    Anyone know if there is a Vegas Nights tourney on in Mileys in Blessington tonight?

    I am not affiliated in any way with this tourney btw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭BigCityBanker


    anybody in for the SE game tonight? I might try and make it back up for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Think i'll be headin to the fitz tourney tonight - 75FO


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,187 ✭✭✭Flushdraw


    Can we please get rid of this thread? Is there really anything wrong with using the regular tournament thread for asking about whos going to what and how you got on.

    Theres never a lot of high content threads on the tournie page anyway so theres no fear of them being pushed onto the 2nd page because of this so called low content clutter.

    Its so much easier to see whats going on

    Lloyd you like your strategy and high content threads as much as the next man so i can understand you saying this. I like to look and see who's going to where tonight and who won what last night. In that particular thread you can discuss some aspects of the that particular tournament. On the main page, theres threads from 3 days old. I dont think it's going to kill or upset someone too much by bringin back the old format.

    I think this thread which is over 200 posts long is ridiculous
    im with you here Tony.

    You heading into SE tonight?

    I havent decided yet Noel. I'm playing really bad and i know if i get knocked out early i'll end up in the cash game where no doubt i'll donk off a few quid. Confidence is a bit battered at the moment but this is my favourite weekly tournament so i think i'll be there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭BigCityBanker


    result from the SE 100 game pls? somebody tell me Paddy Tobin won it (yn)

    It was coming up to 5am, and there were still 5 of us left.
    I think that they skipped a level, as blinds went from 2k/4k (300),to 4k/8k (500) when this happened 1st hand .
    I'm in BB, Ben and Vera fold,Keith pushes for 44k,Paddy Tobin has a count and flat calls,I look down at KK and push for 68K, and Paddy makes the no-brainer call.
    He has 66, and Keith has A5.
    6 on the flop and 2 of us exit,leaving Paddy with about 180k .Hope he took it down,wish I could have stayed to watch the battle but I was so shattered.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭BigCityBanker


    Cheers Martin. Id be surprised if Paddy didnt take it from there alright.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,698 ✭✭✭semibluff


    i think him and V agreed some sort of a chop, as it was that late, he had 2:1 chip lead.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 149 ✭✭[DM] Frink


    Yo everyone, just to tell you all I am heading back to Dublin this week on Thursday so I should be home to play this crap shot on Thursday where people like Moneymaker and Keith take it so seriously!

    I am just merely informing you all that you might be graced with my presence this Thursday.........

    Hope there’s a big crowd, much dogging is to be had!

    P.S. where are pints had prior??

    Also MOD bit of warning next time you close it down, eh?

    theyl be glad to see the back of you in the omaha - bebop


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    In fairness now im a pretty weak omaha player but anyone in my seat could of made a few quid as when i did hit they went nuts and just gave me money.

    the quote of the day was from mike muldoon who said:

    "how do you know gordon has the nuts? eoin is betting!" and this basically summed it up for the entire tbale anytime anubody tried anything or picked up a hand i had the nuts


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,698 ✭✭✭semibluff


    yeh he's a funny man alright. another hand he played against eddy later in the night it was obvious he'd hit a monster on the river during a holdem hand when he check raised pot and then said " wel you've just passed the 3mississippi rule -" which he explained meant that after he best he counts 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3mississippi and when he still hasnt been called then he knows he wont be. this has the desired affect of making eddie call - hilarious


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭johnnysmurfman


    Anyone hitting up the Emporium tonight for the 100 + 10 game or is there a better value game elsewhere?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,079 ✭✭✭smurph


    fitzwilliam Thursday treat 9th August - Omaha game

    Is anyone heading into this. Thinking of going in as I got great feedback about it and it was actually played by (wait for It) genuine omaha players. We can't let them get away with that. I think all the wanna be omaha players should give it a try tonight.

    It is 40+10+5 (10 scalp) and 2 rebuys for 50. I think it is 2k/3k/4k (with 400 bonus).


    P.s. also has anyone spotted the Fitzwilliam Festival in November, face up texas holdem game is part of the schedule, that should be interesting, although the way I play cards sometimes, I should just put the feckin things face up.

    Anyway check it out on
    www.fitzwilliamcardclub.com

    It could be good fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭BigCityBanker


    ^^ is the 100 DC deffo on tonight?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 149 ✭✭[DM] Frink


    No way lads its the Jackpot all the way.....more fun! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 236 ✭✭ligger


    ^^ is the 100 DC deffo on tonight?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,615 ✭✭✭Mr.Plough

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭DEmeant0r

    The game tonight is 3k+500/4k/5k Smurph. Loads of chips, yet I still didn't win a hand. Last week when they got to the FT there were about 320k in play, and the blinds were only 300/600, so about 60 BB's each. That was with 26 players. If this does start to get more players then the 30 min clock and these stacks will be unsustainable I think as it would go on until 6 or 7 in the morning. It was 3.45 last week when it finished, albeit with no deal.

    If anyone is looking for a decent Omaha tournie then I do recommend this. I hope the Round of Each tourney in the SE makes a comeback at some stage, and I hope Luke's new place has some Omaha in the schedule as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    yea the omaha tournament in the fitz was good last week - and should be another good nite, most players last week were as smurph said - good players- sure there was no 100 omaha game at all, and the first 50 game started around 11:30 i think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    o and dont forget its a scaples game as well!!!!!!!

    That Festival looks really really good fair play to them, If the structures are done well it will be super.

    I can't say I am mad about it in general Some of the start times and scheduling (Main event from Mon-Weds for example) are not suited to locals who will be working during the day as well. Also, a media event, a seniors event and a ladies event? It's not the bloody WSOP for gods sake.

    I fancy playing a tournament tonite. I am unsure whether to try the Sporting Emporium or the Jackpot.

    Any suggestions?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,860 ✭✭✭ditpoker


    gone in the 3rd level. got it all in with 2 pair vs straight draw on a 3h,4h,5h. i have 45. got back up to average, lost a race, left with 500, and got 1 outered when a guy hit a house with a black Q, his only other out, the queen of hearts would have given me a straight flush... but at least i lasted 2 levels more than conor!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,440 ✭✭✭califano


    Back from the S.E 100 game. Lashings and lashings of horrible luck.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    conor gone in level 1????

    shock horror


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,399 ✭✭✭✭LuckyLloyd


    3 from 37 in the Fitz Omaha for €500 + 2 €10 scalps. Only took a top up so a tidy enough profit.

    Can't say I knew what I was doing. I just played very tight and got my stack in decently a few times. I was able to get most of my hands over with from a decision making point of view pre - flop or on the flop; which suits when you haven't a monkey about what is going on. The structure played very good and there was a huge amount of chips in play at the final tablerelative to the blinds.

    I left Nic Ryan and Marq headsup. Marq is great at Omaha and pwns pretty hard - ldo. Nic is just a sick, sick luckbox. :)

    Recommended.
