It goes without saying that the valets are of course incredible.

Excellent hiring skills.

I'd never played poker anywhere other than Rileys or a pub until my first visit to DTD and although obviously they offered way more than my previous experience I just assumed that that was what you got when you played somewhere where it was 'proper'.
I'd had my first DTD cash before I played in a casino and imagine my surprise when I discovered, in a proper venue, that we had chips made from extremely thin plastic; we were to start late; play with cards that moved in the breeze from the air-con and worst of all, we had to deal for ourselves...

A few years on and a little more experience at other venues has shown me that DTD is, quite simply, head and shoulders above the rest.

If only they'd open up a franchising operation

Doubt it would be the cheapest of franchises to own and operate!

I know, although wouldn't it be amazing if your local cardroom adopted all the DTD practices and policies...

Going to DTD tilts the life out of me, but only because I know that it isn't somewhere feasible for me to visit regularly and I have a 5 hour drive home coming   Angry

Definitely the best card room I've played in, it is that good I didn't even mind when I pulled up and there was an Aston in the disabled spot meaning I had to park around the corner   Wink

Hi All

Thanks for the feedback we really do appreciate it.

Very surreal moment after reading TK's post,

When Rob and I ventured onto the UK poker circuit all those years ago these were the reasons we come up with the crazy plan to conceive DTD.

There just wasn't a half decent cardroom out there catering for the us nowadays cardrooms have certainly stepped up there game, which is great for us as an operator and the players.

It really is strange to sit back now and think of those times and where we are today.


Enjoy

I hope you all enjoy DTD as customers as we enjoy bringing DTD to you

DTD is the reason I moved to Nottingham, thank you to Rob, Nick and the team at DTD for creating the best place to play poker in Europe!

doubt you'll find anyone who will disagree it's one of the most pleasant places to play poker on the planet, every time I step foot in the place I feel extremely welcome.

Yeh I tweeted a months ago that I've played all over europe, vegas, even colombia and never found anywhere even close to DTD.

It's the reason I live in Nottingham and probably the reason I'm still playing poker tbh!

Keep up the good work guys Smiley
