    Really think this will do well up there , If anyone does not know the two lads they run poker around Carlow and surrounding areas and do a great job , Im sure the club will be run to the same standards . On behalf of Big Slick just like to wish ye all the best in your new venture and i hope it goes well . There is a serious lack of a club up that way so i think u could be on to a winner . I hope Players get in a support ye lads as ye deserve it

    Best of Luck lads

    Best of luck from Poker Ireland.

    I know the lads that are involved in this (I've been giving them a hand getting staff this week) and they are a quality outfit......This is also ten minutes from where I work so I will probably be seen donating there regularly enough.

    How many runners did this get ?

    People seem a little afrid of omaha and who can balme them

    Every one who played had great craic


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 991 ✭✭✭tm2204


    Very nice club; I played the €100 FO on Sunday night. Great food at the break. My only complaint would be the plastic chips, i'm so used to playing with the clay ones that these just don't feel right...

    Poker would be a boaring game without suited connectors.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 490 ✭✭Russh


    Haven't had a chance to get in yet lads, but have heard good reports about this...Would ye consider maybe holding the odd Sat for some of the festival tournaments around....(Waterford Open or GJP deepstack..ME or side event, and the likes)...?

    Looking forward to getting in there soon...

    I think they're running Waterford open sats. I'm sure if there's intrest they'll run sats for any games.
