I live and London would like some help with casino recommendations as I've only played in home games + at the empire. Now the issue I have with the empire is that the service is so fucking terrible (waited 40 minutes for a fucking soda like srsly wtf), the dealers r beyond horrible, and the tournaments r self dealt and slow as snails (like 7 hands per hour slow) that it just feels like a chore to play there. The only reason I kept going to the empire is because my bankroll wasn't big enough to play at other casinos, and because we r all broke uni students my friends kept dragging me into it since they have this really cheap and shitty tournament every day or w/e, and since I'm retarded and don't know anything about any other casinos in london I just kept going along with them.

Anyways the point is I feel as if I've built a sizable enough roll to start playing in decent casinos, and because of that I really don't want to experience playing at a casino like Empire ever again, because even though there is definitely a boatload of free money, I would rather play in a room where I don't have to worry about the dealer awarding the wrong player a pot, and not having to wait almost an hour for a fucking beverage.

Any advice on where to go would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! ^-^

I live in central london, i've actually never been to the empire because of the bad stories like yours. I always play at fox or at the vic and can't really complain. Dealers are fox are friendly but unfortunately do make mistakes. At victoria it's a little better imo but it's 90% cashgames, the tournaments have shit structure and the fields are too small there.
