Best place is to play at meets. It's what I do and whilst I don't know all the rules and best plays, I still have a bit of fun

I have some decent cards kicking around from where I used to do magic tricks. They have taken a good buffeting and are still alive so card wise I think we're fine

last time I played at a meet I was robbed But yeah it's a reet laugh and the only way I play poker. Once every couple of months 4 of us get together and play for a pot of like £20 and it is great. I don't trust myself to play online

of course, a decent table top will set you back £50-60 , one like the one in my garage is a serious bit of kit and will cost £700+

You're not the only one I think I know a fair bit about poker but Rotty could definitely teach me a few things

aggressive player raises from early position, I re raise, he calls

flop 6 8 T

he checks, I bet 2k , he calls

turn 9 , he goes all in

I think it's Christmas and call

he turns AJ
