    Nice roundup. Here are some comments from someone with over 20 years living in BKK and Pattaya.
    Getting drunk in beer bars or agosos is about as dumb as you can get. If you want to get drunk do it at home. Don't go out on a balcony if you get drunk.
    DON'T go into an agogo bar unless you are going there to have fun and expect to spend some money doing it. If the bar fine and cost of the girl is too high at an agogo then get one from a beer bar or Thai Friendly.
    Your attitude makes a big difference with how the girls act with you. Dancing or watressing in an agogo every night is boring! I used to have a great time, and meet lots of girls, by simply taking in inexpensive treats like Chupa Chups, individual jellys, cheap jewlery, or toys for the girls. The jia dee farang handing out them made the girls night more fun, and they recipricated. I might pick out a girl but I made it clear if I was just there to have fun so the girls could go for a real customer anytime. Don't forget the waitresses - in fact I usually started with them. The bar staff is your gateway to the best girls.
    Part of a bar girl's job is to drink as much as possible every night yet they can't work if they get drunk so expect the drink to contain little or no alcohol. As an example, Sangsom soda is frequently ordered and it is usually soda water plus just enough rum (or tea) to color it. Expect this and don't let it bother you, it is all part of what the girls need to do - and it increases the profits of the bar so they will stay open for your viewing pleasure.
    Lady drink and run: When that happens quietly ask for the mamasan and tell her why you are disapointed, might not come back, and if you do come back you would never want that girl again.
    If a girl says she has to go dance and you can see by the rotation board she is lying she is doing it because she has decided she doesn't want to go with you. Accept this and move on - there are hundreds more girls to choose from.
    Multiple girls from one bar: Make it clear from the very beginning that you are a butterfly - there is a way to do this with your hands and if you don't know how to do it ask a bar girl to show you. Buy your previous bar fine a drink first, remind her you are a butterfly, and discuss your next choice with her. I have had girls tell me that I was making a good choice, or a bad choice. Ignore what they say at your own peril.
    Photos in a bar: If you really want photos then you better get to know the mamasan and/or manager. If they give their appoval then the best way is to ask the mamason to take the photos - buy her a drink to say thank you. If you get a photo show it to any girl in the photo and be ready to delete if if they ask you to. I have many photos taken in bars because of this approach. Eventually they got to know me and trust me in some bars so I could take photos myself. Sometimes taking a portrait against a simple background (not screaming this is part of a bar) and then giving the girl or mamasan an inexpensive 8"x10" print the next visit works wonders. One bar owner hung my portrait of her on the wall of the bar, others sent the portraits home.
    Remember, don't go to a beer bar or agogo unless you are there to have fun and expect to spend some money. One fun night a week is better than 7 nights being a Cheap Charlie.

      Text book comment🎉any further information about how to spend the night with the girl of your choice? Which restaurant to go if you pick a girl from the walking street, as Bolt taxi can be a long waiting time? What to do if I broke the three days rule?A girl I liked a lot, always finds an excuse to leave early. The first night she said she needed to drop off the key to her sister who shares a house with her, second one she had a headache, the third night she told me she is not used to sleep anywhere else and she needs to watch movies loud while she is sleeping. I was really upset but still can’t stop thinking about her. If I paid the bar fine, do I still need to buy her three drinks for her to reach her quota of the day?

    So in a nutshell, come to Pattaya. Fewer women, higher prices, get ripped off, smile while getting shafted, don't get drunk, don't query your bill, don't challenge the locals when they take the piss. Apart from that have a great time.

    I much prefer barbeers to go-gos in Patters. I'm talking here specifically about the ones that are open to the elements on all sides. This is not just because they are a lot cheaper than go-gos, and it's easier to control the drinking situation within in your favour. Street life in the evenings in PTY is fascinating with always something interesting going on. I can't see any point of being holed up inside of a clip joint and bombarded with truly nauseating repetitious and basically Neanderthal 'music' whilst at the mercy of pushy dancers and waitresses. (Also there is that security backup from the boys that is frequently vicious). OK, I'm now over 70. But I've always felt like this, going back to when I visited Thai for the first time. This was way back in '81 as a 30 year old.

