I've been working on my game since November with almost no results but that all changed in early May 2013 when I visited Sin City. I went there an AFC and came back a changed man.

In the weeks following my trip, I quickly began to develop my game quickly to the point where I'm meeting and closing on more woman then I can handle with barely any rejection. I thought I'd start this journal to share my stories and hopefully give others the confidence to discover their game and get some feedback to improve mine.

Dear Optimist, Pessimist & Realist,

Just to let you know that while you guys were arguing about the glass of water...... I drank it!

Sincerely, the Opportunist

I don't really frequent one single club since I like diversity and new challenges but some clubs that always are in the mix (usually because my friends want to go) are:

Muzique - Okay music, a bit overpriced, girls are pretty decent but I haven't had as much success as I'd like there.

Tokyo - I really don't like the place but I've had endless success there. The terrace is nice and I know a bouncer there. Generally known for Thursdays (rich McGill girls) and Sundays (Strippers and out of towners)

Rouge - 21+ but lots of young ladies with older guys. Non alcoholic drinks are free but you gotta show up early to make it in and it's fairly pricey.

Unity - Yes it's a gay bar but on Saturday nights it can boast a ton of straight women. One night there were 6-800 people and 2/3 were straight women. I have a friend who frequents it who let's me know when there are a ton of straight women. I've had a ton of success here and cover is cheap.

New City Gas - Dunno if it's really a club in the end as much as a concert hall but the smoking area has been a great place to meet people. Though pricey to get in.

If your from Montreal do you have any suggestions on new places to check out? I do my best to try and hit a new at least one new place every second week.

Something I should have specified in my OP is I that avoid general PUA terms (e.g. DHV).

Last Sunday Night - Sass, the girl I called a B****

So last Sunday, I was out with a group that I met visiting from NYC the night before. We ended up in Tokyo bar (not the city) and long story short I'll admit I was not always standing straight (puked multiple times), though as usual I still held myself together .

I came downstairs from the deck and went to the bar to grab a glass a water. I stick my hand out to signal the bartender and that's when an African American women (I'll call her Sass) to my right says "Hey, I was here first!" in a very sassy voice. I turned to her and straight up said "B****, I'll order for you too" and gave her a smile (all natural). I would say she was an HB8 for most guys.

She was stunned silent. I turned away and flagged down the bartender and ordered while ignoring her. After 30 seconds she finally got back to reality. I felt her look at me so I turned and she started dancing, so I started dancing and quickly pulled her into grinding. (Hands down the best grinding girl I ever met). The drinks come so I grab mine and tell her "sorry I gotta go find my friends, maybe I'll see you later tonight". Again I caught her off guard).

About an hour passes and I'm dancing with an HB5 since my friend is literally Fclosing with the HB5's friend on the dance floor. Then I see Sass dancing, I looked at her and proceed to pulling the HB5 closer then spun the HB5 away and reached out to Sass and pulled her in. Within 5 minutes of grinding we were making out against a wall/couch and I had the opportunity to FClose (guaranteed).

In the end I said I gotta get back to my friends since I didn't want to Fclose her. As I mentioned in my OP, I keep my standards high and she's not my type.

Random notes: Didn't know her name, she was from Brooklyn (one of my friends said he talked to the group she came in with), it was the first time I've used B**** straight up as my first word to an HB, I don't regret not taking her home, I made out with 3 other girls that night (perhaps a few more stories to come).

Any feedback on how to improve on that would be great, I'm sure I had to have made some mistakes and there's always room for improvement.

F1 Weekend - Friday Night

F1 Weekend is huge here in Montreal and there are events EVERYWHERE.

Unfortunately (or so I thought at the time) Friday night was the birthday of a friend of mine so I ended up at a completely new place without a special event. It was Blizzarts "Get Nice" Friday night, first place at a new location.

