The River Card Club
The River Card Club in Stanmore, Middx, represents North London, in card room establishments. Not far from Stanmore tube station and on a busy main road this small venue will suit players that are either beginners or intermediate players as the tournaments there reflect that in their pricing structure.
Most nights of the week they run a £10 No Limit (Rebuy) event. Obviously this game is prevalent in the minds of the young and it’s this audience the club is aimed at.
Membership is compulsory but a quick show of some picture ID gets you in and enrolled with the minimum of fuss.
The club itself is a single floor comprising of approx a dozen card tables, a small café area where free soft drinks, tea and coffee can be found along with the usual sandwiches & snacks (chargeable) and the usual bank of Internet terminals for those that can’t wait to play or just want to catch up on the latest news.
£2 an hour will see you all right although there are only about 6 terminals, which means that, on a busy night, you’ll have to be quick to nab a seat at one.
Tournaments are self-dealt, apart from the final table, so there’s plenty of practice to be had at shuffling, dealing, button passing etc. No harm in that!
The club itself is smoke free which means there’s usually a queue to get onto the balcony as the club is situated above the offices of a well known building society which no doubt means that the summer months must be nice there.
The busiest night there is claimed to be Monday when over 60 bodies play there. Expect a prize pool of around £2500 for this particular evening.
There’s good access to parking in the evening although beware of clampers and traffic wardens in the period 8am thru 6.30pm especially on a Saturday.

Plus points: Spacious, Clean, Nice people
Minus points: Needs a few more bodies throwing its way

Swimming With The Devil Fish

Filed under Local Poker News
We all know of Yorkshire’s most famous poker player who is in fact the UK’s most celebrated and profitable tournament winner, but have you read the book by Des Wilson entitled “swimming with the devil fish?”
It’s a book that uncovers the life of a UK poker player and shows an amazing side to some of the countries best known players. It all kicks of with the background of our very own Dave “The Devil Fish” Ulliot who was a petty criminal ans safe cracker in the early years serving time in prison and shall we say on the wrong side of the law from time to time.
It’s a truly compelling read and a book which i feel should be read by every aspiring UK player to let you see what you could be letting yourself in for
The book covers the story of many professionals including devil fish, the hendon mob, John Gale, Willie Tann, Andy Black, Steve Vlader, Xuyen Pham, Gentleman Liam Flood, Donnacha O’Dea, Jeff Duvall, Carlo Citrone, Roy Brindley, Simon “Aces” Trumper, Dave Colclough and many more.
Cash games and tournaments are featured from around the World, Paris, Barcelona and the World series in Las Vegas plus give history of the old time spielers in the Uk such as the infamous Barry’s in the Midlands.
It really is a great read and i personally found it very difficult to out down, i actually read it this year in Cornwall when we took the kids on a 3 week camping trip, the weather was dismal and on one of the many trips to the nearest wh smiths for more pens and paper to keep them entertained i found the book. I read it in 2 days and stayed awake until 5am reading by torch light on day 2. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, even if they don’t play poker!