    ALL excellent advice and tips !
    Just 3 extra I could add.
    1. Do Not BF a girl from the GoGo right next to your Hotel. For the rest of your vacation, she may Freak out when you parade another girl past her and into your hotel!
    2. It is best to NEVER ring the bell !
    3. Men from Europe, the USA, Canada Etc. Have to lose the negative concept of "Oh it's dead" or "No one is in there"
    You have to understand that Being the only Guy in a bar/Go Go Bar is a GOOD thing ! Or IF it's just you and some friends" You will be the King or KingS of the castle!

    When a girl makes up all these excuses not to sit with you, what is the point of talking to the mamasan and forcing her to stay with you? You really want to take that girl back to your hotel? It is obvious from the start she is not interested in you. Move on to the next one.

Sad to hear how mercenary the whole scene is. Im back in Pattaya this month but the GC and Beer Bar and Massage scene seems far more worth it.

    I was in pattaya a few weeks ago. I planned to go on your bar crawl and then got lost in the fun of it all. My 4th trip but the most fun I’ve ever had. Gogo bars are my favorite. But only fun if you know how to play the game. I would add some tips:
    1. Always remember to smile. It’s a simple way to vet people/ see whose in the right mood.
    2. It’s rare for girls on the stage to risk rejection unless drunk. If they gesture to you when they’re on the stage and you shoot them down it will be humiliating. That’s why smiling helps. (And by the way a lot of gogo bar girls are drunk cause the bar thinks it’s good for business, what you said about them not getting drunk isn’t always true. If she likes you she’s likely to be willing to get on board with proper drinking. In fact if she asks you for a proper drink when you offer her a drink it probably means she likes you and wants to hang around).
    3. Find a waitress who gives you a good vibe and tip them and buy them drinks. If you keep going back they’ll give you VIP service and even free shots if they like you. But be selective. Drunk mofos trying to get you to buy them drinks won’t even remember you if you do.
    4. The girls going round hassling people are the desperate ones who don’t get enough attention. The quality girls don’t need to do it cause they get invited for drinks constantly. Tell these annoying girls to jog on and say you wanna chill for a bit.
    5. You have to be prepared to spend money. If you don’t wanna spend money don’t go. It’s supposed to be fun.
    6. Some people are just trying to get money out of you but not all. Helps if you have a nice vibe. Some girls are bored and will like the look of you. But be semi vigilante of idiots rocking up.
    7. Things can get awkward after bar fining girls in one place you like. It complicates things and why I don’t think anyone could stay in pattaya too long at one time. It’s hard to be a gentleman when you’re essentially telling girls you like to go away cause you wanna meet someone new. Cant be easy to do what these girls do.

    @andre0baskin Před rokem +6

    Checking you bin serves two purposes. It allows you to keep track of what you are spending and it shows the gogo staff that you are paying attention to the bill. This will reduce the possibility that they will add drinks to your bill in the first place. Some gogo's (Babydolls back in the day for example) will make you sign each bill which is a good policy. If you do find yourself short of money get out ahead of it as soon as you can. Talk to the staff/owner and come up with a plan. You may still get escorted to get the money, but it will be a far more pleasant experience than if they think you are trying to rip them off.

    So true about the Mamasan topic!
    Back in my mongering days, if I planned on hanging at a place for a bit and making a "big night" of it and had money to burn, I'd buy the Mamasan a drink or two. If you tell them what your plans are for the night, they will usually be pretty helpful finding what you are looking for. They will make sure you get drinks when you want them and usually the girls won't hassle you as much because the Mamasan will act as a good buffer. The girls can't risk pissing off a customer in front of her.
    If you are just there to have a drink or two and leave, then it's not beneficial to buy the Mamasan a drink.

