A BRITISH poker player has scooped megabucks in Las Vegas. Sam Razavi, from Brighton, cashed 725,000 dollars in a World Series of Poker (WSOP) event on Thursday, the biggest win of his career so far. Last weekend, the Sky Poker Tour came to Brighton for its fourth tour stop this year – hosted by Rendezvous Casino, which sits in the heart of Brighton Marina. With Sky Poker recently being acquired by the Stars Group within the last year, I was pleasantly surprised to see Sky announce a new tour this year and looked forward to playing the. Based on the recent Government guidance, we will be temporarily closing Rendezvous Brighton at 10pm on Wednesday 4 November 2020. Please note: All poker tournaments are currently suspended POKER SCHEDULES.
The Rendezvous Casino Brighton Marina calls itself a ‘Vegas style casino’. If you’ve ever been inside a Las Vegas casino, however, you might somewhat disagree with this statement, but to be fair, it does offer the biggest gaming experience in town! Housed in what appears to be a somewhat drab grey exterior at Brighton Marina next door to McDonalds, the interior will surprise you what with its dazzling, flashing lights and good array of casino games. Open 24 hours, there are bars and a restaurant on site, as well as a dedicated function space.
Brighton is an immensely popular place to visit and because of this there is an awful lot of entertainment on offer in terms of nightlife. If you want to gamble, eat and drink all in one venue though, then the Rendezvous is a good, safe choice for a night out.

Brighton Casino's
- Brighton has always been one of the most popular places in the UK for a long weekend away. The obvious attraction of the beach front attracts some people, the history of the Mod subculture as seen in the film Quadrophenia brings in many other tourists and the stunning night life and music festivals makes it a great stop for a weekend of partying and stag/hen nights. But Brighton is also one of the premier places in the UK to play poker all year round.
There are three casinos in Brighton although the Mint Casino doesn't really accommodate poker. But the two venues that do boast a card room have between them one of the busiest and toughest poker scenes in the UK. Brighton is such a big part of UK poker that popular UK player James 'Royal Flush' Dempsey made a serious contention for European Player of the Year in 2007 based almost purely on his results in the South Coast Town. Brighton is also the new home of Cardrunners instructor Brian Townsend and his girlfriend and player Kara Scott, which will surely only add to the thriving poker scene down there.
