Sign-up
Red Cactus account, then your seat is locked in
Sign-ups happen on the Red Cactus Poker platform, on our venue page. Free account to create once, then one-click sign-up every week. Seats are allocated in order of registration — leave plenty of buffer for a big night.
At the end of each Tuesday tournament, the top 3 players qualify for the regional and then national phases of the Red Cactus circuit, with prizes on offer at the finals. On top of that, 2 extra spots are awarded via an end-of-season playoff — a second chance for the most committed regulars.
And consistency pays off twice: the more often you come to play, the larger your starting stack is boosted in future tournaments. A real edge for maximising your chances. Several Molly's regulars have already made it to the regionals.

Yes, the atmosphere is friendly and the regulars are welcoming to newcomers. The Deepstack format also gives you more time than fast tournaments to learn while you play. Quick tip: read up on the basic rules of Texas Hold'em No Limit before you come so you're not lost.
Of course — it's a pub. Draught beers, cocktails, sharing boards and tapas are all available at the bar. The menu is on the site or as a PDF.
You can arrive up to 1 hour late, provided seats are still available (the 24 spots must not all be taken). Your stack is then reduced by 1,000 chips per blind level already played. Let us know if you know you'll be late — it makes life easier for everyone. Beyond that, or if the table is full, you can stay to watch the night, have a drink, and sign up for the following Tuesday.
