Well done

Nice one. Daytime tournaments are a great idea for those of us with "flexible working hours" who don't like the idea of crawling into bed at 5 AM every time they play a live tournament.

handy for when you pull a sicky from work or just too scagged to make it in

I have a half day due to me soon... and my poker 'buddy' is off 'sick' with a broken ankle at the moment. Will def check it out! :cool:

Any idea of numbers yet?

The Clamper

good luck with your venture Ross,

sounds like it could really take off for you

10k with 30 minute blinds is a very good structure for good players and for half decent players to lear how to play better

congrats, sounds like a nice place too, with plasmas etc, nice 1

Can OP post the numbers for todays tourney as i'd be interested in playing this if there were sufficient numbers.

Helper_Monkey

Awesome idea! How do we get to said den of iniquity?

I believe only 2 players turned up for this which is surprising seen as it looked like a good game.

Ah well, looked like a runner!

Wait until those PPP fish start coming in on their lunch break. You could build two games around BCB and Ionapaul could fulfill a roll as a shill (in the poker sense of the word as well as the pimping sense of the word...)

The Poker Room

We had 10 runners today (Wednesday) for the tournament.

The prize pool was, €55 X10 plus €50 added so €600

1st €300
2nd €200
3rd €100

The last three players chopped it up and the structure worked well and encouraged a lot of play.

Expecting at least two full tables on friday as lots of players have already commtted to play on friday.

Hope to see you there !

Its easy to find, Its in The Square the big shopping center in tallaght, find the cinema enterance and then Atari Expo is two doors down next to KFC
in Atari Expo go upstairs large room sign on left. Its also less than 2 minute walk from the luis.

Also there is some very good deep stacked cash games every night, and running in conjunction with the day time tournaments. On an average night there is €3-€5k on the table, sometimes alot more.
There is usually a good table by 8.30-9.00p.m and it goes on all night usually until about 6a.m and obviously you can come and go as you please.

if you have questions or need directions please give me call.

Many thanks Ross 086-2301229

The Poker Room

We actually had 6 runners on Monday but due to people showing up at different times it didn't happen. We had a full table on Wednesday, It was a good game and expect two or more tables on Friday based on verbal commitments.

J.P could you please refain from commenting on my thread unless you know the facts, many thanks Ross.

Ross i don't know how many turned up as i wasn't there myself. But i did come into your club for the 1st time last night and asked one of your dealers how many players turned up on Monday and i was told 2 players.

Maybe you need to inform your night time dealers of the daytime activity

The Poker Room

J.P thanks for the advice. All feedback is greatly appreciated.

ionapaul

I gots da shill skills for da poka thrills...we're the poker team that don't just write the headlines, we are the headlines

On a sad note, they (Atari Expo) removed their killer 4-man racing game that was always good for a friday afternoon visit to see which one of us would make the best rally driver. They still have the mini basketball rings game though, so all is not lost!

Why is it illegal? Do you need to pay for membership for it to be legal? Are a lot of clubs not free membership?

Get In There

Do me a favour Ross, I've texted you numerous times and have sent you a PM but they seem to be ignored as I have just recieved yet another text about 5 mins ago.

Can you please remove my number-as given in the PM- from the texting list as I do not want to recieve any texts in relation to your club for reasons given in the PM. To be frank, its getting annoying recieving unwanted texts nearly twice a week when I couldn't make it any more clearer that i do not want to get those texts.

I do not send out the texts myself, we use a service, when you asked me to stop sending you texts I sent your message to the service, to delete you from teh texts but it sometimes takes a few days to come of. Sorry about that, I will follow up on it.

What happens if someone wins a pot off you...You just bar them, right ???

The Poker Room

That would be a nice idea but I would have no members left in the club.

Running bad and still havn't banned anyone!

The Poker Room

We had a very good two table tournament on friday afternoon.

Also had a lively cash game afterwards.

Next game, day time game Monday at 2p.m

The Atari Expo is also the safest place in Tallaght, guarded round the clock by a possie of knackers at the door(literally).

This guy seems to be getting too much of a hard time, He's just trying to promote his club like you often do on this site BohsMan & JP.

Actually Bohsman, the only time I was In your club I walked straight in and there was no one to register me. . . I was still able to sign up and play a tourney with no questions asked ! . . . .

Well done on creating a bit of healthy competition Mr 'Poker room'.

There is alot of back slapping and ' clickyness ' on dublins poker tournament scene, , most people who put you down are either connected to a club, or just trying to '' cuddle up '' to people connected to their club, so that they feel a little more part of the family.

Best of luck with your business.

It will be very tough to sustain numbers, but you have obviously rattled a few cages here !

The Poker Room

Thanks for the post. Nice to know that some people have a positive attitude and are supportive.

With regard to the safety of Tallaght and the players at the club, members of the club are able to park in the barrier secured area of the roof and have direct access to the club and don't have to go through Atari Expo. Also the club and the square have 24hr round the clock security. Been opened for 5 months and had no issue what so ever with safety or security.

Thanks Ross.

The Poker Room

We will be running are usual €65 freezeout tomorrow at 2p.m at the Poker Room.

Hope to see you there,

Thanks

Just for the record, i wasn't giving the poker room a hard time in this thread.

I only answered a question regarding numbers on a certain day, the information that i gave regarding numbers was told to me by a member of staff from the poker room when i was playing one night there, the owner was at the table and didn't correct the dealer, so i naturally thought the information was correct. I also said i was surprised that they didn't get more players as i thought it was a good game.

I have in fact told the lads who play in tournaments in Molloys (also in Tallaght) about his game, in fact i brought 6 players from my game last Friday night up to the poker room.

My only grip with the Poker Room was on their opening night when they had one of their employees stand outside one of my games handing out fliers telling players not to play my game as it was crap and that their game was much better. The same person then threatened me when i asked him to leave.

I spoke to one of the owners at the time, Dom and told him that i wasn't impressed with the way they conducted business, and that i would have allowed them to put their fliers out on my tables if they had of asked as i'm sure they would have returned the favour to me in promoting one of my games.

The poker community in Ireland is very small and everyone helps each other, i have very close working relations with just about every casino, card room and mobile poker operator.

All that said Dom did apologise about what happened on their opening and i have accepted it.

Time to move on.....

The Poker Room

J.P, thanks for the clarification.

For the record I accept your explanation as you have accepted our apology.

We are all good. Moving...on Happy days.

Your welcolme back to The Poker Room any time and nice call in the big pot on your last hand on Friday.

Ross.
