You are accordingly invited to a soiree of glitz, glamour and gambling. This will be LB’s first charity poker night! The night will be themed in a James Bond Casino Royale stylie. We will have our very own poker tutor for the evening who has all the kit. It’s ok if you don’t play poker as there will be music, food and lots to drink!

If you would like to come please pay via the pay now button. Tickets are £10 per person, which will be your entry as well as your meal for the evening. If you would like to play poker, add £5 per person when booking your tickets. Thereafter each poker game (should there be more than one on the night!) will cost £5.

For this one evening only you will be asked to wear a Suit or Tux for the guys and Cocktail Dress for the girls. Any other LB events you can dress in what you like, but this occasion will be something special.

It goes without saying there will be the infamous LB Raffle in order that we can raise lots of money for the London Air Ambulance. The Punch Tavern have kindly agreed that they will donate 10% of every drinks tab created to our charity in order that we can maximise our fundraising efforts.

Tickets bought will be non refundable. All tickets purchased will be sent via email and must be bought online in advance. E-Tickets will be sent out by email. I will also be selling tickets at Borough Market as well. There will be some allocated door tickets - but not many - so buy now to avoid disappointment!!

Please supply your username so we know who’s coming, we don’t know everyone’s real names!

For those that will be driving and riding parking can be found in Tudor Street and neighbouring roads, free parking from 7pm.

Ok so lets get some names down for this great evening of poker and fun.

Even if you can’t play there will be an expert there to show you what to do, come on admit it you always wanted to have a game or two of poker but was just put off with the know how, what btter chance to learn the game and not lose a cart load of money doing it.

As i take it, you pay your table fee which is £5, you are then allocated your chips and then you play until there is a winner… You are not going to lose any more money and after all it is for CHARITY folks.

So come on deep down there is a James Bond inside a few of you i’m sure and even a Jane Bond (yeah i know not the same but the ladies do like to play a bit as well i’m sure;) ). So get your tickets and come along.

Oh and as previously mentioned you don’t have to dress up in a tux if you don’t have one, but maybe a suit or smart shirt and tie will do. But lets make this an fun evening and raise some more money for the LAA.
