Strange that even though there were more girls out on the weekend, it was far easier to get laid on the weekdays.
On the weekend the girls were in larger groups and with guys they knew. It had more of an insider feel. Less pairs of girls. On Thursday night I pulled even though the bar was dead. Last night it was packed but I only got love from fatties.
it's HS graduation weekend in Finland. Might explain why everyone was out with their friends. Everyone today is spending time with the family and friends who graduated. Curious to see how next weekend turns out for you.
Hey all
I'm on my first solo europe trip, and stumbled upon this forum, been a very useful resource for me. I was in Helsinki over the last few days (will post up about Krakow and Copenhagen as well when I get a chance), and have made a few observations.
1) Agreed that milli is a great venue for bar game as the music isn't deafening - was there at some point on most nights. Also, you need to start gaming early as I noticed once the guys get more drunk and more aggressive/physical, the bitch shield comes up markedly.
2) Went to Onnela club, huge venue. There's a rnb floor as well as an electro floor (but seems like the electro floor only opens on weekends). Unless you want to do dancefloor game, your best bet is either by the bar or at the seating sofas beside the dancefloor. I got my only flag in Helsinki opening a group of two girls bumping and grinding each other at the sofa area by themselves next to rnb floor. It was a swedish flag though, not a finnish one - but I'm definitely not complaining, as the girl was hot enough to be well entrenched in my top 15 alltime bangs list
3) Went to Vatican club, which actually was pretty good too, there are 4 rooms. The first room coming from entrance is brightly lit with a big bar, saw groups of girls dancing there. Second room is the rnb room with a pole in middle, bar on the side. There's like a small seating room next to this, but its groups of guys and girls so looked pretty cliquey. The last room in the back might actually be best place to pick up as it was the least packed, with a bar as well. I opened a cute finnish girl at the bar here and got pretty warm reception. However, she wasn't drinking at all and she was with a guy and a girlfriend, so I number closed and moved on as I was looking for SNL
4) Overall, I found eye contact before approaching quite a good gauge on how warm the target is, smile would be a bonus. I would even cheers them with my glass from a distance and if they look away on purpose, I wouldn't even bother approaching. Saved me alot of time and effort to focus on ones with IOIs
5) Clubs usually start shutting down at 330am, and people start lining up to pick up their coats from the cloakroom. This is usually the best time to run cold approaches or try and close the girls you spoke to earlier, as the girls are bit tipsy. Almost everyone goes to McDonalds, or goes to the taxi line - both with very long queues. So best way to get target back to your place is to say you have room service/decent food (as opposed to fast food crap) at your place, and/or to hang out at your place and chill to some music and have a few more drinks rather than waiting in the taxi queue for an hour. Make sure your pad is around the Kamppi area so its an easy walk
6) Didn't do too much day game as I'm usually asleep from being up until 4-5am. However, from what I can see , girls are really shy during the day so you need to be extremely indirect. However, I think if girls are interested, they would look and smile at you. I had a few of these, but the girls weren't really my type.
Hope some of these insights help, and again, awesome forum.
cheers
