Hamburg is more than just one of Europe's grandest port cities. The city is also known for its boisterous, uninhibited night life and its many clubs and hot spots.
On Saturday, one of those party spaces served as the club house for 18 Black Members, including the full VIP treatment with a separate room and open bar for the party.
To make sure that these elite PokerStrategists were comfortable in every way, our Event Team cooked up a special program for the Black Member weekend.
This included a bottle of high quality "Belvedere" vodka for the first ten members to register for the event.
Meet and greet on Friday

The Black Member Singles Event kicked-off on Friday in Hamburg's chic Marriott Hotel with a delicious breakfast buffet as well as a pool landscape to chill out after the party-going. The hotel sat magnificently positioned near the inner city, the infamous Reeperbahn and the Alster.
Our VIPs were also afforded a visit by Jörg Staben, a local master tailor, who promised new threads to have them decked out right for their next visit to the casino.
pius, mariiina and havox greeted each newcomer personally before leading the group off to a country-style Brazilian dinner. The evening then moved on to a popular club, with plenty of open bar options to keep the conversation flowing.

Our VIPs had more culinary treats in store on the day of the big party. Things kicked off with a hearty "Wiener Schnitzel" and some time for a stroll through the city. As evening fell, it was time to head over to the Black Member dinner at Tarantella, a hugely popular restaurant. The fine restaurant is known for routinely drawing A-list celebrities to its tables.
Tables are typically impossible to come by on a Saturday, but our team moved mountains to get an entire separate dining area reserved for our Black Members, including a section on the terrace.
The festivities included fine food, high-class wines and a modern atmosphere. The entire dinner concluded with authentic Cuban Cohibas and a glass of Cognac.
After midnight, the champagne corks started flying at "Moondoo", a trendy club, signalling the official opening of the Black Member party. "Strictly no rules" is the club's motto, including an open bar and cozy VIP area arranged by the PokerStrategy.com team. The floodgates were open for a wild party until the early hours.