I walked in and started to talk with the bouncer while paying cover. I walked through the bar to find the booths that about a dozen of my friends were occupying, said hi to everyone and was introduced to a few other people.

I decided it would be good to gain some social proof in this new place. I fist bumped the DJ and headed to the bar. It was packed but I made good eye contact with the bartender and explained a pretty complicated mixed drink that I recently came up with. I went back to the table and was back at the bar for another within 5 minutes. Not only did she remember my drink but introduced me to the cocktail waitresses and the other bartenders.

Girl #1 (HB6) - Warm up

So after boosting my social proof I went back to my friends and there was one that I only met once before. She's the ex of a friend who I don't see too often but has backed me up anytime I needed him as a wing or cock block.

She asked me how I knew all the bartenders and I somehow rolled it into a whole DHV story and included some very subtle kino. The story ended with some good laughs and a "long high five" which brought me to taking her to the dance floor. We started to dance and joined up with some of our friends. She was a horrible dancer (seriously) and not the greatest grinder so I negged her but complimented her on her spirit.

Eventually I isolated her by the emergency exit and went in to kclose. I feel very bad about this but I put my finger on her lips and I apologized telling her I couldn't kiss her as she's the ex of my friend.

Was there any better way to handle this? Our friends said that she was actually impressed that gesture and loyalty to my friend.

Girl #2 (HB8) - A new wingman

After the incident with girl #1 I went back to the bar to grab a drink. Before I can even order a bro of mine (I'll call him Yoplait) grabbed me and said grab your ciggs we gotta go smoke right now. I've never sarged with him before but the message was clear.

We went out and opened to a set of three, all HB 7 or 8. I always carry a pack of B&H gold and matches. It was dumping that night so the matches were failing pretty miserably so I asked the group for a light. They didn't have one so I asked if I can light off the end of hers. Fortunately, Yoplait was able to keep the other two occupied.

I mentioned how we are pretty much kissing with a smirk and got a giggle out of her. I made some small talk and then pulled Yoplait in to tell a story and DHV (we played off each other and built the story up right on the spot). We went back inside and left the three girls with smiles on their faces.

A little later in the night, Yoplait and I go to find out friends on the dance floor and we run into the three girls instead. I grabbed the HB 8 and start dancing and actually move into making out. That's when things went sour fast. Yoplait was turned down by the other two and they went ahead and cock blocked the HB8. There was not much to do in the situation.

I don't blame Yoplait since he definitely has decent game. I definitely would like to sarge with him again and build on the chemistry we had.

Girl #3 (HB10) - I love HBs with red lipstick

Yoplait, Ken (another friend) and I were back at our booth alone enjoying some drinks when our friends (a couple) walk by with an HB10 and an HB5 (I flashed a smile at the HB10).

Ken and I were arguing about if my drink was "gay" (the mix comes out pink and is sweet). I ask the couple if my drink is gay and the girl takes a sip and makes a so-so hand sign. I turned to the HB10 and the HB5 and asked what they thought about my drink.

It was a bit loud and they didn't hear clearly so I thought I'd play the compliance game on them. The HB10 followed along. She leaned in to listen to my question and agreed nearly instantly that my drink was a really good drink. I made sure to kino by touching her shoulder then afterwards I went for a high five and this high five led to her holding my hand for at least 20 seconds. (Awkward for ken and yoplait who were just staring haha)

Next I asked how she knew the birthday girl and she sat down right next to me and told the story. We stay and talk for a while and I decided to try and isolate by asking if she smokes. She "forgot" her cigarettes so I told her I have some. Unfortunately the HB5 tagged along with some other guy.

Since it's raining we ended up in a shop entrance I found and we continue to talk and I use the practically kissing line again. This time the line went from a giggle to a long kiss (in front of her friend). We go back in and grind/make out some more then she goes to get a drink with the HB5r. I went back to Ken and Yoplait at the booth.

A while later she came back to the booth and was very apologetic that she had to leave as the HB5 wanted to leave and was her ride.

