The Country Place Special Events

Poker Evening

For an evening of style and excitement, why not host your very own corporate poker tournament complete with dealers, table cards and chips? As far as corporate entertainment and team building goes, there isn't much out there that beats poker. There are very powerful connections between corporate success and poker, your individual play and personal style.

Discover and understand more about yourself and those you work with, including visible "tells" - body language and psychology at times of stress, when to read opponents weakness, risk analysis and much more. All through the dynamic game of poker. For example, methodical and neatly stacked chips are a sign of methodical, conservative and often thoughtful players. Messy and poorly stacked chips are players that play aggressive but loose poker. Often they do not have the best hand but will win because they bet the most. Poker psychology boils down to your ability to observe how other plays, and use that experience to judge how your opponents may be playing their current hand.

Your level of poker experience is irrelevant, as each event is tailored to suit the individuals participating – from those who know nothing, right through to the "old hands". For those needing a couple of poker lessons, friendly croupiers are more than happy to oblige.

On offer is a winning combination of lessons, laughs and luck – and eliminate losers as you go. A Professional croupier will guide your team through the do's and don'ts, and as there is no money at stake (just your reputation as a cool customer), everyone can relax and concentrate on bluffing their way to the last hand. Some themes that have entertained groups in the past include "Bond – James Bond", "Speakeasy -20s style", "Celebrity Poker Tour", and "Wild West".

There are 2 different corporate packages on offer:

Texas Hold 'Em 'World Series' package and Texas Hold 'Em 'Bluff' package.

In both packages your will receive:
