Dusk Till Dawn (casino)

In 2006, Yong and his friend Nick Whiten were turned away from a poker tournament at their local casino after arriving one minute too late. As a result, Yong decided to open his own casino. Professional poker player Sam Trickett was at the cardroom on opening night and described it as a "place specifically for people to play poker". In 2007, Yong opened Dusk Till Dawn as a casino focused on low-stakes and recreational poker players. The casino helped the growth of the game in Nottingham. The name Dusk Till Dawn Casino was inspired by the film From Dusk till Dawn. ==Cardroom==
