On a more serious note...

Shadowmoor Draft @ Comics Corner Damansara Jaya @ 9 May 2008

Cost: RM30 for 3 Shadowmoor Boosters

At the end of the draft, there is the option of joining up with a group in the PJ area for poker...

Invitation-only draft above - limited to 8 players, hence please let us know in advance so we can set up the numbers.

How to boost Magic attendance at Pre-release

Came across this LYN thread just now (http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/690178/)

Imagine, instead of just seeing Carlson, Adrian or Fong as judges, we get to see hot models instead... amber chia, etc Unless Carlson starts smothering them with his love...

The models can occasionally hold up display boxes, dish out the prizes.... imagine them parading round with the poster

Advise in looking for hotels near Megamall, try these hotels:

Richmonde Hotel
Richville Hotel

For those who can afford Tarmogoyfs in their decks, you might want to check on these hotels too:

Edsa Shangri-La Hotel
Holiday Inn Galleria Manila
Linden Suites
Discovery Suites

FRANCIS! Oh my god, you are a lifesaver! That's excellent.

I have got a few important questions.

(1) How far is Hyatt Hotel & Casino Manila from the tournament site? I am thinking of staying there, if they have poker tables available (do you know if they have?)

(2) Where are the popular poker card rooms in Manila? I have heard of the Manila Jockey Club - is it far from the tournament venue?

OMG mark...bloody poker addict.... ok ignoring Mark. Though i can afford Tarmogoyf`s in my deck.i cant afford anything else bcoz of the goyf.... how much are the rooms like ?

@ Mark: sent you a PM
@ Hari: shouldn't be that expensive...its because you're booking
online so they charged that much :-D

I suggest richville hotel (http://www.richvillehotel.net/)
Its walking distance from the tournament area. Like Asia Jaya station to Manawerx. Last year, when I check-in there it was only about 30USD for a twin!

Ok, this is a risk but know what, why dont you guys just popped up on the hotel's reception desk and book for a room personally instead of booking online. Given that summer ends already in PH, I dont see Richville being fully book by August :-)

i have a better idea
why dont we send u to pop up and solve our rooms

ill give u cheaper tarmogoyf`s in the future

What I heard was during August, Manila will be in rainy season.

Francis, are any of these near the venue?

Sir William, 39 Timog Ave
Beds From:
MYR49.27 per night

Baywatch Tower, 2057 MH Del Pilar St
Beds From:
MYR76.37 per night

Windsor Inn, 1748 A. Maceda Street, Sampaloc
Beds From:
MYR15.62 per night

Hi Francis, i am trying for Richville hotel, will let you know how it goes

francis is my new found best friend...francis ftw ...

So .. who win FNM at Manawerx today ?? Any secret tech since Shadowmoor is legal .. do tell ?

nice website there, karry
