Pay up Grand Diamond City casino, Poipet Cambodia

Yesterday (April 23rd), I did another VISA run to Poipet, Cambodia, it’s a border town between Thailand and Cambo, they have a ton of casinos all packed in there, lots of tourists go there from Thailand because in Thailand gambling is illegal. So anyways, went there and finally wanted to check out a casino, I chose the Grand Diamond City Hotel and Casino, went inside and I was surprised to see how nice and big it was, it had 6 roulette tables (my favorite), so I sat down, began wheeling and dealing, walked away after winning 8000 baht!

Heading to Phnom Penh Cambodia again to clear up some technical sh*t about me staying here in Thailand for so long. I will post any pics if I get any worthwhile ones. Hope everyone is good

Cambodia!!!! Leaving to Phnom Penh

Heading to Phnom Penh Cambodia (the capitol city) for a little getaway from the norm life in Bangkok. Thailand doesnt have casinos and I’ve been hearing that Cambo has a few of them. Will post pictures afterwards

UPDATE: ok I just got back from Cambo, and man this was a terrible, boring, exhausting situation. I didnt sleep at all because the van was departing at 7:15am, took about 4 hours drive from BKK to Cambodia border, there were like hundreds of little kids with dirty little faces, and dirty stinky clothes non stop begging for $$$, it was pretty sad. Waited in a few lines to get my passport stamped from Cambodia, then back to Thailand side and got stamped back into Thai to reset my tourist VISA so I can stay another month legally.

What a freaking HASSLE!!!!

Ok one of the coolest, awesomest yet most boring places i’ve been to in the world is the Angkor Wat in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Wow it was an awesome site up close, how such a HUGE monument was built thousands and thousands of years ago. Before going into the Angkor Wat you pull up on a trike (motorcycle-type taxi thing) and hundreds of monkeys come out from the trees, wanting food and also just to play, they jump around on people, pull on hair and so on, it’s cute.

by the way, how do you like my fake ass thai Lacoste shirts? hahahaa
