yeah will do mate i have been playing at virgin for years but never knew of this forum but will be sticking round now i have found it.

is there any live torneys round are neck of the woods as i did inquire about lppl but there was nothing in this area at time?

certainly up for the old beers lol

[SteveO]

No there's nothing mate I've tried my hardest to get games going. There was apoker club in Merthyr but it never took off.

They've started a game on a Monday in the Connie in Tredegar every couple of weeks has averaged about 12 so far.

theres a place by ystrad mynach a pub that had a big banner outside advertising poker nights, dont know if that kicked off at all but i will investigate to see.

shame really think its more to do with player numbers than anything be good to get something local thats worth the hassle and the recesion does no favours for the pub industry.

Unyet there's no shortage of people playing 3 card brag mate. Pop in th Cambrian on a weekend and see the amounts exchanging hands. Regular 4 figure sums being done.

never been into 3 card brag but worth learning i think.

will find a spot to practice and thats well worth considering especially if it draws in the crowd.

3 card is a crooked game mate and it's al lluck anyway but very easy to cheat at.

[evilfook]

god cheating luck lol, i can just well imagine bluffers game i take it then???

certainly gonna take time out to learn the game.

Not so much bluffing but when there's a few players involved cheating is easy. You can't call a player who hasn't opened up his cards so if you have 2 mates involved and the one who has looked at his has good cards it's going to get very costly.

That probably sounds like gobbledygook to you but you'll understand once you start playing.

i am just scanning over a wiki on 3 card brag i can see what you mean as if i am right does the showdown only involve 2 players at the end and one with best hand wins and if its a draw the player seeing loses.
gonna def get to know this game

like any game once you get the ropes practice n time makes perfect until a donk comes along a ruins your day

Guys, we were at Aspers in Swansea this weekend and it looks like they've got some decent games on there, if that's not too far away for you. Plus they're doing cheap food at the moment - 99p a meal (that's my kind of place )

that sounds good but i am too far away from swansea that would be well worth looking into having a weekend away.
what are the buy ins like??
thats it time to get the aa route finder up

thanks avongirl well worth looking into for near furure

Never been to Aspers Avon. I used to go to Swansea regularly as a youngster clubbing. The only other club near us is The Grosvenor in Cardiff and that's a waste of time.
