What I think about the typhoon in Manila, Part 1

This is a tape of me coming to Manila again.

Since the beginning of this year, I have been visiting the Philippines more and more frequently.

I have a mistress, I've become addicted to KTV girls, I've become addicted to gambling.

You may have many thoughts, but...

There is nothing at all.

It's just that the number of visits has increased due to work.

However,

it is a country where you can enjoy entertainment to a certain extent, so I enjoy my after-five quite a bit.

By the way,

this time in Manila,

it feels like I came with Typhoon No. 5.

It wasn't a direct hit, but it was quite windy.

* This is the situation on Tuesday this week.

In the wind, I forgot to bring underwear with me, so I went to a nearby Robinson to shop and eat.

First of all, I thought I wanted to eat something Filipino-like, so I went to a restaurant that looked like it, even though I wasn't sure what it was!

It was Filipino food.

This set cost 315 PESO

The chicken seems to be fried with sweet and spicy garlic sauce.

Fried bananas?

The taste was so-so...

Now, let's go to the casino in the evening!

While waiting for poker, we'll play baccarat.

I'm doing really well at baccarat this time.

Maybe my sixth sense is sharp?

I'm gaining chips with a hit rate of about 60-70%.

I was defeated badly last time and the time before, so this time I have a feeling I'll get revenge.

(Currently in the black)

The table finally opens and we move to poker.

I move with the chips I made from baccarat.

The cash in front is for coffee. (My card points were no longer usable!)

Now, it's time for some fun poker.

I'm still new to cash games, so I'm feeling very nervous.

However, I feel more calm than last time and am able to analyze my hand.

The table members this time are mainly Filipinos and Koreans.

I'm the only Japanese person.

Actually, I lost twice, but both times with high cards

"AK off suit" and "AJ suit"

in an all-in match.

I was very disappointed, but it was all down to luck.

I was able to make up for the loss I lost in poker by playing baccarat again.

I lost at poker, but it was still fun.

Recently, the number of poker players seems to be increasing due to the influence of YouTubers and others.

I am one of them, but gambling is prohibited in Japan, so I cannot play for money.

What will happen with Japan's IR?

I'm looking forward to it.
