    Golden Nugget - gets very crowded by crazy gamblers from Chinatown. 6D only, usually good pen (up to 85%). The only casino in the UK that has H17.
    Min ?5 up to ?25, max up to ?1k, I think. No dress code, friendly people. If you cash out over ?1k, they ask for your name which can be a little disconcerting. Heads up possible at times on the higher limit table. Wonging also possible, they have about six tables. Lots of riders and players, easy to blend into the chaos.

    Cromwell Mint - A more classy environment, smart casual dress code. 6D downstairs with about 3/4 tables. One table of 4D upstairs after 9pm. Pen was pretty good last time I went. ?5 min, over ?1k max. Free food most of the time.

    They were never my favourite casinos, but not bad to kick off with. You can always join the others when you arrive, then play in these two while waiting for the 24 hours to elapse.

    I hope this kind of talk does not compromise your identity, what with casino spies and all........ but I guess it won't matter too much if you are in and out like fiddlers elbow.

    I don't really play in this counry anymore, got burned to often.

    Hope this helps, and GOOD LUCK.

    If you are going to play heads up in Cromwell Mint, you will have to play two boxes. A very poor rule indeed, if you ask me................

    Kick ass bud.

    If you wanna meet up for a bevvy give us a shout.

    Once banned in Belgium, you re be registrated by many casinos in Europe. It happened to me. One casino in Belgium was my favorite, but unfortunately they have sent all casinos in Belgium, Germany, Holland, Chech Rep., France Austria and maybe more the information being a counter. Now its hard for me to play in these countries. (you need passport to come in, and immediately they take anti counter actions like 50% pentr.)

    Austria, Holland??No problem, only CSMs
    Germany? no problem, bad conditions, a lot of CSMs. France? No problems. 1 Million ploppies, 1 counter. Chech Rep.? Very often 50% pen

    They don`t take immediately anti counter actions, or do you play 1000-2000 Euros??

    Are you implying that Holland has nothing but CSMs?
    When was the last time you checked?
    I'm going there in a couple of weeks, and intensely hope you are mistaken.
    Please tell me what you know.

    Checked it several weeks ago. But that doesn`t matter. "Holland Casino"(owned by queen Beatrix) has the CSMs about for 6 years or longer.
