    5/6 am?, wow that's too late (or early). I presume their will be sit n gos from about 10. I might head into these instead

    Can you post the schedule for the rest of the event. (sorry if I missed it)

    thanks!

    ... This is the first poker charity event I know of that is fully transparent and also with dealers...

    Fyi all charity poker tournaments run in the Fitzwilliam Card Club are, and have always been, fully transparent. And there have been dealers provided.

    I am quite sure the above is correct. I.M.O the Fitzwilliam is one of the best run and most professional cardrooms in Europe. In no way was I suggesting otherwise. However I have never actually attended a charity event in the Fitz.

    What I was reffering to was the charity events I myself have attended around the country and it was painfully obvious the organizors were not only making profit but the transparency of the fund and the amount raised for the charity was zero.
    I have attended several where the organizors were genuine and it was clear what amount was donated, but I dont re call any of these having dealers etc.
    I hope this is clear and again I.M.O a 100% transparent charity event run by the Fitz would be a given. I simply never attended one.

    It will start @ 8 sharp. However it seems the demand is extremely high so I reccomend early arrival. We will be able to cater for up to 450.

    Fintan
