    Why if you are expecting a capacity crowd (120) is there only ten dealers???
    Will it be like the cavan open when you pretended that a number of dealers let you down , when you know that you didnt hire enough in the first place ( nice scam IMO ).
    Will the dealers recieve the tips this time that that they didnt get at the cavan open.

    I think you are being a little skeptical and a little unfair. Dealers did let Mick down and at the last moment for the CPO. People who were due to come just didn't turn up. I know of a few dealers who when knocked out chipped in and dealt so Mick wouldn't let anybody down. Fair play to that. The IPO in Dublin, when it was in Ballsbridge. Didn't have dealers for every table. It was still a top class event. A credit to Steven and Poker Ireland.

    I believe 10 dealers is just a typo. (Or Mick can't count his ten times table--worrying:rolleyes:)

    As for the Dealer tips. I didn't deal so was not party to that. I know Mick pays his staff well and they{the dealers} have a lot of respect for him.

    Not sure whether Mick is online today. But, I'm sure he will be early in the morning to update boards of the results and numbers for his daily tournaments. I'm sure there is a simple explanation.

    On a personal note; I have known Mick for a good while. He does a good Job bringing affordable honest poker to Cavan/Monaghan. Things outside your control can go wrong and you learn from them. I am sure he learnt from last years CPO.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 713 ✭✭✭Mr. Wolf


    Who's this Ironman1 chap then?
    ALL Dealers were paid there hourly rate plus their share of the tips at the Cavan Open.
    As Iain siad it was my first time running a dealer dealt tournament and I was short on dealers from the start of the tournament (3 of my main dealers couldn't make it) but this situation was fully rectified by the end of day 1.
    Every dealer who dealt at the Cavan Open has since played some of my tournaments, and many have worked for me since.
    But thank you for your interest Ironman


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,915 ✭✭✭✭menoscemo


    Mick, can you answer whether or not there will be dealers at every table or whether there will only be 10?
    I am not having a go, just would like to know. I was at the cavan open and was lucky enough to be at a table that had a dealer but I wouldn't have liked to not have a dealer.

    Also If there are not enough dealers would it not be a good idea to rotate them around tables as some tables were self deal for hours and this obviously slowed the game down if you were unlucky enough to be on that table. I know it would put me on tilt anyway.

    Thanks for the support Ronnie, and yes I will have one dealer per table for this event, I have a total of 12 dealers and 2 floor staff starting the event with me, any who are not required will be sent home (and paid for their time) I tried editting the opening thread but was unable to do so.

    Ok since you feel the need to bring the whole tone of this down to the gutter that you have obviously crawled out of so you can brown nose Mr Wolfy's hole, i will delve a little further into the debacle that was the CPO .
    There was around 150 players pre regged and fully expected to turn up for this event to which there was only 10 dealers origonally hired and for Mr Wolf to say that maybe 1 or even 2 dealers had let him down is probably true but to say 5 had let him down is totally ludicrous, unless of course it was the intention of these so called 5 people to intentionally not turn up to make up for being screwed over in the past (who know's).

    As towards the tips I do believe that between the last 3 players of the main event that a substantial tip was left for the dealers that Mr wolf only gave 50% of to the dealers , i cannot comment on the tips from the cash tables .

    Now roll on 2009 and Mr wolf's first main game , In his post he expects a capacity crowd of 120 players to which he says he will have 10 dealers ,and when I raise a ligit question about this I get attacked and called a clown by your good self . At least big ian had the intellect to defend Mr Wolf in a polite and respectable manner . Thank you Ian you are a stand up guy. Back to topic now , Why in the first place did Mr Wolf not post 12 dealers instead of waiting until someone challenges him on this and then make more excuses about not being able to edit his post
    (BS IMO)
    Now since you have really annoyed me mr rocket sir , perhaps you can answer this for Mr Wolf also. In His thread for his weekly games he states that there is at least 2 dealers at all games , this is totally untrue. I have attended a few of these games including his friday nite game in arva and there has never been two dealers at any venue . What i have seen is 1 dealer ( high standard) rotating around the tables and Mr Wolf dealing at a table for a few mins and then going off to chip up or move someone to another table and leaving the table self deal again , and when there is enough players to start a cash game the dealer is sent to open that while Mr wolf rotates between 2 and sometimes 3 tables. (Farcical IMO).
    So now Mr Wolf has you to thank for me writing this in detail you CLOWN!!!!!!!;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 713 ✭✭✭Mr. Wolf


