Up to what level can you buy in in the scalps tonight in the fitz? 2nd level? and if so would that be around 9.30? Thanks

I think you can buy until just before the break- 3*20 minute levels which is due to be 9:30 but is often 5 - 10 minutes after that.

4th in the fitz tonight. Got lucky once but felt I played about as good as I can. I wouldn't change the way I played any hands and am bitterly disappointed.

Hi guys, there is a charity event on this Saturday @ 4.30 in the Fitz - it’s a 140e buy in.
This is in memory of Eamon & Willow Connolly’s son who passed away last year.
Anybody thinking of heading in ?

Turns out that I am not going to be able to make it in for 4:30 either, would be able to make it if it was later.

Is it possible to make a donation to the charity directly. If I dropped cash into the Fitz, would that be ok? I'd really lke to support this.

Cheers

Hi Wes,
Myself and Martin bought tickets for this a while ago, I would say that it will be a full house. If i was you I would phone one of the lads
For tickets and further information please contact :
jim smith 086-1217281 (christy smiths son)
stephen doyle 086-362612
christy smith 01-8316171
to secure your ticket. We are heading in without cars as I will say that Larry Murphys could be frequented alot during the night. Scott gray and Padraig Parkinson are playing in it aswell.

You are probably right about the specsavers bit Smurph!! Tbh I haven't been reading the Tournie forum very much as I wasn't around to play anything.

No damage done as I've got one and a half horses to back into it Smurph so that will have to do. I must give Eamon or Jim a ring to book the tickets.

I've sent you a pm Jim. Best of luck to everyone playing in this.
It's a great way of allowing everyone to show their support to two of the stalwarts of Irish poker so thanks a million for organising it.

No, that was not our beloved court jester.

I was seat 9 on the FT (ie, the eejit who folded the nuts on the river face up early on). Were you seat 4?

ul. Thought you were going on to take it down when you headed to the FT. Shoulda stayed for cash though imo. Ridic soft stuff.

Also, whos playing the Jackpot 45 tonight? I'm in anyways
