Cheers lads! That's my last hand of poker til the exams are over.



EDIT: a bit odd, but i didn't play a single bit of post flop poker, never got a chance to, it was all-in or fold either pf or on the flop.

Pre-flop is where its at - ignore all that flop/turn/river nonsense

Well played and good luck - I look forward to seeing the BadBeat/LOL sticky in a state of combustion at Easter.

Hold on - this talk of being rolled for one / two doesn't compute. Did they give you cash or a direct ticket? You would be mad not to play the tournament by the way...

Well done in any case. Cracking result.

it's $6.5k package, ticket is $4.5k, so I'm assuming I'm getting $2k in cash for expenses, and since I'll probably get a bus in I can just leave it resting in my account.

Can't wait to play the tournament, I'm guessing the structure is something like 10k with 1 hour blinds? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

The structure is here http://www.irishpokeropen.com/tournament/main-event-2007.php

Would be good if they just give us the expenses up front, is this what normally happens?

phantom_lord

I don't know, i hope so, maybe they don't.

lol, I guess that's true in a way, I was playing 1/2 the other night and wanted to stay there but it's way outta my online roll, now I've enough for it, plus I kinda feel like I've won 2k and I'm free rolling for the tournament.:D


EDIT, on a side note, my mother's coming around to the idea, that maybe poker isn't so bad after all

Lazare

Well played PL, delighted for ya.

The Ace Face

Well done Mt Lord, great feeling to have the ticket in the back pocket.. Hopefully, I'll join you soon.:D

Well played, it was tough going.

When I check out the payout part of the feeder's, the packages are valued at $207.90?

That isn't for the main tourney is it?

Nope. Last nights payout was something like 9x$6500 packages with 10th taking $300 or something.

That's the feeder (12+60) into the satellite (198+9.90) for the Irish Open

Hmm.. Just checked it out on PPP.com.

So if you were to win one of the above ($207) packages, how many runners would there be in the grand final?

Congrats p_l by the way...

Only 66 runners in the current one, so it represents good value if the grand final field is quite small.

Is that the route you took phantom? How many runners were you up against?

Cheers for the replies,
ish.

phantom_lord

yep, I think there were about 220 runners, and that generated 9 tickets.
