by surprise because everything up until now was going great between us. She asked if it was ok and I was kind of annoyed but told her to do whatever she had to do. She apologized profusely and said she owed me one and left. Looking back at it I should have taken her upstairs right after the first drink to have avoided this issue. But it had never happened to me before in all of my years mongering. I stayed at my booth and finished my beer. Took a couple laps after that to see if I could find her but I didn't see her anywhere. Maybe she did go upstairs after all like she had claimed. Then around 15 minutes later I saw her at the same damn booth we were at drinking with an older American man, he looked like he was about 65 to 70 years old and heavy set. I thought wow is this the client she left me for? But who knows, maybe he pays her really well. Which if that's the case, I guess I can't really blame her because I was only going to give her around 100 or 120 at best if she went above and beyond. But maybe this older guy is in love with her and gives her hundreds.
A newer girl I banged BB and wrote a report on couple weeks ago spotted me and came over. She asked if I remembered her and I thought to myself, um yeah I fucked you bare the other week LOL. I said yes I remember you, of course. She playfully got mad because I didn't reach out to her to let her know I was at HK. I laughed and told her I was just kind of going with the flow tonight. A waiter eventually approached us and I got her a drink. We picked up right where we left off, all over each other and she kept sticking my fingers in her pussy so I could feel how wet she was. She said we should go fuck and I asked if she would let me go bare again and she said yes. Well hell you don't have to tell me twice, let's go. We went on to have another great session. It was pretty much the same as last time so I'll spare you guys the details (post# 18339 for reference). The only difference was she was A LOT more wet this time. Niagara Falls wet. It was like a damn slip and slide by the time we were done. I suppose she felt she could let loose a little more since she was familiar with me this time and knows I'm clean. But like last time, she was really adamant about me not finishing inside of her. Last time she let me CIM, this time I opted to COT. We took a shower and she asked if I would walk her back to the club. Talked for a little while more once we got there and she said we should hook up again later if I would like to. Gave her a kiss goodbye and a few minutes afterwards bumped into the girl that bailed on me earlier. She asked if I wanted to go back to my room now and I said nope I literally just came back from there with somebody else LOL. She looked bummed but it felt kind of good to turn her down to be honest. I still had a bad taste in my mouth from how things had went down earlier. Who knows, maybe on a future trip I'll get around to banging her if I'm in the mood and have no other prospects. After that I headed back to my room to rest for a little bit until my girl from Chicago told me she was on the way to finish up my night with her.

This makes my point that the smart girls develop a group of clients that see them consistently and are loyal to them. Especially older Americans that can only visit Tijuana in the afternoon and have to be gone at a certain time to make it home to the wife. I had a very good friend like this and would come almost every afternoon, he was very generous to everyone and girls would come to work just to see him. He would take different girls all the time but would buy the girls he knew drinks even if they weren't with him.
The girl you were hanging with has to be available when her clients are around or she takes the risk of him moving on. I have been on both sides of this situation but when a girl leaves you for someone else it's a little blow to the ego but you just have to understand the business even if this was the first for you.
I remember a few years ago I was drinking with a girl in AB and she said a client of hers had arrived and she needed to go to drink with him. I told her I understand but asked if she wanted to go upstairs first. Luckily she agreed and we had a good session. I returned a few times later in the night to see if she was free but she was drinking with him the entire night so I gave up. Other times in the past when I was always in Tijuana I would just walk into the bar and a regular would immediately leave who she was with to drink with me. Overtime it happens to everyone and I'm sure it's more frustrating when it's some guy a lot older, fatter and not as good looking as you but that's how it's is. Just enjoy all the other girls that give you great service because it will only get worse when you become an old fart like me. LOL.

Like I said, I'm assuming the guy pays her really well, which I completely understand. I just wish she would have been a little more upfront about her expecting another client to arrive or that someone was waiting for her. I guess I'll just see how she reacts the next time I bump into her and take it from there.
On another note I noticed a new camera set up overlooking the main bar. It looked different than all of the other HK cameras. Perhaps there were several more of them but it was the only one that stuck out to me. I'll attach a pic of what it looked like. Someone posted an article the other day about a new law requiring cameras to be hooked up to the police network so maybe it's one of those. I noticed Chicago also has walk through metal detectors now as well.

