poker cardsLondon is the home to many things – the world of online gaming, the Queen (when she can be arsed), a big clock, maybe a transvestite show or ten, cockneys, jellied eels, and for the next month or so it’s home to the London Poker Festival.

It kicked off yesterday with the very first World Poker Tour London from the Palm Beach Casino in Mayfair. Such poker dignitaries as Phil Ivey and Huck Seed attending day 1a, with day 1b taking place today, and the final day on Saturday. Now who said there’s never anything fun to do in London?
