I live in MK, frequently down in London playing though.

The International is my favourite place to play, much more fun and friendly compared to the Vic.

Super soft games ,2-3 MTTs a day and cash games,with a £300+ main event at the end of each month.

I play there and the Vic once a week ,just to stop my brain frying online.

Nice one mate, cheers. I'll check it out

We should have a live 9-10 man SNG at http://www.foxpokerclub.com/ for all the 2+2 Londoners.

You can hire the tables there ,I think you get food drink and a dealer ,not sure on the price ,but between 10 people it can't be that much.

(we can have an award for the biggest looking 2+2 nerd that turns up)

The Vic is slightly better than The Fox for sure,not much ,but better.

The Fox is still kinda new really ,it's smaller, less tables etc ,but for what it's got ,it's not bad at all.

the fox is the worst place I had played in the UK. paying them rake to play a sit and go (playing a sng in general) is just a complete waste of time

im not a huge fan of the vic, but the vic>>>>>>the fox

The vic is probably the best cardroom in london imo. The empire casino is a joke, Ive never been to the fox but i havent heard good things about it, I'll visit soon tho.

All the above comes with decent dealers,not sure where else in London you can play a rake free MTT SNG,the Vic not so long ago used to be self deal don't forget, for all the low buy in MTT SNG.

Virgin Media ,it comes with my phone and cable t.v.I get 50MB ,which is pretty wow here in London.

Alot of my friends use Sky and B.T and seem to have loads of problems,in 3 years my net has gone down twice and both times it was no more than a few hours.

Ah back up, I use a T-mobile dongle stick,cost £5ish a month ,really weak though ,I guess if your net went down, it would be enough to get your tables up and then you could wind down.
