Preparing for 3 weeks in Angeles (2nd trip) - Pinalove.
On June 1st I will arrive for my 2nd trip to Angeles. First trip was 3 years ago. Mostly I have been going to Thailand, mainly Pattaya for mongering. Comparing experiences I actually think mongering is better in Thailand, but I love to play poker and there is plenty of poker rooms in Angeles with a lot of fish.
This time I decided to try out the online scene. Yesterday I sent out a ton of messages to most (non-uggies / fatties) age 18-29 that had been online in Pampanga the last ten days on Pinalove. Already I have twelve short time offers. Three for 1.5 k, seven for 2 k and one who won't budge from 2.5 k.
I'm not sure if I will take advantage of any of the offers, they are mostly for backup in case I don't find anything nice on the ground. A couple might be lookers, if there pictures are accurate.
The Pinalove scene seems to be a good option if on a tighter budget. This time, however, I have decided to not be stingy on my mongering vacation. My daily budget (after hotel) is 10 k for entertainment, food and transport. On top of that I have budgeted 100 k for poke, are even though I made 75-80 k profit in 16 days on my last trip. But no poker player counts his winnings in advance.
I will stay at Pacific Breeze, which I think is in an ideal location. Really close to walking street and right next to Wild Aces poker club.
