We reckon we may have stumbled upon another poker-related phenomenon here at Redtooth Poker following the introduction of Betfred’s hugely popular sportsbook betting at our recent Scottish regional final. It almost goes without saying that poker players – not usually shy retiring types – are confident about backing themselves at generous odds to win. Of course, your mates can back you too.  Confident? continued »

Neil McTaggart wins the Scotland Regional Final!

Players from all over Scotland gathered at the Queens Retreat, South Queensferry on Sunday 24th May to battle it out to become the Season 1 Redtooth Champion for Scotland.
Stuart Edby from the Northern Bar, Aberdeen had the dubious honour of being eliminated first, a three hundred mile round trip for one hand of cards.

Our on-line partners Betfred had for the first time ever given players the opportunity to have a bet on themselves in the final. Frank Coan, landlord of the Queens Retreat was one of the first to take up this option, placing bets on all of the qualifiers from the Queens Retreat, unfortunately his faith was not justified with Dave Merritt in 17th place being the best placed finisher.

Good luck and may the flop be with you.

Queens Retreat landlord Frank Coan is confident that his players are going to take down the Scottish title.

Frank a renowned Celtic fan who has given up his season ticket for the last game of the season in order to support his players in the regional final, has even had a lucky punt with Betfred on his home pub players.

If you want to bet on yourself or your friends simply go online or go into your local Betfred shop.

Spirit Group pub Ship & Royal sail away on they’re first night in Blackpool with 21 players registered.  Manager Lee Jane said “Its a fantastic turnout with old customers socialising with new customers. This would of been a quiet night if it wasn’t for Redtooth Poker”

League winner Michael Shingleton of the Barracuda Bar, Chester Le Street hit his first ever Royal Flush on his rise to the top of the table. He played K 10 of spades hitting the flush on the turn and never cracked a smile, resulting in being well paid by generous Matthew Ebdon. Well done!