She asked me to pass her, her bag and I played a little game with her and eventually passed over the bag. She gave me a kiss on the cheek (it left a red lipstick mark - important for girl #4) and whispered in my ear see you again soon.

A minute later she came back, she forgot her coat. I said something along the lines of "just couldn't wait to see me again eh?" I grabbed her coat and tried to Nclose. She gave me a kiss on the lips and whispered she's sure that she would see me at a party again soon.

Question: Why did she avoid giving me her number?

Girl #4 (HB8) - Hipsters can be fun too

After not Nclosing the HB10 I decided it was time to go have a smoke (2:30AM). I went out and stood at the entry of the bar next door and started talking to some guy (Witty).

This hipster girl HB8 (I'll call her Molly) came out asking if we wanted pizza. I kindly declined and offered to pass her pizza on to another guy. I went and handed the pizza over to some guys and came back to see that witty was talking with her (horrible game).

I offered Molly a cigarette and pulled a fresh one out but she said she didn't want that one. She wanted the one in my mouth. So I light the fresh one off hers and for the third time in the night get a giggle with the practically kissing line. She then noticed the lipstick mark on my cheek and rubbed it off while saying maybe I need one on the other side with a giggle again.

Witty intervenes and I sat there watching him burn. Somehow the topic of me being half Japanese comes up and Molly starts searching through her phone. She has a pair of younger siblings that are half Japanese. Witty continues to intervene so I decided it was time to cock block. I told him I'm going out tomorrow gave him my number to invite him. I proceeded by putting my arm around Molly and walking her to a covered window sill/bench.

We continue to talk and she finally digs up the picture. We exchanged numbers and realized that we live in the same neighborhood and decided to share a cab. It was then 3AM and everything was closing. I suggested we grab a bite but she said she wasnt hungry but we'll get me something to eat.

I took this as a chance to setup an instant date. It was romantic as can be. We were soaked in the rain walking down an empty street talking about how the city is beautiful in hunt for hot dogs! In the end we ended up at a convenience store and I offer to pay for her drink as well.

I hail down a cab and we hop in and continue things are going great, thought during the ride, she suddenly brings up her boyfriend by subtly including it in some of the conversation. In the end we dropped by her place and she paid part of the cab ride and I continued on to my place in the cab alone.

Anyways that was my F1 weekend Friday night! I'll take some time and post about F1 Saturday tomorrow

F1 Weekend - Saturday Night - More Cash than HBs in my hands

The night started at my place where a group of 5 friends and I polished off a 40 (vodka) and then split our ways. One of my best friends and cousin James and I went along with KC (another close female friend) to a house party but soon hopped into a cab to a local club (It's on my list of regular clubs though I would prefer not to name it as I don't need to get the bouncer in trouble).

We arrived at midnight. It was a special event at at the club for F1 and there was a two hour wait. I'm not one to wait in lines so I shook hands with bouncer, my wallet got thinner and we walked straight to the door. The woman asked which guest list we were on. The bouncer yelled over that we were VIPs and to let us in right away. This was golden social proof, the whole line heard and I actually had HBs coming up to me saying they recognized me from outside and asking who I was.

After walking in James and I hit the bar and I pulled out the most odd peacocking item I have ever tried. A straw that doubles as glasses. It's also important to note at this point I don't normally sarge with James, he's a AFC that refuses to take any advice and believes he succeeds when he gets rejected. A good attitude but never closes in anyway and is an embarrassing liability.

Set #1 turning into Girl #1
We walk into the R&B room and James felt like opening to any girls he can. We go in to a 2-set asking for an opinion on the glasses. Both girls and James said they hated them. We split the girls and his girl was giving him IOIs and KINO.

I decided to try and convince my girl that the glasses were awesome. This girl had a big bitch shield, she kept looking over at her friend and James and was not interested in me what so ever. I did my best to occupy her as long as possible so James could try and close. Even that wasn't working so I rudely told her if she wants her friend to have fun unlike her to not bother them.

