Poker at Genting, Malaysia - favourite casino to gamble

I head to Genting Highlands, Malaysia to play some poker. It is in the mountains, located about an hour from Kuala Lumpur airport. In 2019, Disney was sued by Genting for pulling out of an agreement to sponsor an outdoor theme park as Disney did not want to be associated with gambling. However, Genting is so much more than gambling. Besides gambling, there is a large mall, 2 theme parks, variou...

Trying low stakes cash game in Prague, Czech Republic. (Poker at Casino Ambassador)
Переглядів 1,5 тис.Рік тому
Had 2 hours to spend in Prague, Czech Republic. Did not want to play a big poker game with the limited time, so I went to Casino Ambassador to play some low stakes poker. There were tables offering mid to high stakes but I elected to play in the lowest stake available just for fun. Found it interesting that the lowest game offered is a minimum CZK 1,000 or approximately €40 buy in. The poker ro...

Rake cap is way better than Sky Casino, Genting, Malaysia which was about 11x the big blind. This is 5x the big blind. In the US there are still some places where it's only 2.5x the big blind.
The rake caps are obscene; low limit is not beatable long term. Equivalent to $32 cap in a 1/3 game in North America where the rake is usually capped between $5 and $8. It's a rip off. You'd have to play 50/100 to have a decent rake but the competition has to be 1/3 level in terms of skill to be like a 1/3 game in NA. It doesn't cost the casino anymore to deal a higher limit so the rake shouldn't go up. They're just trying to rip off the customers and make poker like every other casino game; no win. Find home games.
@eyeofchorus6313 it's probably a supply and demand thing. In the US you probably have multiple rooms to choose from but this is probably the only legal room in Malaysia if I'm not wrong. I agree with you that the rake is way too high though. The only redeeming factor is that it is an ante game so it naturally plays bigger than the stakes suggest
How you stack off AK on a 884 board?
should have jammed pre
Is that rake real? Rm300 is like $70
yea but that is the maximum
Hi what chips do u guys use to play?
Casino chips?
@geniuspig3662 the chips in the poker room are different from the table game chips. But some players use it interchangeably
Do u need to be a gold in genting before u can play poker at level 3?
@gunawangohzhukok8572 need member, doesn't matter if gold or silver. Because level 3 has a gantry, need to tap the member card to enter.
Thanks for sharing!
haha i also busted out of all tournaments with few more almost ITM. the structure was too fast.
@alfredchew467 ikr haha, every tournament felt like a turbo structure
Cool movie !
if i play enough hours can i get a free room?
if i play enough hours ,will the casino give me room?
No but you get free dinner everyday at walker hill. Not sure if they changed
thx for your helpful information.
I have lived in Korea for many years. Korea is NOT a country to go to if you are wanting a poker vacation. The one game that runs regularly in Seoul that he showed has horrible rake and no real benefits. If you have another reason to visit Korea, you can likely find a private game somewhere, but since its technically illegal, I would just wait until you get back home. However if you are an absolute addict, getting arrested is extremely unlikely. Again, rake is high though. Also, Koreans are extremely tight as are the Japanese that seem to visit in certain seasons. They aren't world beaters but they are good enough, so you can't just run over them either. The Chinese/Russian players are mixed. Russians often either don't have or are unwilling to buy in to cover the table (something you used to be able to do) he mentioned a 500 usd equivalent max (that makes the game unplayable if true). The Chinese players can be quite skilled as well, but usually if they come over with non poker chips that they won at baccarat that's when you can make the money if they don't draw out on you. I saw a Chinese guy break a whole table just going all in again and again. But that was a one time thing and he said he was trying to bust because he had a flight soon, but instead busted us. If anyone sees this video that was there that day they could confirm this actually happened as it would be hard to forget :D
@@D.D.-ud9zt what about the legal poker clubs along the streets?
@@TheW12345 That's like saying the glass windows with the prostitutes are legal.
GOATED VIDEO MAN. I REALLY LOVED IT GOOD JOB. I HOPE U DOING WELL IN LIFE. VERY INFORMATIONAL JUST WHAT I NEEDED. MY GAMBLING JOURNEY JUST STARTED AND I HAVE YOU TO THANK. WHEN I WILL BE GIGA MEGA RICH I WILL SEND U 1 MILLION DOLLLLARRRS. BYEEEEEEEEE :))))))
How's the cash games?
No cash games, there was only tournaments there.
how much is about the bigblind level?
1k/ 3k Krw mostly. Rare but saw 2k/ 5k Krw
@@TheW12345thx brother ,your channel is so helpful to me,good luck and happy grind in south Korea!
Best place you have played poker in Asia with a beach close by please with poker tournaments daily please?
Hey there, I think it is hard to find a place with both daily tournaments and near a beach. Daily poker tournaments, maybe Taiwan CTP clubs. Near the beach, I'm not so sure, maybe cash games at resorts world sentosa in Singapore. (Havent played in either places)
@@TheW12345 thanks for this detailed reply very much appreciated I will screen shot this and save it and search have a great day sir bet with the best good draw to invest fold all the rest
thank for sharing such rare footage!

