Fitz EOM game

Norwich Fan Rob

I assume this is on tonight, unless i find out its not, i will be there.
Who else is going, maybe we could get another last longer going since i missed the last one.

El Stuntman

do you know if there's any satellites on beforehand Rob?

300 smackers to play is a bit rich for me but if I could luckbox my way in that'd be ideal

ocallagh

I'm gonna head in to this I think. Count me in for the last longer


El Stuntman - They do have satellites. They have an MTT around 5pm I think. (not sure on that - ring them to confirm).. and they have STTs from about 6pm onwards. Also if you feel lucky you can play a one handed blind Omaha STT for 30.

There is a lot of skill involved I'll have you know!!!

The funniest thing I saw in a long time happened last month when one guy was sitting to take his seat at one of these and ended up leaving the table when it was explained to him as he 'didn't know how to play Omaha'. Even when it was explained again to him that you just turn over your cards in sequence he still didn't want to play, but he would have played a 1 handed holdem hand. Strange indeed.

This time last week I was probably not going. This time Yesterday I was definitely going. Now I am 50/50, but I don't think I have missed one in a year. A combination of early morning and wanting to see football tomorrow evening and having some work to do tomorrow night is making me think I shouldn't go, but I still want to. Hmmm, head or heart. I'll decide around 8pm tonight. If I am going I am in for the last longest anyhow.

El Stuntman - The freeroll with €15 rebuys starts at 4.30 and sats start around 5 or so, whenever they have enough names basically. One handers start around 8.20 or so, and the thing won't get going until around 8.55 normally.

I'm on a really tight BR at the moment 'til I sell some shares next month, so I cant really justify spending the full 270.:( But I only work a couple of minutes from the Fitz now, so I might stroll down and take a gamble on the freeroll.

El Stuntman, there are 10-handed (€30) and 6-handed (€50) sats beforehand. If you decide to play these, I definately think there is more play, and hence more value, in the €50 sats.

cheers for the info Dom, I think a one-handed satellite is just about perfect for my level of Omaha skillz....who dreamt up this wonderful concept?

now all I have to do is convince the wife that I should be let out!!

did you read the other thread about the 5K prob bet and how scary that was and what would be the irish version of this.

I'll buy her a roast dinner with dessert afterwards at the break in the Fitz. Classy act I am.

Edit: Another thing, is she Irish? If so then don't come over here taking our women, it's hard enough to get one as it is!!!!

Bloody foreigners, almost as bad as those bloody students. Taking my poker money too. Bah.

who won it?

I won a sat but decided not to play...money now was too tempting

Gholimoli

any reports on this.i assume the ppl who went deep on this are still in bed.

5starpool

I went out in about 24th or so at around 1.40. I never really got going properly, but early on I was always above average, but one loss and the blinds creeping took their toll. I will write a full report in my blog thingy at some stage today. I should have taken your missus out Gholi

I think there was in the high 90's in terms of runners. The prizepool was not displayed when I left so I don't know how many prizes or who won it or whatever. The only boards player that I seen left when I finished was NTLBell, but I didn't visit the table downstairs at all.

Boardies seen there: Cardshark202 - Lost with quads on my table.
Norwich Fan Rob - Down to the cloth, made a good comeback, but seemed to be gone before me
OCALLAGH - No idea how Niall did.

I can't recall meeting any others from here last night.

With quads or against!?!? Sounds like a real bad beat story, not the usual wishy-washy crap that's bandied about.

Norwich Fan Rob

there were 96 runners, i came 34th.
5 star and hawk eye were still in when i left, just saw 5 star got 24th.

went down from 5k to 450 early, then had about 11k with half the field left, so average, kept running into the same player at the table, who had a monster literally everytime i played a pot ! , total card rack.

went out when he hit a 4 flush with AK vs my pair.
66/AJ were the 2 best hands i saw all night.

Left home at 8.40. Walked into the Fitz, handed in 270. I think I might have played 1 hand of poker. Got ALL of my chps in with a sh1t hand, got back in my car and went home. 45 minute round trip or something like that.

your not still upset about Wednesday?lol.

By the way, the old man says sorry, he realised the next day what he done and felt like a right fool, he couldn't believe he bet into a empty side pot.
