Footballer seen at poker table during night out in west London.

Although his team-mate Ashley Cole recently made the headlines for causing a disturbance outside a London nightclub, Lampard seemed content to keep a low profile at the poker table.
"Rather than dance along to Lady Gaga and Poker Face, he preferred just to play poker, which Raffles has a licence for," Ms Khan explained.
"A little birdie told me that upstairs you can see the high rollers often playing £7,000 hands."
Lampard's apparent interest in poker could suggest a lucrative post-football career for the 30-year-old. Former sports stars such as Teddy Sheringham and Shane Warne have recently gone on to success at the poker table.
