Genting to cease all live poker in the UK!

Reported in Pokernews today that Genting are to cease all live Poker activity in the United Kingdom.

That’s a shame, I used to play a bit at the Luton venue where they had a £750k refurb last year. Hope this doesn’t spread to other companies.

Do you have a link to the news? Did Genting cease live poker prior to this? I know in the Nevada and California (and imagine it was throughout the USA) had shut down their poker rooms and casinos due to the Covid-19 pandemic and are just now slowly reopening.

Thanks.

Genting Poker Rooms to Close for Good as Covid-19 Claims Another Victim

This is horrible news I really hope these other casinos dont follow suit. Casinos always treat poker like redheaded step child with a few exceptions. Genting is a huge company I really hope they don't decide to do this at all of there properties. What a shame it doesnt even say temporary

A culture has been destroyed because of a ****ing lie. Shameful.
