Looks like they may be trying it out on a trial basis

4 days isn't realy a long trial period is it? It needs atleast 2 weeks to get a true showing. Although now that I thinnk of it. Nobody is working this weekend, Easter, so expect daytime tournaments Id think

Maybe they're going to run a few tournaments to compete with (or pick up early losers from) The Merrion, during the Irish Open?

Norman told me there has been sats going on for weeks in The Merrion. I've never been in there though so maybe someone could enlighten us. I wouldn't mind playing in a sat for the big one, any info?????

Colossus is just off Camden Street - I was in there once a few years ago playing drunk roulette. It's fairly small as far as I can remember but then again I was drunk.

Edit: I just looked it up and it's in The Merrion this year not Colossus.

I think the Monday night free entry changed its'prize from a ticket to the tuesday game. To entry into one of the Irish open competitions. about 1 month ago

I was considering entering this when it came around but looking at those prices it will need a few confidence building/ wallet packing, tournament 1st's and 2nd's before I'll ever be able to play in this event. €1500 for one nights poker... Wonder what 1st prize is. And how high it would bost you up the Eupopean Rankings to win any of these nights?

Looks as though Peter Roche won one event and got 1800 points. Must have been a huge one.
