Casinos in town

[esplanade]

Specifically, the Bank Casino on Father Matthew Street. Is it a nice, trendy place to have some fun or a seedy dive?

There's also that one where the Vic used to be (or nearby it) - what's that like?

Its alright. Not near enough players for tournaments though.

And then there was the infamous night when halfway through a tournament, they finally noticed they were using a deck with two jacks of clubs in it. there was murder.

Ha! Good stuff.

What's the atmosphere though? Are we talking Casino Royale or more like poker night with the lads?

Is that the same place that was a dive of a pool hall in the early 80s or just a similar name??

Bank is more urbane, cosy...well run tournaments etc.
Macau, lets call a spade a spade, has more scumbag clientele, but also has a better variety of games and bigger poker tournaments....
Where's this Tudor place? The one on Winthrop street is that it?
