    Hi Able,

    Yes, you can.

    Most Casinos will require you to be a Member (which is free), so you'd need to take ID with you. This does not apply to Casinos in the ownership of LCI, who do not require you to become a Member.

    Attire should be smart casual. Some Casinos are fussy about that - Luton G will not permit anyone in wearing trainers, & The Vic are strict about collared shirts & "reasonsable" shoes.

    You sare free to Rail Tourneys & Cash Games, but do not stand too close, right on players shoulders so to speak, & NEVER discuss hands whilst they are "in progress".

    Some Casinos are strict about drunken-ness, too (thank God), especially DTD.

    Tell me where you live, &/or what casino you plan to visit, & I may be able to help further.

    Enjoy!

    Hey Micky,

    If you fancy making a day of it, you could always head down to London to see some of the best in the world go at it during the WSOPE and EPT London. The first is at the Empire on Leicester Square, while the EPT is being held at the Hilton Metropole over the road from the Grosvenor Victoria Casino on Edgware Road. While it's the first time the EPT has been held there, I am sure they will be accomodating enough to outside spectators - at least I would hope so!

    Well worth the trip, in my opinion. If you want any more info give me a shout or read Tikay's rather fine blog on this very site...

    Cheers,
    Dave