    I saw one of your new videos where you were out walking and said that you could really see in your face how much weight you had lost. And when people see you regularly, as you say, it is not something you notice. But today I saw this video that was a month and a half old and you can really see how much has happened in the last while. It looks good.. I also saw your video the other day where you were up in the temple and also the one where you were up at the prison camp. You have to know I care that I thought they were good. And it is in no way a waste of time from someone like me who is sitting in Denmark and trying to keep up. Thanks for your great videos and keep up the good work. I'll try to check out the bar when I pass by Pattaya in 14 days. Of course, I have also tried to look at your Discord, several times. But I just never got it to work.

    When I first came to Pattaya, fifteen years ago, all these rules weren't necessary. Go-Go bars were easy to interact with and prices were really fair. Your list of things to do and not to do in a go-go bar reminds me of why I don't go there anymore. It's too much of a hassle and too much stress. Like you said, it's a business, it's all about them making as much money as they can. It wasn't always like that in Pattaya or even in Bangkok. Having to deal with all these issues takes away from the fun of being in the true go-go bar. For newbies, I would suggest visiting one go-go bar to get the feel of it. But after that go to soi 6and the beer bars all over town. In fact many other girls on soi 6 are as pretty as the girl is on the walking street, that charging five times more. Also , here is a slap of reality. Many go go bars Don't want Indians to come in. Right now, the Go go girls look for and prefer to be with the young Korean boys who dress nice. And remember, the Go-Go girls may let you buy them a drink, but unless you are a young Korean or you very good-looking young man, they will not bar fine with you. You can tell this by the fact they will give you a bar find rate of maybe 5 to 8 thousand baht plus 10,000 baht for the girl. This is a clear indication that girl does not want to go with you cuz she knows nobody would pay these stupid prices. It has become quite ridiculous in Pattaya Go-Go bars.

      I actually think it doesn't matter at all. I always go with draft beer because I hate getting nickel and dimed. But I make a decision quickly -- upon speaking with her for the first 3 minutes. If she's good, we go for bf+St. I quickly bring out the cash and close the deal and give her the money and the barfine and tell her to go change. If she's not what I want, immediately after the 1st drink I politely tell her that 'I need to think things through' and 'thank you for spending time with me' and 'she can go back to dance if she wants'. If it's good, go for it. If it's not, find someone you will want. I actually think it's kind of a bad strat to keep buying drink after drink after drink. End it after the first. Make a decision.

    My experience with both a Thai Bar Girl who movied to Canada and a Mexican Bar Girl who wanted to... is...The mixed drinks you buy them do not contain alcohol...Alcohol is expensive and soft drink mix is cheap...The Bar Tender deleats the alcohol from their drinks and pays them a commission for each drink they can get bought for them.

    The worst post covid phenomenon I've noticed about the GoGo bars is that they ask for all the LT money before you leave the bar. It's the worst in Pattaya. They ask for it all up front in Bangkok too but I was able to negotiate out of it. Pattaya GoGos demanded it. Didn't work out so well for my friend. He paid 6,500 baht at Fahrenheit for LT and BF. After an hour the lady just ran off. After a lot of haggling with the bar he very reluctantly got 2,000 baht back. Too risky to pay everything upfront and this never happened before the pandemic.

    1:20 "an agogo is a business" and that business is to extract as much money in as short an amount of time as possible. If one has been drinking, it is too easy to forget this basic goal and of course the girls will try to distract one from thinking logically.

    I said I had to get my card and go to an ATM (which after I’m amazed they let me leave without one of them going with me, anyway they did) on the way back you have a devil on both shoulders to say bugger it and go pass out (I was leaving the day after next) but I didn’t because I’m not a total as*****. Anyway I got the money, barfined the girl and had a great time.

If they seam nice and not in to much of a hurry for you to buy buy buy, ask them for a fun girl to bar fine. Buy here a drink. Yes it will cost you a few more baht but I think it can give you an advantage. The girls will act better if you and the mamasons are on good terms. Two mamasons I have known in Pattaya have been very good to me. Both have provided great girls whom I have had long term "relationships" with. One of them is now out of the business but we remain in contact. Mamasons can be the devil but they can be a good help as well.
