    Anyone going to this? It's on 20th December. I'm just wondering if anyone know what the stacks/blind levels are like.

    I will be going - no idea on stacks yet but I know an idea was mooted that the higher up in the league you finished, the bigger the stack you got. I hope this is the case, seems fair, maybe if whoever comes 1st (Manus) gets twice the stack of the 50th finisher in the league, and the other 48 get stacks somewhere in between, this might work? Should be a fun night in any case.

    So do you have to be part of the league to play? I haven't played any tourney in the Eglinton, am I still eligible to play?

    No, you have to be in the top 50 runners in the League for the €10,000 freeroll - otherwise there would be 1000 people there. It was run in order to reward regular tournament goers and encourage them to attend often to pick up points for in-the-money finishes...which unfortunately lead to some crazy deals on final tables where only 4 were being paid, but €5 or €10 was given to 5, 6, 7 etc to ensure they got points! In any case, there are hundreds in the league but only the top 50 qualify to play in the freeroll.

    Afaik the chip leader starts on 10k though there was rumours that the top 3 will get 1k bonus chips as well but dunno for sure , 50th starts off on 5k and 49th 5100 etc..... denominations go up in 100 for every place , should be a great night , currently im on for 8900 but that could change in the last 3 weeks as everyone will be going hell for leather to try and get a good starting stack for the big one , roll on 20th :D
