London
Not everybody associates London with gambling, but there is much more to offer than historic buildings. It is a world city bustling with excitement and opportunity. Get the most of it by visiting one of the many adrenaline pumping casinos that call London home. However, rules and regulations do not make gambling in London the simplest of tasks. UK gaming laws have made casino membership a necessity. Thankfully, a few casinos have found loopholes to accommodate visitors.
The Casino at the Empire is the largest casino in London. Located in what was originally a Victorian music hall, there are four bars, two restaurants, and 30 gaming tables in addition to the slot machines. Everything is coated in the glitz and glam most would expect from a casino: mirrors, crystals, and showgirls. While they welcome the experienced gambler, they also accommodate those new to the scene. Every evening, classes are offered for free lessons in poker and other popular games. Simply make arrangements ahead to reserve a temporary membership.
For casual, low-key gambling, the Sportsman is ideal. All that is necessary is a valid form of ID; membership can be obtained at the door. The Sportsman has the traditional slot machines, poker, blackjack, and roulette, but they also offers something most casinos do not. The sports lounge downstairs contains state of the art technology including television screens to view major sporting events to bet on or simply enjoy with a cold drink.
