Walsall Tournaments on Friday?
« on: January 15, 2009, 23:47:11 PM »
Was just wondering if anybody knew what tournaments or cash games were on offer at the casino on the night before the UK Championship? We"re going to be travelling down on Fri so looking for a game on Friday night at the same casino or any casino close by...

I hear Dusk Till Dawn is close too, does anybody know how far exactly?

Think might travel through to DTD by the looks of things all local casinos I can find have rebuys on a Fri night, except the £15 Turbo (Bingo) tourney in Walsall...

DTD is less than an hours drive away.

There usual Friday night game is a £75 + £10 Freezeout.

The Isle is a gorgeous casino, with a plush cardroom.  I went when it first opened, but it was all self-deal - so not my cup of tea.  I believe they have dealers now, and that the cash games are juicy.  But with DTD a similar distance from my house I haven"t been back to find out.




Dealers for cash games = yes.

Dealers for tournaments = no.

Think we might hit DTD, I"ll be saving some pennies in the £20+3 Student tournament though as it looks like it"s got the same structre as the £75+10 tourney plus will leave me with some money to play on cash games after I get knocked out, lol, anybody know if they run £0.50/£1 PLO Cash Games @ DTD? Only thing I can see on the website is the mention of a £2/£2 PLO game...

never seen a 50p/£1 plo but am sure they will set it up if you ask (probs be 1/1)

U can sit down at a 1/2 table with 50 quid. Stacks usually vary depending on players

Would probably just sit at a 0.50/1 NLHE table if there was no 0.50/1 or 1/1 PLO tables - don"t think i"d fancy playing PLO with 25 BBs in a 1/2 game. Will probably only be buying in twice at £50 a shot...