    Thanks for bumping the thread Ironman.
    I never called you a clown but to answer your questions in a civil manner as I always do, here goes:
    I had hired 14 dealers for last years Cavan Poker Open (expecting as I did less than 140 players to turn up) of whom 1 cancelled with 3 days notice and I believed that I would still have enough, 2 cancelled with 24 hours notice and 1 cancelled on the day (believe any of this or disbelieve it, its your choice) It was my first time attempting to run a fully dealer dealt tournament and as a result there were errors made which I promised at the time never to let happen again, nor will it.
    As for dealers 'screwed over in the past' I really don't know what you're talking about.
    All tables were dealer dealt before the end of day 1. All dealers were paid the previously diccussed hourly rate plus a share of all tips.
    All the dealers and staff who dealt for day 2 (some dealers had decided to play the side event and the side tables) were paid an equal proportion of the tip which was left by the last 3 players in the tournament. The tips per dealer ratio for the entire event was between €100 and €200 each. This was paid on top of their houly rate.
    I expect 100 to 120 players for my next event I meant to post 10 dealers minimum and cannot edit the post to change this (if any mods read this could you possibly change that to read fully dealer dealt from start, thanx)
    There are at least two dealers at all of my games mid week (me and 1 other).
    There are 3 or 4 in Arva on Fridays and Monaghan on Tuesdays.
    During the first part of the tournament I manage any rebuys and seat any latecomers. From the break onwards I deal the tables, rotating among them along with the other dealers. The final table here is double dealt to allow players as much play as possible.
    I wish I knew who you were and could put a face to your anonymous pseudonym.
    I'm sure any grievances you may have had with me could quite easily be aired, but if you wish to keep posting in this thread then thank you in advance for bumping it for me.

    Red = LOL
    Underlined =Untruths
    Mr Wolf , I have no gripe with you . It's the lies that's being told that i have a problem with and truth be told i would have left it after my first post , but then Rancid Rosie felt the need to defend you by schoolgirl name calling (sad little Biatch).
    If nothing else at least this publicity will only improve the running of your games , heck it has allready created 2 more dealers , so not too bad a result for me and your player's.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 287 ✭✭RocketRonnie


    Firstly I would like to apologise for been so presumptuous to refer to you as a clown Mr. Ironman. I agree it was it was uncalled for to refer to you as this, as I know virtually nothing about you!

    Ok with that out of the way I would like to add that you were the first person to bring the tone of this thread so low down. By this I mean to refer to a great tournament director and one hell of a nice guy that is Mick as a scammer and a thief is pretty low! Correct me if I’m wrong if that’s not what you said. For saying this I’m sure there will be more wise-cracks about brown-nosing and holes. If that’s what you get for defending someone you know a long time then so be it.

    In regards to some of the events you referred to:
    CPO- I know for a fact that Mick was let down badly and was very disappointed by this. As you can recall the weather conditions for this event were some of the worst the country had seen for decades which was a major factor. I don’t know the full details of Mick’s wage and tips arrangement with his staff so I’m not going to get involved in an argument about this! There is no way you could know either (unless you’re a sore dealer who wasn’t hired for the CPO or something!!!) so you should probably stop letting on you do!
    Weekly games- Mick has one full-time dealer, depending on the location of the game he sometimes has up to 3 dealers, one of these games being the Arva game. If Mick does happen to have a shortfall in dealers which can occasionally happen, a perfectly accomplished dealer like me or someone else who may have been knocked out of the tourney will fill in.

    I will finish off by saying that I know Mick is more than willing to listen to any advice someone has on any aspect of running a tournament or cash game. He tries to make his next tourney better than his last and so on...

    To go about this in the way you did was totally wrong and out of order! As you avail of the wonderful and friendly service that is Hibernian Poker you have Mick’s phone number. But instead of phoning Mick (a call he would have gladly accepted) you tried to make little of his service on this thread, which shows the type of coward you are!!

    I apologise for the insult caused to any clown in the posting of this thread.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 pauloc333


    well said ronnie, obviously the tournys are enjoyable enough to return to for ironman cos he has said he's noted the extra dealers. and how he can make comment on dealers wages & tips is beyond me unless he was ONE of the dealers???????


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,610 ✭✭✭big_iain


    Ironman your being a bit unfair again.These are not untrue or lies.

    There are at least two dealers at all of my games mid week (me and 1 other).
    There are 3 or 4 in Arva on Fridays and Monaghan on Tuesdays.
    During the first part of the tournament I manage any rebuys and seat any latecomers. From the break onwards I deal the tables, rotating among them along with the other dealers. The final table here is double dealt to allow players as much play as possible.


    Mick and Roger go to every game. So there is at least two all the time. The one time there wasn't was when the snow was about and driving was difficult. I was supposed to deal for Mick and i went home early.

    There are 3/4 dealers in Arva, Gary, Sean, Rodger and others every week.

