A Winter Walkabout
Logie66:
After finally discovering which hotels in Brisbane and Adelaide that I"ll be staying in I decided to investigate the evening entertainment options, in particular Casinos. One from a point of view of actually playing a game of poker on my travels and secondly to find something to keep me occupied and out of trouble in the evenings, casinos and out of trouble don"t really go I know :)
Found an option in Brisbane for a casino, although it doesn"t seem to specialise in any poker games or tournaments, just the standard casino table games, hey ho Blackjack for the win I guess in Brisbane.
Doing a similar search for a location in Adelaide comes up trumps ! It seems Texas Hold Em is fairly popular in Adelaide, and I find the Adelaide Casino, similar looking website to the G Casinos in the UK and it has a poker section. Daily tournaments running, a freezeout on a Wednesday and Friday evening. If I"m lucky and get organised in Adelaide and the Casino isn"t a big trip from the hotel I will hopefully get a couple of games of poker in.
Do a quick look up of my hotel in Brisbane, discover that the Casino is adjacent, hmmm, might actually keep me in trouble whilst I"m in Brisbane !!! At least I won"t have far to stagger home at the end of each day ;D

Yes, you are correct Phil, the first two references will be documented for Brisbane and Adelaide, with perhaps the bonus of Hong Kong airport if I can locate one.
This could be an epic publication ;D

A good effort Phil, I can see it going global :)

Well, the trip is finally upon me, one more day to go, a few hours at work in the morning and then the final packing of the suitcase before heading off to Heathrow Terminal 3 for my 22:05 flight to Hong Kong, connecting flight to Brisbane the next night, the one bit of the trip I"m not looking forward to is the length of journey.
The England team have found some form in the warm up games, a much more professional approach than the the last Ashes tour. This time the Aussies seem to be in a bit of disarray and hopefully we will be able to take advantage of this if we hit the ground running. As per the last series in England, a lot of the results may be determined by the toss and the decision taken by the Captains.
Here"s to hoping for some good calls and decisions by Captain Strauss !