Frustrated, I turned around and a smiling girl (HB9) is about to walk by and notices the glasses. She complimented my glasses, so I highfived her and twirled her around throwing in a neg about her shoes. I got her to wear the glasses and we danced/grinded for a few minutes and then I saw James finishing up with his girl. I told her that I have to get back to my friends and got a kiss good bye.

Set #2/3/4 - Continued failure

We decided to try the glasses on a few more sets (2-set/4-set/mixed-set) and the glasses were only a hit with the guys at the mixed set so they remained on my neck for the rest of the night.

Girl #2 - Stalker routine? - Recommended to try

I decided to candidly help James out since it was his first time out in a couple months. I walked up to a blonde in a mixed set that looked like they were having a lot of fun and asked her to take our picture. After the picture I introduced James to the girl and went off on my own.

It was time for a smoke and I began to leave the R&B room and noticed the girl was behind me. I saw Cajun pull a similar move but in reverse (he was behind the girl), so I asked the girl if she was stalking me (playfully of course) and she played right along.

Once we hit the open hallway she said it's my turn to stalk her and I asked where we were going. Again, she continued to play along and told I'd have to follow her to find out and we end up outside alone. After we got outside things went pretty stale, the conversation just wasn't rolling and I definitely should have been a bit more on the ball.

I failed but I'm happy I tried a new opener and it turned out to work pretty well.

Girl #3 - beautiful rack and the bottles start rolling

After failing to get anywhere with Girl #2 I pulled out a smoke and walked over to a 3-set to ask for a lighter (As mentioned previously I never carry a lighter, only matches which I forgot that night). They didn't have one but introduced me a pair of gentleman that they said did.

The two men were about 10 years older than I was and somehow we started talking and I ended up with one of them (I'll call him Mario) alone talking for a while. We opened a 2-set, an HB 4 and HB 8 and I took the HB8. She looked like a younger Britney Spears but perhaps a bit hotter and a far better rack.

Anyways, we get in line to go back in and start to build some rapport. After about 10 minutes Mario suggests we talk to the bouncer. He flashes a massive wad of cash and tells the bouncer we'll order 4 magnum bottles of Grey Goose and a table. Yes ... it was a fucking shock.

We stroll in again but this time we have a bouncer escort us and the girls to a table. Within a few minutes half of the club staff (women) show up with the bottles and three of them remained to serve us.

We end up inviting a bunch of people to enjoy drinks at the table pretending to be buds and boosting our social value even higher. We left a dozen or so guys and girls at the table (incl. James) to dance with 2-set we brought along. I played my typical dance floor game by twirling her around negging her dancing skills but something was wrong. She was having fun but somewhat reluctant while Mario's girl was ready to Fclose.

She had a boyfriend ... (it wasn't a shit test). I took her back to the table while Mario was feeding drinks to his HB 4.
A while ago I memorized this commercial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXg6djexZ2M) from Corona about how we only have one shot at life, how we gotta live it etc. I recommend that you memorize this ad (slightly tweak it) and give it a shot. It's worked pretty well in the tw, now three times I used it.

Half way through my speech she began to kiss me and we got to second base.

In the end Mario didn't Fclose as that girl would not have been worth it. We took the two girls to the bathroom and Mario and I decided to ditch them.

Venue Change

We went back to the table for about 10 minutes then I received a call from James. I had totally forgot I was with him. He grabbed a bachelorette party and told us to come outside and go to Rouge (a 21+ club).

We rushed over leaving the table and bottles to the mixed set to meet up with James we were only greeted with disappointment. These girls looked like friggen clowns. I have no idea WTF he was thinking. I punched him then grabbed him and told the ladies to have a good night.

Mario suggested we grab a cab then head up to a very high end lounge (3 vodka crans were 160$ + 40$ tip). He offered to pay booze if we provide the cigs.

