Nice one, Hopefully i'll be there, you probably would want to update your GJP website thingy, as it still has it as being on in the Hotel on Sundays and also if Dom could change the tournament thing at the top of the page

Hopefully this will get the numbers. Never got a chance to say well done on the festival. It was a great weekend of poker.

why such a late start? start at 3pm and there'll be no need for a 2nd day?

So that the casino can open at a reasonable hour and have all the players potentially playing table games, it also looks good for the casino if some new punters walk in and theres 60+ people playing poker, atmosphere etc. I may even get out of bed in time to play this.

6pm is an ideal time imo.
is parking handy or can you park in that shopping centre across the way?.

Oops, too busy creating our new GJP website I forgot!

The later start time is to allow those who work on a Saturday to make it and also because we are not pushed for time with it being a Sunday the next day. i doubt it will go to 2 days unless more than 65 runners.

Should be a decent crowd at this. 15 players travelling form LetterKenny apparently to swell numbers.
