hi Ed see you tonight

get youself and your friends down to gala this afternoon to play in the 30 pounds freeze out registration closes at 2:45

sunday afternoon competition is a 30 pounds freeze out with registration closing at 2:45pm comp starting at 3pm. They will be a 20 min clock expected time of finish is  8:30pm in time for the 100 pound comp .They should be a cash game available too.So come on down and have some fun

just to let you know 1/2 the seats have already been taken through pre-reg or super-sat,  so get there early to avoid dissappointment.

If you go Nottm Gala they have different pay-out structures depending on comp, The 10 pound re-buy game has first prize of 30% where other comps are 40%, nightfly has done a study into this and discovered that although 40% is advetised for winner they only takes home (or drop in casino) about 30% because of deals or chip counts.This suggests a flatter structure is required for all comps

hi all, i manage a small cardroom in Nottingham with average 90 players per comp ranging from 10 pounds up to 300 pounds depending on night  and week, i have visited Gala Birmingham several times to work and find their cardroom small but cosy (5 tables at the moment but growing to 6 soon) i believe there is a place in the market place for 5 and 10 pound nights weather it be for beginners or novices,so get down and support the poker boom in all cardrooms and you will all end up with what you want,better players, bigger prize pools and entertaining nights out with mates. Any comments please reply tnx

Tuesdays night competition at Gala Notts was a great success with 98 runners, who generated a prize pool of $2800 with a maximum re-buy of 3, the winner walked off with $840 and the runner up was $560 the full final line up and prizes will follow shortly. If you are planning to come next week i suggest you come early.

last weeks prize pool was 13,750 pounds,tonights maximum players will be 88, so get there early to avoid dissappointment

due to a last minute change by GM the first $10 comp is tonight any questions contact rob at the casino start time approx 8pm

thank you redsimon for your comments, a buffet is something we will look into next time.

You posed 4 questions, here are your answers, firstly management did not know about your nottm team playing blackpool and who gets to play in the team anyway or is it just open to your friends. Secondly the recruitment of gaming staff is not easy but every effort is being made.Thirdly start times are being looked into as it has a an impact on other departments within the casino structure and finally as for 425 covering the final, Tikay has been spoken to about the situation. So i hope this answers your questions. I await your reply on here or in person.

the gaming board will no longer be running the casino's it will be in the hands of the gaming commission,which hopefully are a group of people how have a modern day version of the gaming industry

AC milan lost because they were celebrating victory at half-time and lost focus,well done liverpool but the best time did not win.

to all those who are slagging off Gala Nottm cardroom please come down and speak to the management in person and they will put you right on a few issues.on another point a CASINO is like any other business in respect it is there to make a profit,from what i can gather from these pages is, that the people complaining are the ones who go in, .play and then leave because the casinos are not LiNING thier pockets.please reply