[URL]https://fox5sandiego.com/news/border-report/tijuana-bars-and-nightclubs-must-link-surveillance-cameras-to-city-police-network/[/URL][/QUOTE]Yeah it's been talked about in the Tijuana papers for awhile and it finally happened last week and some places were closed for not following the rules. They are supposed to have cameras, metal detectors and a panic button. It's funny how so many guys on here put down HK yet they are always the first to make it as safe as possible for customers and girls. I don't travel to the bars in the alley but would imagine they would have to be set up the same way to. This might be a big expense for some but this mayor is really trying to crack down on what she thinks is the cause of the increased violence in Tijuana.

This occurred back in September of 2021. Sound off if you've seen Dita in Tijuana or have info on her. DM me if you want. I'd like to have round #2 with her even though it might kill me. Haha.
It was my third day in Adult Disneyland, and I was making the rounds in HK when I saw a chica dressed all in red standing by the tunnel entrance to Las Chavelas. I had to do a double take. No way. What the fuck! Was I having a vision problems?! Even though she had a decent sized frame, her chichis were way too big for her body. Fucking huge! We're talking Christy Marks sized milk bazookas. I did a walk by. Doing my best to play it cool. The whole time I'm thinking, "Damn! Look at them titties!" As I made it to the front of the main bar she must have noticed because I got caught in what could be best described as some sort of big titty trackerbeam. I couldn't help but to walk over to her. Those massive jugs were pulling me in. I complemented her outfit and asked her name. "Dita" she replied. Then I asked the billion dollar question. "Are those big things real?" She got a gleam in her eye, pushed her big boulders together, and said "Oh, are you a boob man?" She then gave an evil sexy laugh and said "Yes, they're real. " (She literally did that which I thought was hot.) It was game over. I immediately asked if she wanted to grab a drink. She agreed and off we went. I lead us away from the main HK bar into the new section, so it wouldn't be so noisy and we could have a bit of privacy. At the booth I did my best not to mug her right away, but I couldn't behave myself for long. I started by touching her leg and then kissing her shoulder. When she leaned in to grab her drink on the table, I confirmed they were real. Holy fuck. I ask how much for arriba. She replies $100. I tell her that's fine, and I want those huge tits in my face. She smiles, and we head towards the door. While waiting for the elevator in the Cascadas lobby, I ask "what bra size are you? FFF?" I look up and every guy in the lobby is intensely staring at her tits. Haha. She gets a bit uncomfortable and just then the elevator doors slowly start to open. Fucking finally! As soon we get in the elevator, I'm frantically pushing the close door button. After what seems like an eternity, the doors close and she turns away and presses into me. I'm kissing her neck and reach around give those big tits a squeeze. God damn. Huge and soft. So perfect.
Once in the room, she has me disrobe and lay on the bed. She then gets on top of me, takes her huge tits, and wraps them around my head. It was like a sexy horror show where her tits were digesting my head! I loved it. (Who knows maybe she was trying to rob me at the same time? She probably could have gotten away with it as I was in massive chichi heaven.) I titty fuck her for a bit and then she rolls on the condom and gets on top of me. We start out slow but those big chichis have me fired up and I just start hammering her panocha. Long story short we fucked in a variety of positions including in front of the mirror, so I could see them swing. At the end when I finally busted, I went a bit crazy and she thought that I had a heart attack. LOL. What can I say? I love me some big titties.

They aren't hanging out just to have fun or fall in love, this is their livelihood. Of course they are going for the biggest fish they can hook.
The old guy didn't force her to leave him. She gave him what sounds like above average service and time for the drinks, and was upfront about taking another client instead of just ghosting him. Unfortunate end, but no need to blow it out of proportion.

