Live poker in Spain or Portugal

[Derek in NYC]

Are there any casinos that spread live poker in these countries?

Spain Yes, Portugal, No.

I believe in Spain you can play in Madrid.

Ill be in Portugal in 3 weeks for vacation, cant wait...

Barcelona has a casino in the Olympic Village area, 1/2 block from the beach.

Try here

Not sure if they have regular cash games, best give them a ring.

They have regular cash games from 3PM-5AM every day. 20-40 euro limit hold 'em and 5-10 blinds PLO.

The cardplayer.com poker room directory lists 16 casinos in Spain as having poker:

They don't list Casino Gran Madrid, although that casino's website does list poker among its games:

Let us know how it turns out. I'm especially interested to know what the games are like at the Madrid casino.

BTW, the cardplayer.com directory doesn't list anything for Portugal.

Tenga suerte!

I honestly dont know where in Madrid. I go to Portugal often as my family is from there. The last time I was there, I was in a Casino and asked where I could play poker and the guy looked at me and said "Madrid"

As I had no intention of going to Madrid, so I didnt ask him to elaborate...
