Dusk Till Dawn Card Room

The Dusk Till Dawn Card Club is in Nottingham, England. The recently opened card club has been put in the spot light as "the best card club in Europe". Such a glamorous title for a poker club on the outskirts of Nottingham had to be examined.

The first thing you see when getting to the club is the big Dusk Till Dawn sign and pillars outside the main entrance which conveniently draw your eyes away from the giant, grey warehouse which you are about to enter.

Once you enter it is a completely different story.

The club is essentially one giant, tiered room with tables staggering up to the highest level at the back. A final table sits at the bottom on the ground level and then rows upon rows of top quality poker tables can be seen behind. Top quality is something that definitely sums up the aesthetics and furnishings of this club and it doesn't just stop at the custom table designs. The chairs, the chips and the dealers are all excellent. Even the toilets fit in with the luxury of the club. There is a bar in the corner of the club where it sells food and drink for relatively cheap prices. A good, comfortable sitting area surrounds the bar with magazines to pass the time while you wait for your seat to open or the tournament to start. The card room also offers its own online poker room, appropriately named "DTD Poker" which can be found at any one of the computers situated around the perimeters.

Unlike a lot of card clubs and casinos, some poker games will be self dealt. DTD ensures that if ever there is a table open, there will be a dealer. The dealers are well trained, friendly and keep the games flowing at a good pace. Directors are also on standby if there ever needs to be an official ruling.The club itself is managed by poker player and poker commentator Simon Trumper, who is often seen on Late Night Poker, a TV show broadcasted in the UK. He does a great job at organising and announcing upcoming events inside and outside the card room; events that range from £25+5 all the way up to £300 tournaments. The card club also has a number of cash tables and sit and goes running at any one time from small stakes of £0.50/£1.00 to £2/£4 and sometimes higher.

It's not uncommon to see a celebrity poker player sitting down at one of the tables and this helps to attract the flurry of players that turn up each night. You can even go on a training course at the "Poker Academy" with Paul 'actionjack' Jackson who has been referred to as "one of the most successful online tournament players in the world".

In conclusion, the Dusk Till Dawn card club is worthy of the title as "the best card club in Europe". The one downfall of the club is the location. Although next to a main road, it is out of the way of the city and isn't somewhere you could walk to after a night out or for a casual game. If you're driving from London or even further afield, don't be put off by the distance, Nottingham is a great city with plenty of things to do. Drive up for the weekend and enjoy the poker, the nightlife and the beautiful city.

And don't worry; there will always be players to play with and dealers to deal.
