INTRO
Not sure if there are many “Chicagoland” data sheets out there so here's one. This may be more helpful to older players that HAVE/HAD TO move to the suburbs or end up here for work. Chicago is included here but I’m covering mostly the surrounding suburbs, a lot of which I have frequented in the last few months since I have wanted to hit my game hard. Suburbs are not so bad for a player if that’s his only option.
It’s no secret that Chicago yields younger hotter women by a significant margin and hence is much more effective for gaming. The fact that the city is also only about an hour away from most suburbs provides various options to game. My options are limited so I work with what I have.
Few points to remember: This is local. It doesn’t include too many work events even though I have been gaming moderately there. I feel that doesn’t belong here since gaming opportunities are significantly reduced. The suburbs I noted are roughly about an hour drive from Chicago. If the location below doesn't say Chicago, it's about an hour away and it's in the Suburbs.
Also, I live in the suburbs. I have a family. Consequently, my logistics suck. But, of course, I don’t care and still go out to game when I can. Progress is just slower.
LOCATION ANALYSIS
Westwood Tavern (Schaumburg) – This is close to work. I was meeting up another forum member, Terrible Username (TU) there. This was my first “go out and game” experience after discovering RVF. Also the first time meeting a forum member. Parking was horrible. This is a more upscale sports bar that appears to be frequented by older business men and women. There are some younger local girls but they are not there to get lit and fucked up; probably meeting friends for dinner at best. I got there first and talked to a 5 and a 6 at the front waiting area. Opened them. It was the 6’s birthday. They had their plans and were not feeling me. TU got there; we grabbed a drink. We went upstairs and realized there was a nice lounge there with TVs playing games and big leather recliner 2 set chairs. Great place to bring a girl for drinks. Much quieter than the bar and can get her real comfortable in those chairs. I opened a girl running towards me since TU dared me. I did but she put up the bitch shield and gave me a cold shoulder answer to my opener of “which team are you rooting for in the game.” Then I opened a two set sitting on those recliners. They sat there because some guys graciously offered their seat to them. They had to be just about 18. They were watching the basketball game so I opened with “how do you play this game.” It didn’t go great as they were waiting for a table. TU tried to wing me as well but couldn't save it. Takeaway is that this is a cool spot if you're "in town" but don't bother if you're in the mood for gaming young girls.
Loyola University area (Chicago) – Met up with some forum members there for a Chicago meetup at “Bar 63.” This is where I met Snowplow, Terrible Username (TU), pr2004cn (PR) and Vinman. Snowplow had me ask the bartender the location of the “nearest pet store” to confirm I wasn’t the IRT.![[Image: smile.gif]](https://rooshvforum.network/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Of course college putang is here aplenty but we just hung out, shared forum stories and flirted with a few girls. It was at this time I realized PR was an Asian approach machine. This guy seriously approaches like a maniac. If you’re out there man, you should post more. TU, you need to stop lurking too and post. I’m still waiting for my rep point. Main takeaway here is that there are lots of college girls, especially on Thursdays I hear.
Art Institute (Chicago) – Me, TU and PR went to an “After Dark” event there. There are many such events at this place. Check their website and just go. Lots of decent talent although it was not the 18 – 24 talent, but more like 25 – 35. We got in line and PR immediately chatted up (he doesn’t wait) some Mexican chicas there (older in their 30s, 6 – 6.5). I joined in for the chat. Tickets should have been purchased online and there were only a few left at the door. Based on my place in line, I was definitely not getting one. TU came to the rescue as he was in front and got me one. Game on. It was just an open mingling area which was great for approaching.
We chatted to lots of girls, mostly two sets. I opened a few younger girls as they were eating. Negged them a bit but PR made the point that I was negging too much and was doing it when they were eating finger foods. Point taken. Interaction didn’t go anywhere. Both of the RVF guys were opening some more girls and I decided to do the same. Opened another two set of a 7 and a 6. I paid attention to the 7 and made fun of their orange drinks. We were vibing and having fun. So I went for the number from the 7, which she was about to give me. However, the 6 cockblocks and says she’s engaged. Of course that sends the hamster spinning and results in no number.
Approached another 7 in the drink line with green eyes (looked about 27ish). Told her I liked her eyes. She talked to me for a bit and I had pulled her away from her friends as the interaction was going well. I wasn’t giving out my name or real information for certain reasons (some of you know). However, this was literally my first night out approaching. So I fucked up and told her my name was actually “Cobra.” It sounded weird and I tried to make it work but it didn’t. Oh well. I still laugh at this approach.
