i've played in Austria

I'd avoid pokerworld like the plagues its possibly the dodgiest place ever to hold poker (including Salford lol)

the Concorde is a bit fussy regarding who they let play, a member of our group was turned away for having only 250 euros on him. Baden is a lovely place and the trip up there by tram is fantastic, as is all the public transport there (we never had to pay once) The city of Vienna is awesome although pokerworld and the CCC are situated a little out of the centre but theres a cracking enlgish pub lol

Played a festival in Seefeld in 2004. while the festival was OK (Stud PLO and NLHE tournies), the cash games were minimum 30/60 blind Limit Omaha or limit 7CS or PLO with 30/30 blinds. ?bit hard on the bankroll. he rake was horrendous too. Very smoky too.

The Concorde is excellent - if you want to cover expenses sit down in the 3/6 lhe, normally very easy.

thanks for the advice, i don't like the sound that the casino is fussy about who it lets in, i will have to look into this as im only 18.
