Mr. Wolf

Hi Derek, will you bring any flyers or posters you have for this along with you next Friday, i'm sure we can get a few players to travel down, looks very good.

What are the withdrawal options if you deposit with a mastercard? Mastercard will not allow withdrawals back onto the card, so if someone were to cash, how do they get their hands on the money?

Cheque, wire transfer, netteller etc

Don't forget the $20 re-buy this evening at 8pm, 1 ticket guaranteed

Thanks

OK. I just thought that you could only withdraw via your deposit method to prevent money laundering etc.

You're right Superhans, But there's an exception when you use mastercard, as you can't draw back to it.

thanks

Just registered for this now. When is the freerole happening for the first 100 that register?

Thanks

I'll be anouncing the freeroll early next week. It will run the week after.

There are quite a few seats reserved offline, and we can only accept a few more. A lot of interest from France, belgium, Portugal & Spain.
looks like more Europeans than Irish attending at this point in time:eek:

Thanks

Bru

The Clamper

Looks like the Irish players are leaving until the last minute as usual, i hope they get in

at this rate we would be better off running the event in France

c,mon guys, dont forget the 1st 100 get the free entry to the free roll for a VIP package
free hotel
free entry + reg
free food
free entry to side events when and if knocked out of main event
#free shuttle from dublin airport to hotel
free parking at hotel
and i wouldnt be surprised if there was a frre drink or 2 aswell

so get in there and avoid disappointment later

OK, SO MAYBE THAT WAS AN EXAGGERATION,

any chance we could run the next one there?

i bet loads of Irish would be booking flights etc and booking early too

its the usual last minute rush for seats, the complain that they didnt get enough warning when they try too late

been there worn the t-shirt

what about the guys that flew from scannerland and the us of a 2 years ago for the Irish Open only to find they shudda bought tickets in advance for the actual poker

bright lads were offering up to 10k for a seat

Hi Derek,

Just a thought.. i think if you really want to get more players involved you need to fill more seats from satelites.. As you know the online sats have been slow so far..

I spoke to a few last night and they all had the same opinion.. wanted to play but couldn't get money onto the site as they don't take laser...

It's a biggie for the young Irish players.. i thinkt he Laser issue needs to be addressed before the sats start filling..

The Clamper

I AGREE
actually we were told that laser should be set up by now, so that is a real bummer

this week i shall announce some poker clubs where you can go, fill out a reg form and pay

this should alleviate the laser problem i think

Actually available in all stores with a paypoint/payzone sign.
If they say they don't, ask them to look for it:eek:

Lol, i-poker must die.
I've just spent about 25 minutes trying to set up a real money account for this. Just keep getting a 'please wait' message in the cashier. Glad I didn't leave it till the last minute, very tilt inducing.
I'm sure I'll get there eventually.

I couldn't get into cashier too earlier but it's fine now

How many are registered now? You said a few weeks ago that you would be paying out a % of the payouts on the day - can you confirm what % this will be? Can I ask you again to consider paying out the full prizepool on the day, as I think this would definitely boost numbers.

Day 1A
Online = 4
Offline = 29

Day 1B
Online = 11
Offline = 65

Total = 109 so far

There are also 150+ from France, Belgium, Portugal etc who have registered on site but not entered tournament yet.

We aren't in a position yet to determine what % wil be paid on the day as we don't know at this stage what % of players will be registering offline. Though we will be closing offline registrations shortly.


Thanks

I am not registered on your site and my only connection is via iPhone . How can I play in the big game?

Pm Me for details, or qualify through one of the live satellites held in some of the cardrooms around the country. The nearest for you would probably be the Poker Room in Tallaght. Ross would have the details for these.

If you register offline, we will put a token in your online account which you can use for whichever day you wish to play.

Thanks again

between online and offline reg, there are approx 360 seats left

as usual, players being players, the last minute brigade will come of=ver the hill en-masse

panic will ensue,

i suggest that if you intend to play, register a s a p

pm me if you have any difficulty registering,

if you want top register offline, open an account anyway and then pm me with details and i will organise offline with you

Innski.
Finally got regged after resorting to Ukash to top up my balance. Tried several shops around town today, no joy. Got home and checked their website for local outlets. Of the three listed, the 1st is closed down, the 2nd swears he doesn't sell them, so 3rd time lucky. So anyone looking for Ukash in the Dundrum area I got it in Vivo, at the Balallay Luas station.
Still a bit annoyed with being unable to lodge with my mastercard. Feels like they've appointed themselves my personal sponsor from GA.;)
