Home game
With a few friends of mine at uni. I'm cutting down on the casino poker at the moment - only really playing one tournament a week now. Could play pub poker, but there isn't really anywhere around here with interesting stakes since the new gambling laws came in. Back home I was playing in £20 tournaments with over £100 to the winner - and I had a pretty good win record in them (about £200 in profit last summer, for example). Up here they have the same number of players, but only a £5 entry fee. That means I can play for four hours and if I come third, I still only get something like £20.
