Seoul Casino
offsuit, Jul 01 2010
Hey everyone, I'm going to the Walker Hill Casino in Seoul at the end of this month, on the weekend of the 30th, and I heard there's a good run of tournaments and cash games that weekend. Is anyone going or has anyone gone to Walker Hill? Are the players there any good? I hear there's a guy who finished 29th in the WSOP main event and another guy who's made a ton of money and is considered to be the best Korean player in Korea (apparently he owns the poker room in the casino and wrote the first Korean poker book). It will be my first real live tournament [edit] by "real" I mean medium-stake--obviously not my first real tournament, but most of those are for $50 and under [/edit] (buyin is like $250~ USD?), but I think I can take it down. The competition in the town I live in isn't really strong and I've been crushing them pretty much every week since I got here 3-4 times a week. Is the competition much better in Seoul? How well do the good players there understand the game in comparison to an average pro?
Thanks for the info!

Hey everyone, I just moved to Korea to teach English in a city called Changwon. I met some English speakers on the street and they mentioned a weekly game at a bar called O'brien's. I'm on a DS so I'll keep it short--does anyone live here or play there? Maybe I'll see you tomorrow.
Cheers .