I would say they owe you the respect to finish their drink but some don't. In a place like HK they are looking to go upstairs as often as possible especially the afternoon workers in my opinion which is one of the reasons I don't go in the afternoon. So for them to spend a long time drinking and missing the opportunity to have other clients take them upstairs is bad business for them unless they enjoy who they are drinking with or don't have a regular that is waiting for them.
Nothing24 had bought her 2 fichas that she slowly drank and was having a good time with him. When she went to the bathroom after they agreed on going up a regular of hers was upset and wanted her to ditch him. So she could of just not returned to him and gone with the regular but she came back and explained the situation and he said she was very sorry. He's been around enough and speaks Spanish so I guess she felt he would understand her situation and I'm sure if she catches him in the club next time she will go out of her way to make it up to him.
These girls have to deal with a lot of crazy guys that obsess over them and they learn how to handle it and keep the regulars happy. The same way you have a company that has its VIP clients and when you show up you don't have to wait in line or your a regular at some restaurant and you show up without a reservation but they still take care of you. It's a business and all these girls are independent contractors.
I also don't agree with you going up to the guy she is with and making an issue with him. I've had a guy get mad at me once and tell me the girl I was with couldn't drink with me anymore and she had to go. I just laughed at him and told him she can drink with me as long as she wants. So he got upset and threw a chair across the bar. So the manager came over and kicked him out and the girl took me to her room for the rest of the night. So you just make yourself look like an idiot loser that doesn't know how this game is played.
[QUOTE=DCups;2844832]What a way to go! Good job, Tijuana Fan![/QUOTE]Haha, thanks! Hopefully, I'll see her again sometime even though I might not survive. I don't believe that she's in Tijuana frequently. Saw her once out of the handful of times I went.

She has no obligations to anyone and she does and should do what makes the most sense for her. She's working. If a regular customer whom she recieves a steady income from comes in of course she should prioritize that client. Simple business sense.
Flew into San Diego to catch my Orioles playing the padres. Took the 992 bus to America Plaza to catch the trolley to Petco park. Enjoyed being able to see my O's even though they got smoked by the padres that night. After the game caught the trolley down to la linea and headed across the border. Last time I was here before the pandemic I could get a taxi to take me to Hong Kong Club for 50 pesos although non-speaking gringos were being charged $5 usd. Tuesday night they all wanted 150 and some jacksasses were asking for $10 usd. Fuckn scammers. Eventually got an older driver to take me for 100 pesos. Charging more and with the rate down to 17-1 not good for us with USD.
Anyway made a circuit first to Chicago to see if I good find the blondie reported last week, but no, only saw older girls, nobody above a 6 on my scale. Ducked into Tropical and same thing. So checked into Cascadas, took a shower and headed down to HK. Entered around 11 pm and place was crowded. Lots of girls, but after making the rounds really didn't find the 1 or 2 smoking coed types I usually can find. Was ready to pay, but nothing worth $100 for me. So headed to sleep around 1 am. Got up at 5:30 am went back down, very few girls and guys, no unicorns, so just went to breakfast and did some walking around. Got back to HK around 12 noon, and they were setting up for their Lingerie contest to happen later in the night. Afternoon girls also for me nothing better than a 6 so just watched the tennis and soccer games. Had to head to the airport by 5 pm and sure enough around 3:30 a cute blonde spinner appeared and gave me a sexy smile and came over and without a word started grinding on me. Sexy little thing, carla was from 20 years old from Monterrey and said she just arrived to HK last week. She let my hands roam her body freely and her skin was silky smooth and her body tight.
Never overtly solicited me for a propina or a drink, just was friendly and she had my dick hard. So took her to a secluded table and got her a drink where we contineued getting to know each other. This led to kissing and her letting me finger her discreetly. I only had like an hour to get to the trollel but I said fuck it you only live once so asked her how much to head upstairs. $100 so wasnt going to nickle and dime the girl who had already given me a lot of play for a drink and was just my type. So I asked her if she would suck me sin condon and she hesitantly said ok with a smile. Off we went. I wish I had met her last night when I had my room, because the short time rate they now charge of $40 is fucking stupid. Greedy bastards. But once in the room it was game on. Lots of making out and and we got into the shower together where she blew me. OMG. Heaven. Next to the bed, I had to return the oral, and her pussy was so pretty and tasted sweet as sugar. Really cute college co-ed type, all natural and sweet personality. We fucked great, and finally finished in missionary.
Cleaned up and headed to the Border with a smile on my face.
