Default Any games in HONG KONG?

I Live in Hong Kong and ive been playing and learning poker for a few months and i love it, each month im making an average of +300net profit. Im 16 and i was wondering if anybody plays holdem/omaha/stud/razz etc. or any other games of poker here in Hong Kong.

I meet up with a group of my friends at least once a week and we play some home games, but rules and all are very loose.

Also, does anybody know if there are any tables to play holdem legally in HK?

no legal gambling in HK except for horse racing. i'm sure there are underground games, but your age would be an issue and I also doubt you'll get much info via this board.

once you're old enough, maybe check out the casinos in Macau, that is about 90 minutes away via hovercraft.

Does the Seattle area have any hovercrafts I can jump on? That sounds like damn good transportation to a poker game.

I leave for HK in 12 days, was hoping there would be a few card rooms I could check out when I go but guess it'll be a bit of a problem.

I can't wait to go to Macau too, will be my first time setting foot in a casino.

Cincinnati Kid and to an extent Lock, Stock and two Smoking Barrels. Lock, Stock is the btter of hte two movies, but less about poker. Cincinnati is all about 5-stud.
