Several people have posted in the past that they play here regularly.

As it's possible to get a Ryanair flight to Prestwick from Stansted for around twelve quid return, I'm considering visiting the land of the haggis for a weekend with Mrs N.

Can anyone advise on what's on offer at this place. Number of BJ tables, table mins etc etc.

Cheers.

riverboat - 1 bj table most of the time - used to go there

go to merchant city myself - much nicer and busier - 2 tables at least - sometimes more.

table mins -5 and max 100 - sometimes open up 25 min table if requested

One table? Plenty of chance of playing some BJ on a Saturday night then?

Anything else, apart from the BJ, that makes it worth the trip? I'd have to drive around an hour and a half to get to Stansted, two days parking there, then there's the 40 min train ride from Prestwick to Glasgow Central, then best part of a hundred quid for a room somewhere respectable for the night. So there's got to be something worth going for, otherwise Mrs N and I might as well nip down to the Smoke and stay with friends.

The only time I've visited Glasgow was way back in '89 when I was quite impressed with the improvements to the city centre. But now?

Nope on a saturday, it will usually gets busy enough for them to open 3 tables.

Not sure what their max is but they usually open two min £2 tables and 1 min
£5 tables.

Normally there will be space in the £5 table and just get Mrs N to wong the £2 table :)

Is this the casino near George V bridge?

Played there a couple of weeks ago. Rulesets are pretty nice, DOA, DAS, resplit aces (i think), 6 decks, no surrender. Did pretty good and walked out up 100 quid for one night of work (at the 2 pound min table)

On a side note, if you plan on going to Edinburgh, stay away from playing there, all CSMs and I went to three casinos.

also all UK bj game have the same rules only differences is that it could be 6 or 4 decks (found in london)
