    With all the class tourneys being offered around the country 45min levels should be the absolute minimum.
    A guarntee would pull in the crowds, 20k would be good.
    If dinner provided?
    Good luck with it, i'll probally play but I dont like to commit at this early stage.

    Best of luck with this Ben...Hope it goes really well for you mate.

    35 mins blind levels for 550euro.i don't think that's a good idea if your looking to get the full 80 at this.if its increased to 45mins,which is pretty much standard for this kind of buy in i will play for sure.can you also confirm that there'll be no levels skipped in this,not like last monday when the TD(not ben)decided to skip the 75/150 and the 100/200 level.total disaster.:eek:

    I hear you guys, 35 min blinds it is structure is full tho so loads of play for your stack. been busy in casino but will keep an eye on boards for gossip so if sumthing bugs you let me know here or give me a ring at the casino. Also second day i am doing a €250 + 25 omaha tourney let me know what you think of that. cheers

    i make it 3.5hours of poker before the dinner break.you might want to stick in a 10min break after 3 levels.to long without a bit of fresh air.

    45min blinds is a most for this type of buyin.can you also confirm that you WILL play all blind levels as advertised.dinner menu would be good to;)

    Ben said its changed to 45mins with all Levels, and Dinner in the hotel accross the road is included. Also there are 25ish people qualifed already from €50 tournys

    looking forward to this but have to concentrate on getting time off for it now.

    I asked Ben what are the chances of Beef or Salmon on the menu as we'll all be sick of Turkey & Ham.

    He told me I was flogging a dead horse..

    ...I Thank you..

    TKS GK & Kev;agreed;)takes a special kinda player to know when to call for you tournament life with Q9


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 134 ✭✭fl&sh


    well done nicky,another good result for you.wasn't at your table at any stage.i was on table 3 with pat storan,lyonzy,fiacra,rory and davy glen.very tight table (apart from myself) but when it broke to two tables i just went backwards after playing a hand badly and depleted my 18k stack down to 7k in the 300/600 level and the rest is history.

    as for live poker being fixed down here.there was some crazy bad beats on the night,lyonzys one outer was bad but my heart went out to joe cahill when his QQ all in was called by AQ..Q high flop.A's on the turn and river.so sick.

    as ever jude done a great job with the running of this tournament.started at 6.30pm as advertised skiped no levels and great banter at the tables.food wasn't bad either,salmon or chicken.you wouldn't get a choice of main courses or deserts at many other tournaments around the country.GG WP
