Pick up with your openers and a day game video

Hey guys!

Firstly thanks for the response on my last blog post where you all challenge me with openers. I will be going out in field sometime this week, please keep adding openers I am interested to hear what you can challenge me with. Be sure to look out for it.

Now, my blog post today has a video again for you guys to enjoy, as I feel anyone can write posts and they are immensely useful, but sometimes it is nice to see it in action.

I had a 1on1 client last week and he told me that one of the major factors in booking me was the filmed day game approach. He really enjoyed it and said that he wanted to be taught by someone who he has seen do this stuff, and then he asked me a question – Was this your first approach of the day? And I think it is important everyone knows that it is impossible to get 100% close rate on approaches for reasons outside of your control eg. Woman is getting married tomorrow, she just got divorced, she just had an abortion, etc. The approach you guys saw was my third approach of the day. In my second approach I got a number but my camera man missed part of the opener as I jumped in really quick as I liked the look of the girl, but I didn’t think missing part of the opener was good enough to show you guys. And my first approach, the women didn’t speak English and it was tough and I could have ran non-verbally game and got a close but again not good enough to show to you guys as I wanted to demonstrate to you Gambler’s day game blueprint.

Well I just thought you guys may find it interesting to see more approaches and learn what you can from these. Comments welcome - Enjoy guys.

Stay kool and keep gaming.

Your Friendly, Neighbourhood PUA Dharam ;-)

  1. great job! that first pick-up was a little awkward but you hit a homerun in the one after that! i look forward to seeing more


  2. Cheers for posting. I stumbled upon this site which documents the progress of a few Canadian lads as they say from “zero to hero”…

  4. This is a great example of day game Dharam. It’s all about being comfortable and low energy. Day game is one of the easiest things to pull off, it’s just a matter of putting yourself out there and taking the risk.

    No indirect routines are really necessary because there is a slimmer chance of a woman being approached during the day. And let me add this.

    You are going to be most likely to find the woman of your dreams walking down the street or in a bookstore or grocery store than a bar or nightclub. JMO

    Good job, Dharam. Keep it up, bud!


  5. I think watching the frst approach should be essential viewing for PUAs. Whats great is that Dharam just keeps going, there are so many points in that interaction where I would have just said ‘You know what, dont worry’ and walked off. But Dharam really goes for it, pushes through what seems to be a near impossible set considering the circumstances. And it wasn’t that he was rejected, the girls seemed to like him but they were confused by the situation.

    This demonstrates a valuable lesson in pushing further than your comfort zone in approaches, and Dharam’s approach is impressive and worth watching just to see how he doesn’t get fazed.


  6. Hi Guys,

    Glad to see you still commenting on my posts.

    MIKE: The second PU was indeed a home run, something important to note is her body language, look at the way she is swaying towards me as she talks, she aint going no where and enjoys my conversation.
    CRAIG: No worries, helping you guys is my passion.
    INFINITY: I agree, its easy to be forgotten as the ‘guy she made out with at that night club one night’ its not so easy to forget that guy she bumped in to and had a fun conversation all random like in the street.
    RICHARD: Glad you like the first approach, what you are talking about, maybe without realising am not sure, but its that the girls like my energy. They’re confused a little due to there lack of English, but the energy I give it is a great one and they sense it so they stick around a little longer. Never eject, until you literally have no other option, and that is not when she says ‘I have a bf’ as she could have hot female friends, so get the all important ‘f-close’ (Friend-close that is) ;-)

    Loving the blog comments guys, keep it up.

    Stay kool and keep gaming.

  7. great work dharam. its good to see that u put on a video where u didnt get the close. knowing that the top guys fall short at times makes the rest of us more willing to go out and do it.


  8. I’m studying kino recently and noticed the kino you used in the middle of your second approach. I think she shyed back just a little bit when you tried to hold her with both hands, so might have been a little bit too much? I mean, she took it the right way at the end (after all, you number closed) and it was a great idea on your part, but maybe a single-handed kino approach would have been better to make her more comfortable? Using both hands might get her into this “no way out” feeling. What do you guys think? I wonder when a two-handed approach is working perfectly.

    I’m just starting to get into kino tactics, as for a long time I thought that intentional kino is never gonna work out right for me, but you guys’ videos make me more confident that kino is key to a really good game.
