blonde poker forum

I have just been offered (and taken) two tickets to the rugby at Murrayfield this weekend (Scotland V South Africa Sunday) and im going to make a bit of a weekend of it with my dad but need some advice as i have never been to Edinburgh before. My dad went to university in Edinburgh but a lot has changed i would guess since the stone age so I need to do some updating for him.

Firstly we need a good hotel, preferably city center any recommendations?
Secondly good food, we are big Indian fans but will eat anything and as long as it is good the budget is pretty flexible happy to spend £20 or £100 as long as it is bluddy good!
Thirdly but most importantly POKER! Where is best to play in Edinburgh on a Saturday night would be looking for cash or comps? not really bothered just want to play!

Also we were half looking for a wierd and wonderful place to watch the England game in on Saturday we are travelling from North West England so going up the M6 and will either plan to get to Edinburgh and watch the game there or if there is a little gem of a pub or something on route stop off and have lunch and watch the game there.

Common Blonde Do your worst!

Also an option is a hotel out of town with a golf course for a game Sunday morning! Really like to cram the activities in and just found the Dalmahoy Marriot. Seems reasonable at £40/25 a round of golf and £120 for the room not sure if they would do a deal on both

seems to be about 6 miles away from murrayfield. Is there anywhere to park near murrayfield?

At Genting club, fountain park there will be 3-5 cash games first starts around 8-9ish the rest 11ish they'll run all night. Tourney is 30 freeze out, 60+ runners usually.

seems ideal cheers

Who you supporting?  ;whistle;

poker in scotland this weekend will be focused in aberdeen for the 25/25 so alot of poker players will be making the trip up north

Hotel budget Calum? Fountain park genting for poker maybury don't do Saturday tournaments! Gutted I am away Saturday or I woulda donated to tournie prize pool!  Tuk tuk is near casino, like Indian tapas, very good and different, not far from murrayfield

Whatever i have a bet on!!! its possible i will be supporting "Over 22.5 points" or FTS etc :D


hopefully that will leave me all the fish!


Thanks for the resturrant recommend shame your not around looks like its genting for the poker  happy i got one thing sorted!

Hotel budget is probably up to £150 i think

Forgot to reply to the hotel bit, sorry! Assume you are sorted, cant really go wrong in central Edinburgh for one night! If you make it to Edinburgh for the England game, and need local protection in a pub in town, shout me as I live ridic central and I could pop down before I am confiscated for the evening!  I can buy you a pint in exchange for knocking in your hard earned $$$$
