Maddogg

Sweet

Looks like a great tournament with a great structure


see you there

KoolKid

Looks good . What sort of numbers do you get ?

big_iain

can some mod please edit the text size larger so i can read it!!!!!

KoolKid

I, d be interested in playing this. Anyone have any idea of the numbers this gets?

ElectraBlue

This is the first time they are doing it (I'm open to correction here!) doubt if anyone will have numbers yet!

The usual DPN crowd has about 18-35 regs for their local €60FO pub games, 60+ for league final, throw in the odd sharks (like Maddogg ) who only come sniffing around when the prize fund is looking good, I'd guess they'll get 40-55+ players. (Up for a prop bet?! )

Might donate myself ...now ain't that value enough to make you play!?? :cool:

zuroph

can A mod edit the actual thread title? this is a €100 freezeout in the title, but a €50 freezeout everywhere else in the post.

Wow! Well spotted

KoolKid

Hmmm a €50 + FO it is...
I'd have preferred €100 game but I'll give it a go & see what the standard of play is like.
Even just to give Maddog a run for his money LOL

PokerNights

Thanks for the replies,

could Mods please change the title to Dun Boyne Castle €50 Freezeout

the plan is a 50 game for the first month, 100 after that

guaranteed €1000 first prize on the first night

i will post an idea of numbers closer to the time as the hotel are pre selling tickets for this event

Maddogg

Well the Prize pool is looking rather tasty now Rob!!!

Think i'll defiantly have to make an appearance now ElectraBlue ……..

I noticed that its changed to a €60 FO, I would prefer the €100 FO but im sure you can change that at a later date once you get the word around about the tournament.


Ps KoolKid, you would need a 100,000 starting stack & an option of one rebuy to even give me run for my money ...............

Hi Rob , Unfortunatly can't make this today. Way behind in work with this weather.
But after the gameplay I got lastnight (Venue shall remain nameless;))
I'll definalty be giving this a shot.
I'll PM you my number if your sending out any texts.

Maddogg

i think your afraid of the challange of playing against me

i knew you would bottle it!!!!

KoolKid

Next week Ray...Next Week..
How much you want to put up on last out?

Maddogg

i thought you couldn't afford a Divorce due to the recession

i wouldn't want to take all your bankroll

KoolKid

The MadDog is turning into a sane chicken !!!!
Cant afford a divorce thats why its playing once a week

NuttKicker

There were 40 players approx (Rob can confirm) 4 full tables with dealers plus a few late comers that took up places at the table made by early exiters. Maddog arrived fashionably late by 3 levels(!) :rolleyes: Nice mix: usual DPN regs, few noobies and some really good players. I exited in 10th place: Raised-reraised-AIPF AKs no good against chipleader's 10 10! :rolleyes:

Great game, finished at a respectable 1:30am, there was no rushing to be out before 12:30am like the pubs... €50+10 is too cheap for the structure (10k stack/25 min blinds/fully dealer dealt etc) would prefer to see this as a €100+10 buy-in to attract more players. Some posters up in the locality, East Meath and Dublin 15 area would help too... not all poker players read Boards.

There was a side cash table too, soft, oh soooo soft! Made a niiiiice 500% ROI!!!

KoolKid

I would second the €100+€10 . It makes for much better play

NuttKicker

sounds good would also prefer 100+10

NuckChorris1

Played this - like a donkey for the most part. Was about 27 runners i think rather than 40. Great potential tho with superb venue, structure and late bar/closing.
Agree that it needs advertising and prob a change to 100+10. Wasn't sure if that'd put off some players but most there were suggesting it.

i was one of the noobies I'm afraid - got to start somewhere! for 60 quid I'd go again - for 110 probably not.... just my 2c !

NuckChorris1

Think at least 5 who were there wouldn't have paid the 100 (inc. two hotel regulars at my table who just gave it a lash and my cousin who got up to 50k then didn't make final table!).
Maybe better to build up numbers before upping the money.

Maddogg

Final table after hard fought game! Went out on the bubble of the pay outs

my best hand was with blind level at 800/1600 and im all in with 99 and get 4 callers flop comes K99 back in the game!!
Defiantly will play again as it is a great venue and should start pulling in the numbers

Eric split it so it wasn’t a wasted night

it should be a €100 and you will pull more players
ps i take it your talking about ciaran?

NuckChorris1

yeah. Kieron wouldn't have paid 110 and would put off some people. would prob make me not drink too

It was a good game last night . 27 players I think, Rob will confirm.
Great atmosphere in the room & a good standard of play.
Ian was unlucky to go out early with J rag suited dogging his Aces.
A good game with a good structue I'll certinly be back.
I'd also play for €100+
