Rob,
On point 5 Surely 75% of people cannot be wrong.? does it make business sense to only cater for 25%
I admire the way you have gone about this what you are planning is "your" poker utopia....
And yes less sometimes does mean more....
Retaining 5% of customers and keeping them coming back shows an 85% proft so catering for the 25% regulars who want a real poker club will in the long run keeping customers returning. I cant wait cant get a decent game of poker in manchester

If you are a newie to poker or have only played online , i would think having the choice of first playing live in a dedicated poker club rather than a casino would be far more attractive and less intimidating.
Part of my role as host and live poker director will be to welcome all players regardless off ability and help them with any queries they have . Most players have seen me on television and hopefully this will make me more approachable to them.
As Rob has said we want to create an environment for all poker players not just the " names " and " stars " that will attend our festivals . I will be accessible to all and look forward to meeting everyone that comes to Dusk Till Dawn .
It is our goal that Dusk Till Dawn will be the premier venue in Europe and will make players feel proud to be members of a club that will certainly have the "wow" factor that has been missing outside of the USA.
This is without a doubt the most exciting project i have ever been involved with and i cant wait for Dust Till Dawn to open next year.
All the best

Gradually working my way through this thread and it is mesmerising stuff.
I wish Rob all the very best with this amazing venture.
Is it too late to move the whole thing a bit closer to Cornwall?

Hi there,
Newish to Blonde, howdy guys.
To save me from searching through the entire thread, what is the estimated date of opening for DTD next year? I think it will be the best thing to happen for European poker, maybe ever.

Welcometo blonde mate, from the reports from Rob, expect the club to be open early 2007.

Hi there,
I have JUST read through the entire thread...and now I'm shattered. However one thing stands out for me..
And that is, not only your amazing dedication and commitment to the club, but also to poker in the UK.
I only have limited experience playing live ( 5 times locally), but I know for that extra special occasion, and to make a great night, I would travel further to fully enjoy the time I have!
I hope I speak for many here who can't wait for it to open, and who knows its going to be THE place to play poker in the UK, if not in Europe.
Here's wishing you all the best for everything that comes your way

with ryanair starting flights in march 3 times a week from inverness to east midlands from only £33 return i will be down for quite a few weekends
all i need to do now is find out which is the best priced hotels with wheelchair access to the club then i can start to plan my poker schedule
one point though rob i would prefer a club which apealed to the masses as aswell as the poker players then maybe i could start winning

Now you winning Iron is asking too much, stick to AK and maybe you will win a 50/50 one day