    Mick as TD has to manage the tournament and payouts and at this time he is not dealing. That's his job. His does deal when there is time and opportunity.

    And the final table is double dealt every time i have been on it and there is a huge amount of play. No shuffle time just poker.

    I think these are getting a little out of hand and you have derailed the post. I suggest that you ring mick and sort it out with him.

    I will draw your attention to the guidelines and rules of this forum.

    Taken for sticky above http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=227377
    post 2 from 5starpool
    "Once all the above are followed, people posting unhelpful comments are not allowed. ...... These comments will be deleted and a warning given. Repeat offences will get a ban at the moderators discretion."


    Although, if there is a genuine grievance with Mick and Hibernian poker i'm sure he will answer your questions. I am not trying to persuade you to not ask relevant questions that boards members would want to know. But it is starting to look like a personal vendetta. From what you have said accusing Mick of not stating correctly in his posts, you are casting doubt over him and his reputation. Personally what you accuse him of is a load of ****. I think you should PM him or pick up the phone.

    Mick, will you post details of the prizes for the Side Event? Did ou say Ladbroke Reps were going to be there? Can we place bets on finishing positions in either event?

    Just for the record I play in Arva every week and there are always 4 dealers, Mick, Roger, Sean and Gary. Also final table is double dealt.
    Also any other games I've been at have had two dealers .

    I'm just gonna ignore Ironclowns comments fro the rest of this thread as its pure drivel and doesn't warrant me wasting any more of my time on it.
    Thanx to the rest of u for keeping this thread on track so here goes:
    Chaos- The side event will be a mainly cash payout (with a couple of €200 tickets for 1st and 2nd) i'll do a seperate satellite for the Ladbrokes Golden ticket worth $3,000 at a later stage. As for taking bets, i'll see if I can get a bookie along but I never run a book (to much like gambling, and as you all know by now, 'It's not gambling, it's Poker!)
    Damo- Sorry I didn't get any sign ups yet, this event will be an excellent opportunity for that and I will make sure to have all the paperwork ready.
    Ronnie, Iain, Paul & Destroyer- Thanks for the back up, but lets leave the Ironclown to his (or her) own hidden agenda.
    Richie- Glad to have you on board for this one Richie, see you on the 27th (be there for 7pm if you can)

    Hi Destroyer, (well done last nite, you're 11th in Ireland at the moment) The Ladbrokes Golden Ticket includes a stay for 2 for 1 week (28th June-4th July) with 3 satellite entries into the WSOP Main Event plus day trips and shows and stuff. If you win through to day 2 of the main event, your stay is extended free of charge. This is valued at $3,000 (about €2,200) so i'm gonna run a satellite mid April to see who wins it. You want in?

    The destroyer hits vegas.....Like the sound of that one!!!!!:):)
    As an employee of Hibernian Poker, a close friend of Mick and a person that has a reasonable understanding of the game of poker (I WISH:p) i would like to ask mr or miss iornman where they get there facts???
    Obviously if anybody reading this post has been to one of Mick's big week games (Monaghan or Arva) they know there is at the very least two dealers along with Mick and nearl always three in arva every week. And as for the smaller games, i dont think Mick could sustain paying the wages for a dealer per table!and there is lots of loyal customers that if knocked out will give mick a dig out because they appreciate the service he is providing to the locality.
    As i am obviously somewhat bias i am not going to rant about what i think of the structure of Mick's games(great)!!,,,but i would like to state that at the Cavan Open in december all dealers including myself had a re-arranged payment scheme and Mick stood firmly to that maybe even over-payed the dealers. I would love to know who this iornman person is and like to know where he/she is pulling their facts from!,,,,Also i would love to know if this Iornman would like to single handedly take on organising an event like the CPO,,,,A task to much for you i asume,,,,I think Mick has done, is doing and will do a great job in the future and like everyone in the world will learn from past errors!
    ,,,,Now, in my opinion this post is to promote a great game among a community of poker lovers and in my view and the view of many others i dont think that Iornman's posts belong anywhere near here....Thanx!

    Hi Mick, What are time you starting at on Saturday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 713 ✭✭✭Mr. Wolf


    The Saturday start time is dependant on numbers D, If we exceed 80 players starting then we'll almost certainly have to come back on the Saturday, otherwise we may be play it out on the Friday night.

    The day 2 start time will be 12 hours after the Day 1 finish time. So the options here are:
    1. Less than 80 players: Game finishes around 6am Saturday morning.
    2. More than 80 players: Game stops at 4am Friday and restarts at 4pm on the Saturday

    I hope this isn't to vague for you, but to be honest I've never been more unsure than this about a turn out. We will definitely have 60 players, beyond that I just don't know...
