A LITTLE ABOUT THE LOOSE CANNON CLUB
What sort of cash games will you be spreading, and will they be dealer dealt?
A lot of city employees are asking about limit hold’em, we’ll be spreading that along with no limit, pot limit, dealers choice, hi/lo, Omaha... Let me tell you a long time ago I had a beginners’ night Friday night, and I started pushing a 2/4 Limit Game, got it going. Much to my amazement I used to get 3 tables on a Friday night, 2/4, then it suddenly leapt up to 3/6. Now I had that game, even the day we closed, Christmas 2002, when they closed that game was still going, every Friday night. Sometimes other nights, I think I used to have a £10 tournament on a Tuesday night, I’d have a couple of games on a Tuesday night, 3/6. When I first opened the card room at Russell Square, the guy that was the manager, Paul Blunt had had a very active card room in Nottingham so he was really pro-poker. I said I’m going to try a beginners’ night. He said “no, it’ll never work” but I said I’m going try it. For the first two or three weeks it was a disaster there was hardly anybody there, because you know, we’d just opened, we didn’t have one poker player as a member. I was gradually building it up. This would be… 1997.
People will still have to be members to come down here though; they still have the 48-hour waiting period?
That’s the curious thing about it, in the club constitution, which is all quite legal, we are allowed to take guests. For one night only, but if you wanted to join, you’d come down, fill out an application form and you can play that night funnily enough, as a guest. Only that one night, and it’s totally within the law. You can’t come in the following night, then the night after that, provided you come in the same time you came in the first night you’re now a member, so it’s only one night you miss actually

The City Bar
The City Bar boasts a relaxed atmosphere accentuated by the exposed brick arches and wrought iron work. This is complimented with modern décor consisting of dining areas, modern sofas and large armchairs.
Open weekdays from 1100 until 2300, the City Bar serves many corporate clients from the surrounding business district for lunch, or simply as a great place to unwind for a drink after a long day.
On weekends this versatile space can be transformed into a lively function area for corporate or private parties. Combined with the upstairs Gallery, this fantastic arch can cater for up to 120 guests without feeling crowded, or noisy
Ok, important question now, what does the beer cost?
It’s a standard price. I mean I know that we’ve had it on the websites it’s going to be £5 a bottle. “Tom – how much does a bottle of Budweiser cost here? “£3, but the prices aren’t really fixed yet.” Our aim is to provide value, no prices are fixed yet but I guarantee there will be no complaints on that one. _________________ "The motto of chivalry is also the motto of wisdom; to serve all, but love only one.
