Long time no go kaki jio for company so made a trip up to chillax and look see, booked day ferry reach counter bo lang one no Q at all we the only ones, after collect boarding pass thru immigration at waiting area can see why, less than 50 pax waiting ferry.
Reached big ship go counter check in for balcony cabin was surprised given one free balcony cabin voucher for weekday valid 2 weeks, no exchange for the fake rebate decide to play only cash chip.
This time was assigned the prefect cabin, why cos everything works! Aircon, toilet flush all work got hot water in bath area also no more brown tap water. Good.
Proceed to resturant for makan the same cai png , noodles and pastries taste wise now better than previous trip, also ala carte now is 24hrs so order a sandwich with fries 5 bucks plus a can coke 3 bucks.
Casino area outside now during day got 2 table Baccarat with only 20 bucks min can squeeze card shiok, as already aware of the pirate casino situation this time very careful only play super small bets for fun but as usual still very hard to win, up down up down mostly down more, while walking around saw few medium leg punters bet 1k to few k per hand wonder why they playing there such bets should go play at regulated casinos with free perks.
Since got free cabin vouher had intially plan to extend one more night stay but due to lack of crowd now the whole cruise is like a freeze box super cold cannot tahan so faster book next day early ferry back, going back ferry also not much pax whole ferry quite empty many seats vacant can lie flat shiok.
Overall, can sense after the initial return hype now is really lacking in punters worse if compared to pre covid always packed, probably due to the high ferry cabin costs and the pirate casino situation with many punters suffer huge losses until scared, ask my friend also say not going again any time soon as the costs is even higher than the casino day levy 150 no point stick with mbs rws regular there.
This time still same loss trip which is unusual for me to lose consecutively, heng is as already aware of the pirate casino situation only play super small fun bets so only donate couple hundred bucks as entertainment fee, since this ship back till now yet to win a single cent there ... LOL
