A few questions to those in the know and the locals please


Is the draw itself at 3pm or does the first flight start at 3pm? If it's the latter i need to be there for 2.30ish

Is the Village hotel (where I'm staying) walking distance from the casino, or a drive/taxi?

If I'm playing second flight I want to go off and do something rather than leaking away on the tables...where do I head to wile away a few hours?

Village Hotel a short ride from casino. Wouldn't recommend walking.. Very busy roads!

yeah, the last time we played your first five hands were 85 off, A10 suited, 23 off, 55, and AA. you played all five. I cracked your Aces with Queens. This was the only hand you showed

You wore a black jumper with yellow trim and black jeans. Your left shoe lace was untied. You went into the cash and won £125 over 3 hours and 47 minutes, after table charges.

Looking forward to sharing a table with you at the weekend!!

Sorry cant help you with start times but im sure Dani V will respond to it shortly.

Like Red simon said, roads a bit busy to walk, but there is plenty of parking available. only 2 min journy from Village by car.

Next door to casino is a 12 screen Cinema or The town of Walsall is 10 mins away, with a pool and snooker hall there.

Good luck on the day

The Village Hotel is a short walk to the casino if you fancy walking on the M6, i would recomend a taxi BUT before getting into a taxi check the price it should be £5, or £6 after midnight, there is no meters in the cabs so they charge what they want my local metered taxi would never be more than £3 for the journey i guess thats the problem with unmetered cars.

if you ask at reception to order you a cab and get a price you should be alright
