Thats what we kinda planned to be honest. We wanted a local festival for local people
The idea is to have a good solid weekend of poker that everyone can find a decent tournie for their pocket and still get a deep stack, long blind game.

I bet someone still goes out in the first level

What value....fair play lads.Will the hotel be offering rooms at a good rate for the weekend...?

Is there a limit to the number of players? I assume if there is, and there is a real danger of this filling up (any events) you will be posting here/antesup?

Edit: Never mind, just seen on Antesup that you can cater for 350 if necessary. Good stuff.

Sounds good anyways, and I would definitely be interested in the 300 game at least, all things being equal.

All over it!!!

Looks like a fantastic weekend lads.

We will have a deal sorted soon. Rooms are block booked, just sorting out a price, won't be done until I get back from Vegas though.

Nearer the time you will be able to buy in direct thru Green Joker Poker including hotel if you wish.

Many thanks for the responses guys. Honestly, it makes us get geared up for this even more. We talked about it and wanted to run the tournies we'd want to play ourselves and hope everyone else agrees. The "side games" will be given as much attention as the main event because we appreciate that for some players "even" the 200 event may represent weeks or months of saving so they deserve as much time and deep stacks.

Will you be able to have cash games running all that weekend?

Really looking forward to this now since I won my ticket on Friday. If any one else is looking to win a ticket, I'd highly recommend the €25 re-buy in the STAR & CRESCENT(Drogheda) each Friday. Its very very soft:) There were 18 there this week with 3 tickets up. One €1000, 1 €300, and 1 €200. 30 min levels to break then 20 mins after. 3000 chips for re-buy and 5000 for top up. Blinds after top up are only 100-200 so even the short-stacks should have about 40x BB's.

I might give this a go in the next couple of weeks. Especially since all the good players playing their should have their tickets won already...

Is there a good chance of getting away with one rebuy and top-up?
