I thought you mite jam your way to a big finish. You really do pull off you lucksakness with style and finese :cool:

I'm choosing to take this as a compliment!

The game actually dragged out for ages with the idiot on my right deciding to spew off his big stack calling peoples pushes with 72o and the like to try and take people out and instead continually doubling them up. :mad:

Nah i know that u were pretty solid that time. I was a little miffed coz i didnt realise that the guy to your left was so short stacked i always hate to bubble the money.

I had a feeling you hadn't noticed that alright but in fairness the guy actually got a double up on the next hand when his push with a rag ace was called and his hand held. After that it became a real slog before he was finally knocked out so there was no guarantee that he's have gone next I guess.

I have to say the sitting patiently and pushing or folding for 3 hours was a real trip down memory lane for me. Tournies are all about enduring pain and frustration with patience and of course getting very lucky when its needed....

It's a Super tourney that is bizzarly not getting many numbers. Last week only 25 runners. FT started about 1am, 5k prize fund (2k plus for winner ..oh that was the end of month one). Week before was like 20. Going in the right direction. People are talking. Its only a matter of time before it gets to 40+.

btw. I misinformed you on the EOM last week. Paul wasn't the winner. I think the guys name was Tony. Paul went out soon after you in 5th I think...

I know Lawrence got one, no idea about the other as I wasn't there.

Edit: Brian Napier, Grey hair, taxi driver, regular won the other ticket.

Anyone know of any Good Friday Tourns being put on up in Dublin?

barrera

What sort of numbers are typical for Fitz 95+5 DC and SE 100+10 DC tonight?

Does the increase from €50 to €100 for the SE tournament on 2nd Thursday have any impact on numbers? (Have looked back a few weeks to see if anyone quotes numbers playing, but nothing posted).

Thanks in advance.

There is a pubteam event in Cool Hand Lukes starting at 4pm, off the top off the top of my head its 500per team of 5, that should also leave a bumper crowd for the 100FO at 8 30.

5starpool

The Fitz DC is not on tonight. It is an IO satellite instead.

barrera

Thanks for that - I presume the IO Sat in the Fitz will utterly kill numbers in the SE?

5starpool

Doubt it. I'd say the SE will still get a good crows. They have a crowd that is independent of the Fitz largely, and all the student types will be in for the 50 game.

second Thursday of the month, it should be the 100 game (which is actually quite a good one)

edit - I see barrera picked this up earlier, it usually gets 50-70 runners

Is CHLs €200 game on Saturday?

No, we used to have a $330 game on the 3rd Saturday but changed it to a 220 on the last Friday of the month instead.

30something

Cheers, see you to-morrow for the 100 game so

GG in the SE guys, came back from the dead then got chopped harshly . AK vs QQ all in from a shorter stack and no Ace or K hit. Then Mr Paddy Power goes on the steal and I call with Ac10c vs his J8 to send me home in 10th with Liu the taxi driver who didn't speak one word to me in a 20 minute journey to make it all the more depressing haha. Anyway well done and let me know who won.

Was knocked out immediately after KaG1888 (who was out in 11th, I went out in 10th on the final table bubble) when I made a good move I think but got caught with AT vs AJ and that was all she wrote. Great tournament, nice structure for a mid-week game, lots of play. And as soft of a plate of Brie!

Ah well done lads. Yeah enjoyed it, that bluff early on against that bloke was fairly funny Paul lol. Called everyone of my raises after that!

Won the €100 FO in Winners tonight, was delighted as it`d been a while since I got a touch, think I deserved it tbh. Its always nice to see the best player win.


Seriously though, great game and super atmosphere all night, a few boardsies at the final table, def one ill be supporting in future.

30 runners, but 42 were guaranteed so an overlay of 950.
