JOKER POKER

This new sensation has arrived on the cash tables at the club and is proving very popular. It's Holdem with 2 Jokers shuffled in. The Jokers are Wild which creates some big hands, especially when they land on the flop. It's sure to be a big part of the new Cash Race at the club. Look out for more details on here later, including Double Points night on Tuesdays.
