Regular tourney discussion - Who's going and what happened?

5starpool · 24-07-2007 5:02pm #1

Please use this instead of creating new threads every day of the same type. This can serve to see who is going, what is the best value, how many runners it gets, and then for results if any boardsie wants to post any. Any threads posted outside this will get merged into here. From July 25th this will be enforced. If this isn't working after a couple of weeks then we can do away with this, but it should remove some of the clutter from the sub forum.

Lazare · 24-07-2007 7:23pm

whats this about?

5starpool · 25-07-2007 5:16pm

OK, that's 2 threads merged already with this. Hopefully in a few days it will calm down.

pumpkinpints · 25-07-2007 5:48pm

So will this be cleared everyday or do we just run an everlasting one like the BB sticky?

JP Poker · 26-07-2007 2:20pm

I'm thinking about playing this tonight, haven't played it in a long time. What sort of runners does this game get?

And is it a 8.30 start

5starpool · 26-07-2007 2:25pm

I think it is officially an 8pm start now, but not sure. I think it got ~80 runners last month. I may play this.

Ace2007 · 26-07-2007 2:33pm

yea its a good tourney - usually between 80 and 100,

bottom feeder · 26-07-2007 3:49pm

im in....

LuckyLloyd · 26-07-2007 4:22pm

I may be in...

Misneach · 26-07-2007 6:18pm

Hey is this event on tonight> Could anyone tell me the structure, min levels and start stacks and how many runners also normally? Also how do I get there? Many thanks...

5starpool · 26-07-2007 6:24pm

I'm not sure if the structure is the same as last time I palyed it a few months ago, but I think it is:

6.5k starting stack,
3x25 min blinds
5x30 min blinds
Then 40 min blinds
Normally around 80-100 runners.

It is just off Merrion Square, across from the EBS headquarters on Fitzwilliam Street Lower. If you need more directions post here.

Misneach · 26-07-2007 6:31pm

thnx m8, much appreciated. Is there a dress code? 3/4 shorts allowed? runners? or is it pretty smart?

5starpool · 26-07-2007 6:35pm

As long as you have clothes on you are fine

Nothing to speak of with dress code.

Misneach · 26-07-2007 6:36pm

super stuff, thnx

Theresalwaysone · 26-07-2007 7:48pm

Anyone heading jackpot tonight? 20 freezeout and cash afterwards?

mrflash · 26-07-2007 9:08pm

are you sure about the structure? and are you sure about the prizepool? are you sure about anything in the fitz anymore after the calamitous ladbrokes affair? does this place respect the customer?

How many of your 96 posts to date have been anti Fitz? At least 15 I'd say. If you don't like the place, don't go and leave it at that. There are other threads where you have said your piece, no need to go bringing it up all over the place.

mrflash · 27-07-2007 1:40am

all i can say is that i was a fitz fan until last week.

5starpool · 27-07-2007 2:10am

Well your point has been noted, several times.

Cuban Son · 27-07-2007 4:28am

Any updates on the Fitz EOM? would have liked to play this.
Oh well, there's always The Red Cow on Sunday.

bottom feeder · 27-07-2007 4:38am

not sure paul i got knocked out 12th i think / went on tilt when i lost a big hand... [nothing new there] - didnt stick around to watch the rest, although Dom was still in when i was leaving...
it got a good turn out...

Cuban Son · 27-07-2007 7:01am

cheers Wes. Unlucky mate. Dom FTW!

smurph · 27-07-2007 10:01am

FITZ SCALPS GAME TONIGHT

Anyone heading in. I need to try to play good poker, played like a muppet last night sigh.

Cuban Son · 27-07-2007 10:08am

I'd love to smurph, but... well....you know:). Good Luck.

Good observation there Wes. Note that I have a pot time in this tread of 01:19 though. I went in about 20th.

No scalps for me tonight, it's pints time.

I think this got 83 runners, 20k approx prizepool...I managed to graft my way to 4th..completely card dead from 8 out....The guy who won it last month(Namir I think) was still in..not sure of the other two...

First time I've played this one and surprised at how fast the game was..50 gone in 3-3.5 hours...a bit more play in it than I would have thought....

No it wasn't the best table in the world, Kevin Fitzpatrick on my SB, Dom, Liam Barker, etc., etc., Were you at the table? don't know who you are

Macspower · 27-07-2007 3:56pm

Can anyone confirm or otherwise if the normal friday night tourney is on tonight?

Mac

ditpoker · 27-07-2007 4:12pm

hehhee, chasing you around boards... the jackpot game IS on. it will be played upstairs in the colossus while the jackpot receives a make over. Lloyd will be donating, I will be winning. my plan is to play a controversial tight game tonight... im sooo excited!!

digiman · 27-07-2007 4:15pm

Going to try and make this tonight, haven't been in a while. There is extra money on the prizepool tonight as well as far as I know and thats not because I will be there, €500 I think

u'll be winning so that you can go to the red cow on sunday???

ditpoker · 27-07-2007 4:21pm

as a side note... i don't much like this "regular tourney discussion" thread. take a wednesday, some people will be playing the se dc, and some will be playing the jackpot 40, some will be playing whatever is on in the fitz... you'll have min 3 conversations going at one time... what is wrong with the way it used to be!?! and when do we stop making sub forums and sub threads. Tournament hand analysis thread? cash hand analysis? se threads,fitx threads, jackpot threads? dealers forums? low stakes, high stakes?!?! i vote for scrapping this "regular tourney discussion" thread if anyone cares...

example: above macspower wants to know if tonights jackpot game is on. say if that had been post 39 and 3 people came onto this thread to discuss who won the fitz EOM and all of a sudden the legitimate question of "is the jackpot game on" has been relegated to a previous page. In order to know to answer it one would have to trawl back a page, and find it in amongst fitz discussion. why cant he just stick up a thread like he did "jackpot friday night?" his thread title explains what its about, if you want to discuss the jackpot game, click on it... if you dont care what happens in the jackpot, dont click it. for me, it makes more sense the old way.

i think the 500 added only comes into play from august 8th when they re-open the jackpot

Totally agree

Ace2007 · 27-07-2007 4:25pm

I hate agreeing with DIT heads - but this is a very messy thread when looking to see whose going where...

ditpoker · 27-07-2007 4:29pm

woooo! support!!

also, lloyd likes this thread.. if ever there was an argument for closing a thread..... well...
