Title: Poker in the NE Post by: bobAlike on July 11, 2013, 12:51:02 PM I'm going to be spending sometime in Sunderland over the next couple of months, where's the best places for a live poker fix for both cash and tourneys?
TIA Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: rfgqqabc on July 11, 2013, 01:19:22 PM Last I heard Sunderland Gala had the most obscene rake structure ever, so much so that there players travelled to Teesside to play. I think it was 5% capped at £25!
Gala Teesside has a decent £100/150 every 8 weeks, as do G Tesside, I'd go to Gala for cash but the games in a state of flux atm and games struggling a bit in the area. Newcastle tends to be poor but they do have some decent tournies on at the Genting, like a decent monthly £60. Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: AdamM on July 11, 2013, 01:22:49 PM Hetton Poker Club might be worth a look.
I'm hosting an added value $75+$5 tournament (online buy in, hence the $) this weekend. Sounds like a fun poker club and they host regular tourneys and cash games that might be an alternative to the casinos Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: kinboshi on July 11, 2013, 01:28:46 PM Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: bobAlike on July 11, 2013, 01:29:37 PM Cheers. I should also add I'll only be there Mon/Thurs.

FYP Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: david3103 on July 11, 2013, 06:31:19 PM Grosvenor in Teesside has a decent £30 + £30 on Tuesday night with unconditional £2000 gtd. Overlays most weeks lately due to it being up against the more established Gala Teesside £30 game which has a conditional guarantee of the same I believe.
Thursday's £10rb at Grosvenor is gtd at £1000 and has also had overlays lately. Haven't played cash at Gala for a year or so but the .25/.50 game at G can be fun. For more on G try looking at their fb page 'Poker at G Casino Stockton' Title: Re: Poker in the NE Post by: celtic on July 11, 2013, 11:38:03 PM Just ring them and let them know you're coming, they will start a game.
