Hello,
It's called the Broadway and it's just off 5 ways island, exit between tesco and what was the Swallow hotel and there's a slip on the left into the underground carpark.
I spoke to someone who played there last night (and saw some piccys he took) VERY nice!!
He said they're gonna do 3 comps per week to start with NO BUYIN FEE and NO SESSIONS on cash games to start!!!
He thinks Sat, Sun and Monday but can't confirm this.
Apparently a strict dress code is in force so beware.

Well if anyone has full details - proper address, telephone number etc - we will put it in our Cardroom Directory, & publish their schedule.

Nice to hear of dress code being tightened up - I think this is well overdue.

I quite agree with you Tikay.

Cardiff Grosvenor has a dress code, but everytime i've been there, i see people in jeans and t-shirts, or football tops.
If you are going to have a dress code, then enforce it. 
Sod's law is the one time you dont quite match the code, then you're the one that gets stopped on the door.

Call me a little old fashioned , but Im all in favour of a dress code. The first Casino I went to was Bournemouth and I dressed smart casual (open necked shirt and trousers , not jeans) as directed in the membership pack ...getting inside most were dressed as if they had just come from the beach...The staff shrugged and said "It's a holiday resort what can you do" After saying that the card players were enthusiastic and very friendly

I feel when i go to a casino that it is a special night out and try to dress accordingly and make an effort , those that know me know i always dress as a sack of turds when i can at home. i suppose if you spend a lot of time then you can become blase... But doesn't Marcel Luske always look smart ... perhaps a Poll of some decription on tightening of standards of dress ..
