Congratulations Rob and all those involved!
This is great news. Read the article on pokernews and I gotta say I don't think I would have been as kind to the casinos by not offering slot machines etc. at the club when you had the choice. I would have, if only to stick the knife into the greedy b*******. Very classy. Your obviously a better man than me.
Already planning my trip down sometime near Christmas.
All the best for the club.

Yes - 49.5%
No - 50.5%
Could be worse.

It was far worse when I viewed it.
I appreciate your comments MPOWER, and understand what you are saying.
I was pleased though to see the journalist who reported yesterday's successful conclusion sounded like, although he has to be unbiased, he was actually just as appalled at the casinos objections as we were.

People are worried about "problem gambling" in Nottingham with the recent opening of Stanleys and LCI making 4 casinos in Nottingham, I was asked this on 3 radio shows today, its hard to explain that Poker is different to traditional casino games, so I understand why there will be some negativity to the opening of another "gaming" venue in Nottingham.