2-Set - Cougars can be dangerous

Mario looks very much like Pitbull (he was constantly mistaken as him). When we arrived at the lounge we hit the bar and I noticed a pair of older women (around 40) that were both HB10s.

I head over there and asked if they wanted to meet Pitbull, they didn't buy it. After some playing around they were curious as to what was around my neck. It was the straw glasses.

One of them turned away extremely repulsed and the other one (blonde) loved them. I knew these ladies were experienced and I was in over my head but I decided to try and pursue the blonde as I usually do well with older women.

After some nice conversation and a bit of kino from both sides, her friend began her cockblock offensive. Things turned ugly fast. She began with some anti-English sentiments (she was Quebecois). In Quebec there is some tension between the "Anglophones" (English) and the "Quebecois". I am of Quebecois origins and speak both languages but I think the language war is ridiculous.

She went on and on in French about how Anglophones like me are horrible and I tried to get rid of her by waving James over to get her away from the blonde. It worked for a short time and I took the opportunity to tell the blonde that I had a good time talking with her and got a kiss good bye. I just wanted to eject out of the situation so I didn't go for the number.

I felt pretty bad as I left James with the friend and he was getting destroyed. He's pretty beta but still, I've never seen him tear up before.

Last call

I went around with James for a little while opening to sets until the lounge closed but things were pretty uneventful.

Conclusion
In the end it turned into a very lavish bro's night out. Had some fun with some girls, tried some new things and a blast with Mario and James. My failure rate is the worst since I was an AFC but I go out to have fun first and ladies second so I would consider the night a success.

Sir Winston's Sausage Club

So Friday night rolled around and things were looking up. It was 10PM and I received a booty call.. downside? I couldn't make to to where she wanted to meet up. So I called up my friend Jan and we decided to head out. Jan is a couple years younger and I see her as a bro.

Anyways, we end up on Crescent and find a spot right outside Sir Winston Churchill's (SWC). During the day it's a bar and at night it becomes a "club".

I've never been clubbing before on Crescent as it's a tourist trap but when I walked in I was shocked ... it was a ratio of about 10 men per woman. After realizing how bad the sausage fest was I decided to head out for a smoke. As per usual I didn't bring a lighter and hit up guys throughout the night for lighters.

At one point I met a Moroccan guy. Score, he had a few friends and a table with a bottle (free booze). I used this opportunity to build social proof. I recognized this girl, she's about 6 feet tall, and a model. I made sure to make eye contact and that she saw me having fun with these guys and Jan.

Later in the night Jan and I hit the dance floor, I spotted the model with another tall guy (probably 6ft 4) dancing. His game was so sad to watch (AFC). At one point she walks a few steps away from him and stops dancing. The guy clearly didn't get the message and tried to keep the dance/conversation up and I saw my chance.

I walked over dancing and reached out for the model with a smile and pulled her to the dance floor with a twirl. After a couple songs I asked if she'd like a drink and low and behold the table is empty so we get a chance to be alone.

I started to play some games with her. I bet her if I guess right she has to give me kiss. I started with where she's from, Vancouver, Bingo!, I go on with the fact that she must be a model, again Bingo! I carried on with a few more facts. But how did I know this? I recognized her from POF, I ran into her profile a few months back. We continued to chat and pretty intimate kino; things were looking good.

At around 2:30AM Jan wanted to head home since she wanted to beat the throngs of men. Perfect, she created a time constraint for me. So I apologized, telling the model I had to go meet some friends and Nclosed.

What I learned: Occasionally browsing online dating websites have their benefits and NEVER EVER go clubbing on Crescent again. Worst experience at a club ever.

Question: I somewhat feel bad that I took her away from the AFC as I saw a bit of my old self in the AFC. Even if he was to fail, at least he wouldn't have lost her to some other guy. Did I do anything wrong?
