Yes Multiplayer Poker is the Network name,like when playing on Paddy Power you are playing on the Tribeca Network.

Is Culchie going to attend this one to play? or just to watch and laugh at all these students who he hopes will soon pay his bills.

Culchie

I shall be there, like a lamb to the slaughter.

ditpoker

just to let everyone know we finally got our beautiful baseball caps for all those at the last three tables of this event... they come in an attractive variety of black, navy and 'royal red'! All have the sexy DIT POKER SOC logo on the front... now all i have to do is find a way to get Ollieboy to wear one at the WSOP... hmmmmm ...;)

yup, registered players on VBP can enter for free. takes 2 minutes to do. there will be 4 levels of rebuys (25/50. 50/100. 75/150. 100/200). then there will be the option of a top up. then freeze out from there.

my predictions is about 40-50 players with an average spend of 10e. say 400 + the 300 Guaranteed and the prizepool will be around 700 euro... not bad for 5 quid, or free if your VERY good!
any other Q's?

Legend_DIT

It's just like a regular tournament though if you haven't downloaded the software?

I know I have, I'm just wondering will you be turning away people who pay a fiver on the day to enter the tournament?

ditpoker

exactly, whoever hasnt registered will be playing it like any other thursday, they will have to pay 5 euro entry fee... it is free to those who have registered on VBP.

ditpoker

Just to confirm to everyone that in order to win the €300 euro in the guaranteed prize fund you MUST have regsitered with VegasBabyPoker. You will be eligible to play and compete for the prize money generated on the day, however, if you wish to be eligible to win the €300 it is essential that you register on VBP

boba_fett3099

What if i have already registered on VBP?? Can i still win the 300 or do i have to register with the bonus code?

Legend_DIT

Will the VBP prize fund be given out as if a freezout from the start - i.e once you're out and re-buy, that's your placing in the freeroll and you are only eligible for the rest of the pot.... ?

Top VBP 9 finishers share the 300 according to their placings.

phantom_lord

i downloaded the software joined up etc etc...and then something came up today so I wont be able to make it till probably 4:30, is there anyway you could put a spare stack on a table and blind me away til I get there?

ditpoker

this is no problem... just let yourself be known to the lads running it who'll be bitching about bad beats and hopping up from their chairs to deal with rebuys...see you there!

phantom_lord

Cool, cheers.

Just back form this, roughly 100people total at a guess, good tournament, had two dealers from the emporium and culchie himself on my table. Went out in about 35th, just short of a free DIT Pokersoc cap:mad:

Hadn't seen a good hand in two orbits and was getting blinded away, finally picked up A10s and went all in after there had already been a raise - i know, idiot, he turned over AJ and i'm gone.

I'd just been to the fitz freeroll last week, my 1st live tournament and was pleasantly surprised that today wasn't a crapshoot at all and had a better standard.

Any one else play??

roryc

no

damn students....

tribulus

it was in DIT, what did you expect!!!

damn old fogies!!

roryc

I was 22 last Monday....

tribulus

happy birthday, whats wrong with the students playing though??

Culchie

Out in 6th, so the bounty had a good run for his money.:)

Good game, must have been around 100 there, great turnout and very enjoyable, thanks Jeff and lads.

phantom_lord

And thanks Culchie for the thirty euro

ditpoker

i think there was approx 75 runners, I THINK... not sure... didnt see the end as i left it in my mates capable hands and ran off to the emporium (and yes im back home again an hour after the emporium kicked off... DONT ASK!!)....

if anyone still wants a DIT Poker hat i'm sure there'll be a few left over... next game is next firday at 2pm (1pm reg) 30+3, one rebuy, qualifier for teh Irish Open side event.

thanks to culchie and VBP for making todays game all that bit more exciting!

shoutman

Yea I was playing as well, got myself up to a good stack of around 25/30k at about six o clock, mainly thanks to a limped in k3 diamonds, when the flop came down k33 and first to act moved all in, i followed, dave masters little brother called and i sent them packing, first to act had aa and Little (but big in size) masters was on a flush draw.
No miracle A and I had almost trebled up.

Had to leave at approx 6.30 as had a hot date lined up :cool:
Left myself to be blinded away hoping to get into the VBP money, anyone know if this was successfull.

Jeff did text me saying we were at the final table, but I'm not too sure what this "we" business is. Anyway there was a decent standard and a good few players.

[Edit] Just checked my VBP account and have $35, cheers Culchie [/Edit]

RoadSweeper
