poker club

Gambling card circle

A poker club is an establishment where people gather to play poker, typically offering tables, dealers, and sometimes tournament play for a membership fee or rake.

Unlike casinos, poker clubs often operate in legal gray areas or jurisdictions where full gambling isn't permitted.

The underground poker club ran games every Thursday night.

The term also refers simply to a social group that meets regularly to play: Our poker club has been meeting for fifteen years.
