The passionate rhythm which is circling around the streets of the capital city of Slovakia has a direct effect on its delicious cuisine and fantastic bars all around. During the real summer, Bratislava blossoms out of its potential and really becomes a lust for the touristic eye. If you combine all this with great live poker tournaments, being held at the Banco Casino, it is a great formula for success.
