Poker in Luton

Of all places.  Poker in Las Vegas on the Wednesday, Poker in Luton on the Thursday.  Thats Poker!  The opposition in Luton though is really tough.  That's what people forget, just because Las Vegas has a lot of poker players doesn't mean that they are any good.  Many is the time I've won $5k in Las Vegas and lost it in a local casino in the UK.

One of the things that my team and I always say to our students is that the venue for poker is not completely irrelevant, just largely irrelevant.  The main thing is that you prepare for each session in the same way.  Positive attitude, drink plenty and be rested.  So for tonight I am taking one of my students to play her first session at a casino.  Update tomorrow on how she does, but I have cautioned her to take only £20 and that's her lot for tonight.  It's a mini-tournament, so maybe she will be out quickly but who knows?  She has to start somewhere and as I say with the course that we sell we show you how to make your first £10 playing poker.  

Good luck Karen.  You can do it, and I'll be there to watch.

Best

Lucky cards and major skill.
