I was surprised on my trip up to Newcastle that on the way back to my hotel, that the taxi driver stated that none of the casinos in Newcastke are actually making any money. However, I have no further information to verify whether that is true or not.

Personally, I don't mind paying a registration fee, as long as it's a reasonable amount, in proportion with the tournament buy-in. The casinos host tournaments to earn money, either directly, or indirectly through house games, food, drink, etc. If they don't make a profit, they go bust, which reduces the number of venues I can play at.

Agreed, it's that simple. We want & need the Casinos to want & need US, & they'll only do that if they earn an acceptable return on poker. If the Casinos get out of line, they know the poker punters will naff off & play online instead. The perfect "push-pull" balance.

Well yes, it's good, VERY good, but to say it's "the best" is subjective.

Stunningly good, though.

Poker players get very disgruntled very quickly. I wouldn't be surprised if Walsall lose a few players to the Broadway.

Broadway only started charging reg fee since Oct 2006
Its 10% on all comps to a maximum of £25
We don't have customer dealt games and never will, Broadway is here to provide a service and thats what we do best
.

Alongside the best dealers , we also have the hardest working and prettiest waitresses.
