A news article appears in The Southeast Asia Globe talking about the thriving underground poker scene in Cambodia, and Pete Yanhan Chen wins the first-ever World Poker Tour event held in mainland China.
With the online poker games getting harder to beat and the up and down life of tournaments enough to make a hardened pro puke, a lot of professional poker players are turning to the live cash games as a way to pay the bills.
So where are all these juicy live cash games?
One place that seems to be thriving, according to a piece in The Southeast Asia Globe is Cambodia. I know what you are thinking: Khmer Rouge, Killing Fields, and Genocide, but that was in the 70s, and these days more and more people are flocking to this part of the world as a way to reduce their expenses and find profitable games.
