some boardsies suggested supporting lukes by attending the 50 DC first thursday in June... (thats tomorrow night by my watch)

Any further thoughts on this?

I'l head in if there are a few going and add value....

this should prob be in tourney section but as original thread was here I put it here as it might get some more hits...

If not any other suggestions?

Best suckout against a fellow boardsie.

Breifne

Yeah, count me in for the tourney, I'm a regular there anyway, but i think three or four tables is a possibility for tomorrow,

DeVore

Yeah, I'm there and if/when I'm out I'm up for some drinking shenanigans.

Sigh...... The next night I get out to play I am going to play Lukes. So I suppose it ll be some friday soon hopefully.

I begged. Then I cajoled. Finally I bribed. I'm going to have to take the thing down to pay for the privilege of playing.

"Well. you won it before, you can win it again"
"I chopped it"
"Well, don't bloody chop it tomorrow night. Those shoes aren't cheap"
"Won't be easy, there are a few boardsies playing"
"Is Ivers playing?"
"I think so"
"Don't bluff him, he's one of them station things"

Nice one Paul Ill do my best to make this

as for the side bet...easy. most hands won with a 2 and a 7 in your hand. either at showdown or last man standing...always wanted to see this put into practice somewhere other than HSP

Last No Limit game I played in Dublin, win a pot with 72 and everyone has to throw you a tenner, definitely adds something to a game full of nits.

class. where was this? would love to give it a try sometime but can never convince a table to do it

The regular SE no limit game was held in Lukes, think they did it regularly enough.

shoulda gone 2 specsavers...:D

in the nl game in the emporium we play the 72 game. it wouldnt work in a tournament. its a great game ive seen some sick action. jyminator pushing 1500 into the nuts with 72, declance8 pushing in on a 256 board against AA and going running 7's to take down the pot and the extra 90 from the table. also i called down pabloh in nearly a 2k pot with 45d on a 433 A K board to be shown 72. its a great game. if you want to play it come play the nl game. it wouldnt work in a pl or tournament game. deepstack poker only.

might pop into lukes tonight.

Macspower

Ok see a few of you there.... make yourselves known and say hello.... I'll be the big guy in a suit with glasses for those dont know me....

zuutroy

Is this you?

Macspower

yep very close

Flushdraw

Gonna pop along myself. I'd like to see a decent numbered tournie in Lukes

Macspower

well home from this... no success as you can gather by the time of posting....

great to meet some "old" familiar boardsies and some new ones as well...

Thats Declan for explaining to me on several occasions that teh 6d4d is the "stone cold nuts" and me in my innocence pushed when I saw i was holding the "stone cold nuts" only to be dogged by A10 when neither of us hit! :rolleyes:

anyway enjoyable night.....

Dub13

What were the numbers like tonight...?

He's usually right, I remember once after he told me that I did the same and luckily my hand held against AK.

Macspower

not sure of exact numbers but there were 3 tables and a full cash game going when i left

Taxipete29

Bubbled in fifth. Lost a pot for 42k with 99 AIPF against villains K10. QJ on the flop and my set on the river made his straight. Was left with one 500 chip which I somehow spun up to 7500 but just couldnt complete the comeback. Very enjoyable tourney as usual and nice to put a few faces to names.

Unlucky Paul. WP for organising a bit of an attendance. I had an exhibition to go to last night so couldn't make it but I'll be along to the next one.

Someone I know was graduating so I was giving them some support. I guess it may not be everyones cup of tea but an occasional trip to the cultural side is okay in my book.

I also spotted a fellow boardsie in the crowd. Maybe he was there for the good lookin wimmins though as he seemed a little embarrassed to be spotted.

olly, I would never condemn anyone for engaging in cultural and aesthetic pursuits - after all the appreciation of beauty is what distinguishes us from the chimpanzees (isn't that right Willie?)

unless it was dance. Dance is a No-No

Breifne

Very enjoyable night, taking 3,000 chips off macspower with my double chance after he cleaned me out was probably the highlight. I love the river!!!!

Sorry Macs, should try and make it a weekly thing, must have been a great prize pool at the end although i didn't feature, surprise surprise

Macspower

yeah I gave you only gave me a loan of them for a hand or 2.... I'm holding a campaign to have holdem reduced to 4 cards......

DubTony

It was good to put faces to the names, and it was a very enjoyable night with plenty of banter and good craic. Of course, there's not much chance of a quiet table with Macspower and Dev around.

We should really try to make a boards game a regular thing.

DeVore

Wouldn't mind that once a month, was a bit of craic!

DeV.

Were you the player who busted me when I tried to squeeze with JT and ran into kings!? Bit of a misread on my part...

It was my first time in Cool Hand Lukes last Night and really enjoyed myself.
The staff were all sound, the toasted sandwiches were smashing and I found "Luke", who I presume is the owner, to be bang on.
After we were introduced he called me by my first name throughout the night.
I know it doesn't seem much but things like that stay in your head and I'll definitely be returning as a result.
Good €30 DC tournament too.

I went in on Friday night for the 100 freezeout and yet again i walked away thinking Lukes could be one of the best clubs in Dublin/Ireland if it gets the players/support. It's a real shame there moving everything downstairs but in the long run this could mean a better atmosphere and a more profitable club for Luke.

Sorry. I missed this post. TBH I don't know if i busted you. I can't remember a hand 5 minutes after I play it, so I've no chance now. I was in seat 1 on the table with MacsPower. In case you don't know him he was the loose mouthy one in the suit carrying a rifle around. :eek: (And we wonder why this place doesn't get support? : )
I was in seat 1 at the FT as well.
