city west boards contingent

doc71

who from boards is playing this weekend in city west. does anyone know what time reg is open on friday and what time tourney starts (cant get on the pokerevents website from work, all gamming sh%t blocked)

Daithio

I'll be there, so will Bohsman, ocallagh, Shortstack, Devore Karlh, Pokertroll (I think) and loads of others too I'm sure. Tourney kicks off at 6pm but I don't think it'll be a sellout so if you try and get there an hour before you should be grand. Bear in mind traffic out there on a Friday is an absolute nightmare, so maybe to be safe you should just head up early on Friday afternoon to make sure you are there in time. If you send pokerevents a private message I'm sure he'll be able to give you all the details, reserve you a seat etc.

kincsem

And I'll be the dead money.

1000/1 :v:

karlh

i'll be there, should be a great weekend!

pokertroll

I'll be there all weekend. Gl.

Lplate

Myself, ZZR1100 and Connie147 are heading up from Killarney along with around 6 or 7 others. See you all there.

Horrific value.:eek:

49.1% profit to Boylesports on these 50 runners. And on top of that the rest of the field (hundreds) are playing for the bookie.

SavageBeat

I'll be there all weekend also. Should be a great laugh.

Hi Mick,

Hope the Crimbo was good to you.

While trowing away a nice stack of chips on Boylepoker last night - Donal mentioned satelittes start at 2pm on friday. I am guessing that they are stts with at least a 100 buy in

check www.pokerevents.ie

DeVore

Jeeeeez, those odds are NUTS lol.... Andy Black 8:1 to win a tounament Boyles are "expecting" 500 runners at?
How could ANY HUMAN be at those odds...

I'm flattered to find myself at the same odds as John O'Callaghan, one of the most talented, old school players in the country, I'm sure he's not flattered at all and the only one there that looks like a decent bet! (oh and incidentally, didnt he knock out both his sons in the PPP Xmas Cracker....? Yes, that John O'C, father of Dave and Niall O'C!).

I'll lay The Boatman brothers at 20:1 too.... when was the last tournie they won?

In fairness, laying odds for poker tournies is like herding cats. Getting the odds right (or even vaguely right) is hard and its impossible not to piss people off when they find out how much respect you give their game! All the same, there are some conspicuous anomolies in that list but its all a bit of fun I guess.

Damn PPP Xmas Cracker.. I still shudder when I think of it.. If I play on Friday I'll be out for my revenge!!

Doc Farrell

jeese... i didnt know all u guys had such rich sugar daddies.

i'll be playing on the Sunday and I shall resent every penny i lose.

(not that i've lost much recently :rolleyes: )

but i think i'll go out on Friday night for a pint and see what a grand pissed away looks like in the faces of the early barflies.

newsflash! roryc just rang me to say that he's puttiing me in the big one!

hang on - i misheard him.

i don't think thats even legal Rory!

Doc Farrell

oh and btw

GOOD LUCK!

(damn, i wanna play now.....)

DeVore

I wouldnt be playing even the 250 if I hadn't won the ticket

DeV.

RoundTower

I'll be playing, hopefully only the big one.

kinaldo

I might play on Sunday

kpnuts

I'll be there too. Probably arrive early Friday avo to beat the traffic and to give the satellites a go, but I'll play all weekend either way

Oscar's not a bad bet at 80/1, but I agree it's a joke!

So is there definately stt/mtt satelites at 2pm or is it just a myth, as most people know my bankroll is minimal but an auld qualifier I can stretch to.

Sats are happening from two according to the ad in pokerplayer

Samba

Satellites from 14.00. See you there.

Hitman Actual

I'm there for the big one too, first tournament in a while, but it's good to start back small!

BTW, how do E/W bets work in poker tourneys? Is it finish in the top four for a 1/4 of the odds?

cardshark202

Hoping to head out for the satellites. I've never been to city west so what bus would you get from town and where would you get off?

gerire

Ive only ever gotten the 65B out there but apparently the 50 and 77X all go to there aswell. All these busses start from Eden Key in the city centre

http://www.dublinbus.ie/your_journey/viewer.asp?placeName=Citywest

cardshark202

Yeah I just checked out the dublin bus site, I should be able to find my way there without too much trouble. Cheers.

kincsem

Just an idea.

Obviously there will be a mix of players knocked out - those with wheels and those without. Maybe we should have an informal system where players knocked out go to the Pokerevents desk and offer lifts / ask for lifts.

Then they can swop bad beat stories on the trip into Dublin. :mad:

ionapaul

Good luck you boardsters! Will be following your progress on antesup and plan to throw a few quid on Oscar and maybe one or two more. As I mentioned to Olly last night, going on a huge session tomorrow night and as a result couldn't play even if I won a ticket

Yeah right...
