Correct. Compo nearly got turned away last week, he showed up - showed me up actually - by arriving in Trainers. It's a no-no.

*sigh* Anywhere else in Nottingham that offers cash games @ 2-5 and up? Coming over from Ireland and not bringing a bag so carrying an pair of shoes is a non option. Shame as I was just reading this thread and would of liked to see this place.

don't wear trainers?

surely you could wear another pair of shoes rather than miss out?

You can't go to Nottingham and NOT play poker at DTD!!!

The previous comments have lead up to something that's been on my mind for a while now - the DTD dress code...

The website states no t-shirts and no sports trainers, but as a regular to DTD, I notice this seems to be rapidly becoming more and more relaxed...  I hope the stated standards are kept to as it does make the place look nicer!

That isn't me saying that I think you should chance it mind!

Yeah but as I said I'll be walking around Manchester for at least 4 hours and I ain't wrecking my poor feet! I'll just play somewhere else or is this the only "poker" place in Nottingham? I've no interest in casino games. First time I've witnessed a no runners option though, strange one.

Are you new to casino's?

Nope played in every-one in Dublin as well as the fancy ones abroad in Vegas, Sydney and New Zealand(Auckland&Queenstown) and there was never a dress-code. Nightclubs=yes casinos=no, unless it's Monte Carlo... Oh well I get the point

[Bongo]

My trainers have been fine both times I have visited

hantori, its a simple answer for u in my book mate, l too am from Ireland and it is difficult for me to wear shoes anywhere as my feet just dont agree with them. But the sacrifice is worth it to visit dtd. If you play poker and are coming to Notts and DON'T play in dtd because u can't be bothered to bring a little rucksack with shoes or buy a £3 pair from TESCO, then u are a poker freak and would be better playing in an internet cafe.

No disrespect meant!

buy a £3 pair from TESCO,

this is the solution..tesco or ASDA will sell you a shitty pair of shoes for a 5'er

many casino's have a no sportswear ruling

DTD are strict on this ruling

Haha none taken dude, congrats on your result btw. But my predicament is a 8am flight to EMA, bus to Nottingham and train to Manchester with the return leg getting me in at 12am that night and I hate having a bag at a football match so there is 0 chance of me bringing one let alone for this journey.

[Slick Kid]

ok, mate ffs your like a travelling tramp .

Give me a size and l will have a pair in reception for u.