How was the cash game at Paradise City Incheon? I am planning to play there for a couple of days.
GL. From my limited time it was tight but kinda soft. Definitely easier than the other Paradise casino in Seoul.
@@TheW12345 I played at WH precovid and it was tight too. Lol
@@doraemongogo6144yes, very few splashy players. Most probably due to high-ish rake
@@TheW12345 got it. Thanks.
Whats the name of the restaurants u go to?
Ohh which item do you want to try? All shots were from different places in the genting mall. Most were around level 4 sky avenue mall
Next tournament Jan 25 to Feb 5 2024!
UA-cam recommended this for me, wasn't disappointed! Thanks from Finland
does the tournament area in highlands have cash games as well? Or do players have to head over to sky casino for cash games?
Tournament area doesn't have. You have to walk to sky casino for cash games. Only 10 min walk so its ok
@@TheW12345 Do they accept youtrip cards to register for the tournaments?
@@bobbytang9924 sorry not sure about this, most people I saw bought in with cash. Maybe you can try but be prepared to have to withdraw from atm if it is not allowed. Also can let me know because I also dont know lol
How many table for cash games
@@bobmarley3377 I think there was about 6 cash game tables available. But when i went there weren't many players only 1 or 2 tables filled.
How much tk enter tournament?
Most are around RM1,000 to RM1,500. You can google 'Poker Dream Malaysia' to see next schedule for Jan 2024.
Hi , any t&c to in the poker room? I go genting last time (15/11/2023) , and i cant found the room and ask the staff , their face like dont know😅😅 need any level of member casino to join?
Hi, sorry to hear that. Last time I was there (Aug 2023) it is at level 3, you need to tap your casino member card to enter level 3. My card is silver which i think is the lowest. Surprised the staff was unable to help
great video as always
Thanks!
Very informative and good video! Thanks!
How are the cash game schedule? Do they run all day or only certain times?
If i recall correctly: They usually run when the first table fills up which is around 11am. By the evening there will be about 4 tables running. The last game will break in the early hours of the morning (saw 4 handed table running at 5am)
@@TheW12345 Thanks for the info!
cool, I played in a few of these locations, and despite the high rake, they are quite nice
pretty cool, I didn’t know that Malaysia had live cash. Are there any MYR 10/20 or 20/50 games running at all there? weekends?
10/20 runs at night sometimes. Not sure of bigger games (wasn't there for very long). If you come during the tournament series they change the minimum stakes to 10/20
perfect
@@TheW12345which part of casino? I never seen poker table there
@@izl8604 level 3 at sky casino. The escalator from level 2 to level 3 is difficult to find, ask the staff if you cannot find it
