Boards poker drinks? (Low Content)

ionapaul

Hey all,

We've organised nights out before with varying degrees of success. One time a group of us met in The Palace on Camden Street for pints and pool, another time we met in a bar around the corner from the Fitz. Nights organised after tournaments never work as people get knocked out at different times and are unwilling to hang around for others, pretty understandably. Any interest in meeting up for drinks and banter in Dublin city some Friday on March 7th. Obviously a serious live cash session would be planned for later in the night! I mentioned organising something to Olly and Rounders123 over the last few days and they seemed on for it. Loads of us will be around for the Irish Open I am sure...but what with some of us playing, some of us watching and some of us working, it might be easier to do in a non-poker environment.

Both dates suit me Paul and I'm on for almost anything (including my outstanding prop bet to Ollieboy and BigD for a race around Merrion Square!).

I wouldnt want there to be to much messing, were not a bunch of english yobs in tempu bah you know. The pool was very good last time i remember and then the drinks in Flannerys after. NTLBell has the pool stance down although he did go into Christopher Walken in Deer Hunter mode later on in the nite.

Are there not a bunch of pool sharks on the poker forum rounders? I'm going to have to stick clear of pool prop bets I reckon.....:p .....I'll have to get a special t-shirt for Ntlbell if he makes it this time.....

The German beer hall, upstairs in the Bull & Castle in Christchurch would be perfect for this, they do savage steaks too..

I'm in regardless.

No guns.

I've told you Olly, I'm not into a threesome with you and Dave.

Due to the expect new arrival, I'm sure I wont be around for these plans, but keep me in mind.

Some friends of mine run a club night every saturday in the bierhall in the bull and castle. It's called Fatty Fatty - mainly excellent soul and funk music. It's a great venue, but I prefer the palace for the opportunity to pwn boardsies at pool.

Yeah Bull and Castle is a nice spot, upstairs is cool as it has really big long tables which would be good for such an occasion. Most people will feel right at home as they are about the size of a poker table!
I would like to go to this and would be on for it in the Palace either as I like the odd game of pool as well, its a nice spot as well, also close to the Jackpot

Maybe a poll then for which venue for Friday, March 7th...as I don't mind as long as there is vodka of some sorts. Flannerys at some stage is an excellent idea, I've spend hundreds of hours there over the years and the memory of each and every moment in there has become precious to me...:)

Yup, that was probably the most drunk I've been in the past year. Good times.

Are people still up for this on Friday? Looks like the Palace won the popular vote, of course that is assuming those who voted are still planning to turn up! With the Wales match on Saturday afternoon the Friday is needed to have a few and be properly prepared for a full day! I'm thinking a start time of 8:30 or 9, maybe earlier for the pool sharks.

Where are we meeting for pool and what time? I'm good from 7.30 onwards for pool etc.

The Palace on Camden Street provides both pool AND pints! How about 8pm so, as I remember you go to the upstairs bar, put your name on the list for a pool table, and can sit around drinking until one is free.

Did 150 quid in 20 minutes playing that at a tenner a hand. Throw a dozen degens in and I reckon it'll get messy.

Anyone plan on coming who doesn't know what the rest of us look like? Shouldn't be a problem as some of us are 'unique' looking! But let us know and it'll be sorted out.

Is there anyone who isn't great at pool attending, as I suck and don't care to be drubbed at pool by people who already humiliate me at the poker table! :P

Marq

won't be there - working friday.
