New Poker Bar in Siem Reap

Post by Soyoung123 »

There is a new "sports bar" in Siem Reap near Wat Damnak.

Downstairs is a sportsbar.

Upstairs they have poker tournaments. Currently 3 tables I believe. Catering primarily to a Western crowd. Apparently paying around $5000/week for protection.

Thinking it will be raided soon. If not a slippery slope. The last thing the town needs is gambling and casinos.

This place will have the coppers on its doorstep in no time. The Big Man himself said that there will never be any gambling in Temple Town.