I approached another Romanian girl with short hair (6.5 because of short hair). Obviously mid-30s. It couldn’t have placed her as Romanian because it went completely against what I have read about them on the forum (feminine, long hair etc.). I don’t know why but every Eastern European girl I have met has that “what do you want” attitude. I don’t know; for some reason, I wasn’t intimidated too much by it. It’s possibly because, they have a different conversation rhythm and I know better. I didn’t ask for the number though so that was stupid. TU got her friend’s number which was good.
Main takeaway from this is to go on a website, any website to check local events. PR is good about that shit and drops some good shit to me and TU which we try to take advantage of. This was just one of those events. There will be more in the summer, of course.
Wicker Park (Chicago) : This is a very decent spot in Chicago (Division and Clark). Lots of talent on a good night (Friday or Saturday). Me and TU were there on Saturday I think. There are many bars that are more or less similar. One stands out. It’s called Fatpour Tapworks. It’s got a nice vibe and has an upstairs and downstairs. Doesn’t look like a hole in the wall bar like the others lean more towards. TU was approaching left and right but I just wasn’t feeling it. We then bounced to another spot very close by but can’t remember its name. The other bars are fairly basic and there’s not much special yet that I have been able to extract from being there once or twice. As I get there more, I’ll drop some more knowledge.
I froze at this other spot. I just wasn’t feeling it. TU approached a cute blonde that he was able to actually leave with. I stood there and some girls eventually gave me the cheesy smile (implying that I need to smile). I talked to some Indian girl but got cockblocked by a bystanding Indian guy that knew her (surprise). I saw some smoking girls, well, smoking outside. However, didn’t approach. We called it a night soon afterwards.
Takeaway from this was that this is a great spot to meet girls inside and outside (e.g. smoking). Borrowing a cigarette is game 101 I guess.
Woodfield Mall (Schaumburg) – This was day game so bump up the difficulty a few notches. I forgot my laptop at home and told my boss I would work from home. Obviously that wasn’t happening as I found myself here. This was my first day game experience, first solo as well as far as gaming. This mall has LOTS of talent that’s younger (18 – 24). Keep in mind that this talent may be otherwise harder to access during nightgame in the suburbs. I went to a phone shell booth and opened a redheaded 7.5 with “I’m not just stopping here because you’re cute; I do need my phone fixed.” And, I did need it fixed. I asked her about her day. She said she got her car towed. This was a great Segway for me to amplify and I didn’t. Pussied out.
Went to a GAP store and there was a 8.5 likely not older than 18 in there asking me if I needed something. I froze and asked about jeans. She led me to some other dude. Not great from here on as the dude decided to give me a verbal course on denim. However, this was an example of a young girl that was hot and could have been open to some good game had I used it.
There were many other girls that were walking around but my approach anxiety got the best of me. Main takeaway is that this mall is great for some daygame against young hot ass that is usually bored with the shit they’re doing.
Saddle Up (Aurora): Met up TU for some country night shit there. It seriously was country night as there was some square dancing happening as I walked in. That means there was a huge dance floor. So you dance game players, take note. Maybe I need to learn it; haven’t seen too many Indian guys that can square dance. Lots of cuties but a bit above their prime (25 – 40ish). I opened a few girls. They were in a Bachelor party. Another was there for a birthday set. Not great for gaming. One girl I winged for a dude that came with TU. She was decent but wasn’t feeling me and wasn’t that interesting.
Takeaway here was that I may need to watch how I dress when it comes to how others dress in the venue. My philosophy is to dress the way I want but there may be some truth to wearing flannel in these places as it’s mostly a 25 – 40 white crowd. My bright shirt maybe stood out too much.
Wicker Park (Round two): Me and TU met up at InnJoy (small bar and restaurant) and had a meal. Think beer and nuts (well, wings too). Nice waitress that gave us a shot on the house because we were messing around with her and vibing. I really like doing this as I really get in the mood. Then we hit up Fatpour again on a Friday night. Decent but not great. Not too much talent. I tried to open a girl at the bar. She didn’t respond to my hi and turned her head. Maybe she didn’t hear me. Oh well. Then I opened a two set because a blonde was cute. She was probably a 7. Her friend, definitely a feminazi that was a 5 at best. TU winged me with the feminazi. I’ve honestly not heard that many f words in a long time from a girl’s mouth in the span of 5 minutes. I’ll cap cuss words from ugly girls at this point for my lifetime if I can. TU wasn’t happy at all. I got the blonde’s number. I at least redeemed myself a bit for last time’s freezup at Wicker Park. I texted her a few days later, no response. Called her a week after that and she picked up. She said she will get back to me with her “schedule” since she works a lot. Could be legit. We’ll see.
