Latest Casino News 29 Mar , 2019 0

One of the oldest casino games being played today is Poker and the many different types of poker that are currently being played. Whether online or offline, it is still one of the most popular casino games out there. It is so popular now that literally hundreds of poker rooms exist online and have become very prolific in the online gaming industry. However, if it is a real poker game that you want to physically sit in on, then depending on where you are located in the UK, you can usually find numerous live venues doing a simple search on the internet.

One of the more well-known casinos for a Poker Tournament venue is Spielers Casino located in Western Esplanade, Westcliff, Southend. It is located near the mouth of the Thames Estuary and is also referred to as the Westcliff Spielers Casino, as well as being one of the largest casinos in the UK, and features 7 poker tournaments. The main poker game that is played here is Three-Card Poker.

The Mint Casino Southend (formerly Spielers Casino and Waterfront Casino Club) is another establishment that features a Poker Tournament Essex venue. Three-card poker which is a reliably new twist on the game itself can be played here, in addition to Stud Poker and other versions. The casino is located in the Western Esplanade, Westcliff, Southend area.

The Mint Casino Southend was formerly Spielers Casino and Waterfront Casino Club and was refurbished in 2007. It reopened in October, 2007 under the new name and features the River Card Room (lower level) with its 140-seat capacity. The most common games of Poker played here are Casino Stud Poker, Progressive Stud Poker, and Three-Card Poker. Private card rooms are available.

Another one of the well-known Poker Tournament Essex venues is the Rendezvous Casino at the Kursaal located in the Eastern Esplanade, Southend on Sea, Essex. This casino opened in April of 2001 and has one of the more spacious gaming floors that you will find anywhere in the UK. Casino Stud Poker, Texas Hold'em, and Three-Card Poker are the main poker games played here. On a rather interesting side note, the Fahrenheit bar, located within the casino was the first bar anywhere in the UK to keep beer chilled using the Glycol system.

In addition to the standard casinos listed above, there are also numerous "fun casinos" which would also enable you to set up a Poker Tournament Essex venue. These types of casinos are based on a mobile or traveling format wherein a casino set-up is brought to your venue. No actually money is gambled though, hence the classification as a "fun casino." These do have their niche, however, and are an ideal entertainment venue, especially where charity or fund-raising events are concerned.

Cash is used up front to purchase poker chips and at the end of the evening, when everyone would normally cash in their remaining chips, the money is simply kept the group or organization sponsoring the event and then deposited so a check can be written to the charitable organization as a donation. The concept is extremely popular in the UK and several companies are listed online for hire. Some of the more well-known ones are Against All Odds, Funtime Fun Casinos, and High Class Fun Casino. So if you are not into gambling away your hard-earned cash, yet have a charitable heart, then this would be a Poker Tournament Essex future to investigate.
