How do you maintain conversation with a pair of women at a bar when solo? I'm pretty good about opening conversations and can usually get 2 3 minutes of dialogue with two people before one of the women subverts the conversation.

I will try to listen to the conversation to to continue engaging but I'm fairly tall and women don't really speak very loudly and bars usually so after a while the conversation just fades out.

Sometimes it will be very obvious that one of the girls is interested in that makes it easier to pursue.

I'm a regular at the bar so I tend to avoid persisting with people that don't seem interested, but it's difficult to find the balance.

How do you guys do it?
