Much thanks. Any ideas on anywhere that posts all the local tourneys?

Nah theres no one place I'm afraid.

Here's the fb page https://www.facebook.com/GalaCasinoMerchantCity

4th in champs chair for £310, was chip leader with the 4 left but lost 2 flips then J7 < QJ bvb when I shoved for 6 bigs. Good run for Try2Win_ for 6th (I think?) who I ended up knocking out bvb with a std jam and call for about 7 bigs with A4 and QTs, flop AA4

Think I was the most hated man in the room when I refused a saver with 11 left on the bubble

So I see Genting on Sauchiehall street have started a poker schedule: http://www.gentingcasinos.co.uk/casi...glasgow/poker/ - no sign of cash games yet though. Anybody played?

Hi,
I'm currently in Glasgow and looking to play a live tournament.

Here is today's offer from ALEA GLASGOW

Tuesday – Free Entry + £2 Registration – 2,000 Chips
2 x £10 Re-buys – 3,000 Chips
£10 Add on – 5,000 Chips
20 Min Clock
£1,000 Guarantee: Minimum 35 Players
Registration opens at 7pm, Game Starts at 8pm, Re-registration available until 9pm

Is it worth going? Are there any other tourneys on Tuesday night?
thank you

Gala Merchant City on Tuesday is far, far better than Alea IMO

Any live tournaments in Glasgow tonight? I know the Alea advertises one every night but last time I went there were only cash games..

£25 + £10 addon game at MC tonight @ 8.

I'm from out of town.. Where is "MC"?

Ah, Merchant City.. Thanks.

Hello everybody! I could not find a place to post such thread so I decided to post it overhere coz i am still newbie. This year I came to UK to study and i heard that casinos are form age 18. SO its good for me. For today I play NL25 cash games. But in the future i would like to try a live cash game in a casino as well. Is overhere any local residents of Glasgow , who can give me an advice which casino to choose? WHat are the minimum buy-ins overthere and is there anything specific I need to know about poker in a casino?

P.S I am living in the city centre near buchanon galleries. Are there any casinos in the city centre?

Your help is much apprecated people. Thank You.

I don't play in Glasgow very much at all as I tend to play in Edinburgh now but from my experience it's only £1/£2 that seems to run.

If you're looking to play a live cash game in a casino and not risk too much (definately a good idea if it's your first time playing live properly) then this casino offers 25p/50p tables. I have no idea how often this runs though:

The Alea is pretty good for cash and tournaments with cash games running most nights. I haven't played in the Gala Merchant City much either though I played one tournament there and it has been renovated and doesn't look a complete dump anymore!

If you're able to travel I really do recommend the Genting Club Fountainpark in Edinburgh - it has 50/50p cash games running every night and is probably the best run cardroom in Scotland.

So does any casino in Glasgow still run 0.5/1 at all?

Princes Street Gala does

https://www.facebook.com/groups/GetituptheGPU/?fref=ts is probably the best place to get updates regarding whats going on in glasgow

I have never known any casino in Glasgow to run 100nl.

Came to bump this thead, need some more glasweigans up in heeere

Going to be in both glasgow and edinburgh for a couple of days..

If I wanted to play cash, preferably with a dealer, where would the most likely spot in each city be ?

Also looking for the info in the liverpool/manchester area if you have any suggestions!


thanks!

Genting Fountainpark in Edinburgh is the best spot for cash games with 50p/50p and £1/£2 running pretty much daily. £2/£5 runs a lot as well sometimes even £5/£10.

I don't really know about Glasgow tbh - probably the Alea but I don't really play cash often enough in Glasgow to give any tips about it.

The Alea is ok, the best dealers imo are at the Riverboat (Gala) casino. The merchant city also a Gala is not bad too. There is a place on Bridge Street called The Cincinatti club, there is alottt of money in there games and alot of big gamblers, you'll see some footballers in there quite regularly blowing thousands.

What stakes are regualry spread@ the 3 ? Off hand.

All the casinos play 200nl, no max buy in, £100 min buy in.

The Genting sometimes runs 25p/50p games if u wanna just play some micros

Any up to date info on any of these games?

Especially the cash games - really fancy playing some old degens with 800bbs

Bump.

I live just outside Glasgow. What Casino in Glasgow is the best for £200nl? In terms of how often they run and game quality as well?


Also, just out of interest, are there any casinos that are running bigger games? like 2knl or even 500nl?
