Texas Hold Em poker tournament played out in a central Madrid bar
Enjoy a 3 hour private poker tournament run for you by Freedom in a central Madrid bar. For poker 1st timers as well more experienced players, this is a great value way of firing up the competitive spirit in the stag group with the ultimate strategy game of them all.
To start with, your guide will meet you at your central accommodation and take you to a central bar where you will have a private area roped off for you. Included is a welcome drink on the house, but we recommend keeping the mind sharp and the drinks non-alcoholic (ish!) if you're to stand a chance of winning the poker tournament.
Your poker croupier will spend the first half an hour going through the basics of how to play Texas Hold 'Em poker, along with how the tournament will work. Experienced players should help the poker 1st timers to understand how to play as well at this stage.
The tournament will then start with everyone receiving a pile of chips to play with. The tournament will last 3 hours, with extra chip buy-in allowed in the first hour, and the ante (min bet) going up every 20 minutes to increase the pressure and squeeze out those conservative players! During the tournament, a table service will be available so that drinks can be ordered, and smoking can be enjoyed whilst playing as well. At the end of the tournament, a 2 person show down will ultimately result in a winner who will receive a prize along with the smug smile on their face for the rest of the evening. For legal reasons, we can not allow any money to be played for. However, this doesn't stop you as a group of friends running your own "poker pot" on the side.
This has gone down really well with previous groups, and it's surprising how often the poker rookie wins in the end - beginners' luck or a quick learner?!
 | What's included : Guide, private reserved area in central bar, 1st welcome drink, poker table, chips and cards, 30 minute poker lesson, organised 3 hour poker tournament, prize for man left standing with all the chips ! |
 | Notes: If you are not staying centrally, your guide will meet you at a convenient central location or at the bar itself. |
 | Location Info: You will picked up from your central accommodation and taken to a central Madrid bar where the poker tournament will be held |
 | Timings: A good time to run the poker tournament is from 17.00-21.00, filling that twlight gap before restaurants open in Spain where many a stag/hen group has come unhinged by drinking too soon before the nightlife begins. However, timings can be changed to suit your group. |
