BoylePoker International Poker Open 2008 - Info & Updates

ditpoker · 16-10-2008 9:54pm #1

With less than 24 hours to go before day 1A kicks off, its probably wise to open up a new thread (as suggested by Flushdraw).

Any new info will be posted in this thread and updates (where possible) will be put up here.

So registered players have paid around $75k in rake in the last few months, some deal for Boyles.

Jbopping · 16-10-2008 10:07pm

Why havent any of us received an email about where were sitting yet? Im nearly certain that we were told we'd receive one before the day of the event.

A lot of that will have been returned in deposit bonuses.

There was a plan to contact all players with a seating draw, unfortunately due to the volume of unregistrations and re-registrations it was impractical to make the draw prior to the day of the event.

Best of Luck to everyone playing in this Donkfest. Wont be playing in it myself as I'll be watching the mighty Gunners rape Everton on Saturday. Bounty of €100 on Lurker 1977. Proof (ie photo !?!?!?) as evidence.

is there any news for a workshop on saturday, and if so what time and with whom?

The Clamper · 17-10-2008 8:16am

WILL THE SEAT DRAW BE DONE AND POSTED HERE OR AVAILABLE ANYWHERE EXCEPT IN THE REGENCY?

The Clamper · 17-10-2008 8:25am

IS ANYONE LOOKING AFTER THE LAST LONGEST BETS

IF NOT, I WILL HAVE A NOTE PAD AND PEN AND WILL TAKE THE BETS

ANYONE NOT PAID UP, WELL I WONT WRITE YOUR NAME DOWN
SO SEE ME IN THE MAIN ROOM AND ACTUALLY HAND OVER THE CASH, PRIOR TO THE START OF EVENT

don't forget to write them in block capital letters

Lady Di · 17-10-2008 9:11am

Anyone know how many ladies are playing roughly? When I know this Derek I'll consider a bet on a lady still being there on the Sunday as you suggested!

trunko · 17-10-2008 9:35am

OK so I know this is sold out. But is there any way of still gaining late entry? Any more satellites running, online or even at the event itself?

Are there still people unregistering?

What time is this starting today - is it 4.00pm?

Do you need to bring ID?

How will you know the seating arrangements?

Can you bring a chimp?

mocata · 17-10-2008 11:47am

^^ teehee! Clamper scrubs up well

niallk · 17-10-2008 11:47am

Do people still think "randomness" is funny?

karlh · 17-10-2008 11:52am

There's nothing "random" about Clamper looking like Brian Blessed in Flash Gordon.

anyway, back on topic...

niallk · 17-10-2008 11:54am

I was referring to the chimp comment. I suppose the visual joke would qualify as random if Clamper didn't look the spit of your man.

Glowingmind · 17-10-2008 12:30pm

I plan on getting knocked out of this at around 7.25pm today.

YULETIRED · 17-10-2008 12:34pm

Would be ideal for me aswell, all in blind if we are both on the same table at that time?

Is that verbal conditional declaration binding Stephen?

He always reminded me of the pysics professor Maximillian P. Arturo (John Rhys-Davies), from the TV Series Sliders
