I think I read someplace, that in the UK, you have to be a member of these clubs in order to play there.

If this is true, I don't know how much it costs to join, or if you have to have another member sponsor you or not.

In the UK you have to be a member to play in clubs or casinos. It used to be the case that you had to join 24 hours before playing - but the law changed last month and you can now join up as a member on your first visit and walk right in. Just make sure you take photo-ID (passport/driving licence) along and you'll be fine.

EDIT: membership costs nothing and you don't need a sponsor.
