Virgin Poker Festival
Nottingham is the latest spot for the Virgin Poker Festival, following the success of other Virgin Poker Festivals in Newcastle and Birmingham. The event will play at the end of this month in the Dusk Till Dawn Poker Room in Nottingham. The largest poker room in Europe seems like the appropriate place to hold a poker event sponsored by Virgin, and the main event will have £5,000 added to the prize pool…
