Membership Information:
Equal Chance like many of the clubs listed is a private members club. Membership is free of charge, but you must be recommended and then seconded by current members - The process then takes 48hrs but once you are approved and a full member you can bring up to 4 guests on your card. Any Questions just call the club itself. Food:
I will be honest when I visited to review the venue it was very very late at night and I really wasn't in a mood for food so I can't put my hand on my heart and tell you that it is amazing but I saw a few people eating and chatted with some members and by all accounts the place turns out decent food and exactly what you want when you are playing poker from a ham and cheese sandwich to a burger and fries. Bar:
The bar also like the other members clubs listed has a full range of alcohol and serves well into the night so there is no excuse for a parched throat - I believe they are serving from midnight to 1am. Personal Comments/Advice:
I have played poker at Equal Chance just a few times as it is a bit of a way for me to go being as it is based out in East London and I am an SW boy! But I have to say it was a great club to play at especially as the tournaments are all dealer dealt which I think makes a massive difference to not only the speed and enjoyability of the game but also to the way I play.Although it has a much higher % of regulars than other clubs I go to and that they are all mainly locals it is still a friendly place where you don't feel intimidated when you walk in the door which can happen at a number of other London poker venues.