Downtown Naperville: Just this week, I met up with another forum member, MY DETROIT PLAYAS (MDP). We met at a very basic bar called Lantern. This was a Wednesday night. I chatted up the bartenders and asked if it was a slow night. They said yes, things don’t pick up until Friday out there. Otherwise it’s a hit or miss on the other days. I took it with a grain of salt. Not sure what it is but I really feel the vibe of this place. More relaxed than Chicago and the talent doesn’t take a huge dive it seems.
Met up with MDP and we walked out. It was still light out at about 7 PM CST. There was a white girl jogging. She had caught the red light with us at the crossing. I opened with some shit like “good day to jog eh.” She was open to talk but after a few sentences, jogged away. This was atleast a good vibe initiator. We then hit up “Bar Louie” across the street. This is a decent spot. One bartender was easily a 8. She looked about 24 but said she was 30. Smiley and doe eyed. Good for her. MDP gamed her well and went beyond indirect and into sexual. While not completely direct, if we hit this spot, there could be more prospects once we build a rep. There was another older bartender who I noticed has a serious look which I called out. She didn’t seem to get it. She’s a bartender; she must not want tips. MDP opened a white girl across from us. TU met us there later too.
We all saw a few black girls, latina and Asian girl. It was a set of 5 girls. MDP was feeling the Asian girl. I opened them all at their table and MDP came over to wing. I got a number from a black girl (maybe 5 – 6 wtf was I doing). It was actually fake. I think the Black girl was feeling MDP instead and maybe the Asian girl, me. The logistics of that table they sat at, was horrible. It was against the wall. So no walk around space to game, much less wing. The spacing was quite awkward.
Other thing is that there is a college campus around there. Me, MDP and TU are mid 30s dudes. Brown, White and Black. We could use some of Gio’s tips and game on campus. That’s on the radar. I said MDP could teach African Studies, me, Math and TU can be liberal arts. Lol. Me and MDP are going back there and it seems like a underrated spot. Like he said, at least we got a lay of the land.
Main takeaway for me here was that I really feel the vibe of this place. I see myself gaming here for years to come. I just need a good story of how I'm not from "around there." Suggestions welcome.
Rookies (Hoffman Estates): This place is a work hangout. It’s in a strip mall and nothing but a decent sports bar. There is literally no reason you should end up here unless you work around there and/or absolutely need to. That being said, the waitresses are cuuute. I flirted with them and upon leaving asked for a blonde 8.5’s number. She was being really doe eyed and smiley but said she had a boyfriend. Hey, I tried.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Out of all the suburban spots so far I have hit in Chicagoland, downtown Naperville appears to be the most happening. There is seriously some good talent there. It’s close to home but not so close that I get too anxious (which is the case with gaming at the local dunkin donuts for example). BUT, if you have options, hit up Chicago and look for events.
The summer is going to bring such awesome daygaming opportunities in Chicago as "Taste of Chicago" and the "Air Show." I'm not listing all of them but you can find them here:
http://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/dep...ates.html.
I'm sure you'll see me at some of these events easy.
My game has come a long way since my first posts BUT needs to improve by a long shot in order to bring you guys good data. I realized that I have been too indirect. One of Travesty444’s posts resonated with me because I read it after my Downtown Naperville night out. He said I need to be more of a Shark in blood. It’s true. There is also the issue of being “too close to home” which can put a buffer on good game. I need to break past that. Another thing I need to get over is gaming white girls. I easily opened that set of ethnic girls and can and will do it again for sure. However, with white girls, I have a bit more anxiety. Whatever the reason is, I need to get over it. In order to do so, I will be gaming a variety of girls. I’ll be focusing my gaming outside of Chicagoland by travelling but more to come. This thread will be updated with my escapades in Chicagoland.
The best thing about this new journey in gaming is this: I like hanging out with other players that think the same way as I do. Much props for TU’s 3-2-1 countdowns that have kicked me into more of an approaching habit. I could also learn from PR due to his maniacal approaching abilities. MDP is a smooth cat that isn’t afraid to keep the interaction going. The Chicago meetup was also great and while I didn’t get enough time with Vinman and Snowplow, these were obviously cool guys with their own brand of game that I could learn a lot from. These guys are all helping me become better and my game would be less without them. Really do want to thank them from the bottom of my heart.

It's a real neat atmosphere.
