Cool Hand Lukes Casino

TomPich

Hey guys i know this isnt poker related but i'm sure you guys would know.

Is it true that Cool Hand Lukes Casino will be screening the Hatton Mayweather fight.

Whats required to obtain membership etc...

Is there Poker tourneys on Staurday as i wouldnt mind playing one and then watching the fight which starts around 4am i believe!

Thanks guys

Yes its true. A passport or driving license and to be over 18 is all that is needed to join. There is a tournie on Saturday but I'm not sure what it is at the minute. Whatever it is it starts at 9pm.


I'm hoping to be there to see the fight myself maybe play a ROE....:rolleyes:

TomPich

Awesome!

So what time does the place close or is it 24hours?

Does anyone know if its 100%?

And any info on the sat night tourney would be awesome!

Cheers

I wouldn't trust that Olly bloke either. Anyhow, according to statistics - with 95% confidence we can tell you it is actually 103%.

However I may be misunderstanding your question.

Double chance? Is that basically one rebuy??? anyone have ideas of structure?

DeadParrot

no tom you get 2 stacks
like 3000 + an extra 3000 you can take any time after the 1st hand.
I'd guess it would have all levels and no antes 20 min clock
I may be wrong though

Ah right i see.

Whats the casino like, is it like the Grosvenors in England or is more of a pub type set up? Would you anticipate a big turn out due to the boxing?

TomPich

Ok, so they are showing the Hatton fight which has swayed my decision to go to the Casino.

Can people explain how things work there? What poker tourney is on sat night? When is registration? start time? dealers? etc...

How many screens do they have?

etc...

Just the ins and outs of the caisno!

Cheers

Why would you have flown home to England to see it? Would it not have been cheaper to pay for it over here?

Long story, dont have sky, dont know anyone with sky. Have wireless internet so unreliable. Girlfriend has sky but old analogue sky, she doesnt have broadband only 56kbs so everythings working against me on this. Booked a flight months ago and as it was sat-mon return i got it for 12 euro. but thats just a back up, if i can watch it in dub i will. ok?

5starpool

Welcome to the forum Tom. I have merged your other thread with this one as it serves both functions and would only unnecessarily clutter up the forum to have 2 threads about the same item.

As for the sky thing, fair enough, you must like your boxing.

Hmmm we don't like you lot coming over from the mainland and drinking in our pubs with your rangers shirts on and your bulldog tattoos.

I challenge you to a bareknuckle streetfight. I bagsies being Mayweather, you can be the Fat Manc Lad.

ooohhhhhh its on like donkey knogggggggggggg.

5starpool

Donkey Knog?

As for Luke's, I believe there is only 1 telly and it is on the ground floor, but they may have moved it to be on the poker floor for the fight. Maybe one of the more regulars (than me) or staff there can enlighten the OP as to the situation there?

bohsman

There are 2 TVs, There will be drink available on both floors during the fight and build up, usually free drink will only be available on gaming floor.

5starpool

Alcohol?

bohsman

Yeah.

TomPich

Awesome! is it a nice place to go.

Its either go there or try and stream online.

You recommend it?

I think what Dom meant was beer? or just cheap plonk !

bohsman

Only Bud at the moment but Miller and spirits hopefully by the time of the fight. Along with cheap plonk of course.

You insult me cock-a-roach!

Felipe

what will I need to do to watch the fight at cool hand lukes...can I just turn up with my passport and get in? How much is it for entry, and is there some kind of dress code?

thanks in advance

DeadParrot

A few bob to pay cash games
Yep passport if asked
free entry
no dress code per se, just a bit more upmarket than shorts and sandals

thanks a lot mate. are trainers ok?

how busy do u reckon it'll be, and how big are the screens? worried about getting a decent view lol

bohsman

Hi, I work in Lukes - dress code very relaxed, trainers tracksuits etc ok. There is a free 10euro bet for new members (ask for it) There are 5 42inch TVs spread across 4 floors so should be fine for a view, blackjack is 3euro min bet, to guarantee a good view Id recomend coming early for a while and playing for a bit while drinking free beer.

johnathan woss

Bohsman;

How badly would it be looked upon if people turn up for the fight with no intention of playing casino games or poker?

I'd be willing to pay a cover charge at the door but I just don't like casino games,etc (I'll be gambling on the fight lol).

dannydiamond

I'd nearly drive to dublin on saturday after reading all this good stuff.

Thats actually not a bad idea....running a book for the fight in Luke's?
Purely for entertainment purposes of course
