Difficulty: Challenging

What to Do

1. At the Grosvenor Casino, bet on Super Stud Poker. A Manchester based student won a record jackpot payout of £358,000 from a £1 bet at Grosvernor Casino. The game is linked to all Grosvenor Casinos and the prize fund accumulates over time, until someone wins with a special five card combination!
2. Focus on the clot machines at the Castle Casino. Odds are supposed to be very good for punters, and some of the machines have very high payouts!
3. Play poker at the Grosvenor Casino! This casino houses the UK’s biggest Poker room, capable of seating up to 250 players!
4. Take a course on gambling at Blackpool University to brush up your skills (or even to learn to become a croupier)!

Tips & Warnings

• Visit Blackpool mid-week for reduced rates at casinos and hotels. Most people come here at weekends and so companies are desperate to attract midweek business.
• Never bet more than you can afford to lose!
