big_iain

Iain Cheyne
Hazel
Tom Ryan
Paddy
Plus 5 other randoms.

Although i think i will chop and come second. to Hazel.

Mr. Wolf

Close guess Iain; Tom and Paddy went out 12th and 14th, Iain finished 9th and Hazel didn't make it to the last 3 tables unfortunately.

We'd 51 players which generated a €3,060 prize-pool, plus the €500 added bonus made a total of €3,560:

1st and 2nd chopped when it got to heads up so the pay outs went as follows:

1st: €950 (Dave 'The Tiger' Thompson)
2nd: €950 (Mark Beckett)
3rd: €400 (Shane Cassidy)
4th: €300
5th: €250

7th: €160
8th: €120
9th: €100
10th: €80

Best Hand: €50 ticket

Hot-Rod

Sorry Mick completely forgot about this game, was too busy comforting (slagging) malcolm in his hour of need (Newcastle getting relegated) .

Great turnout for the game.

The guy who came 2nd, Mark Beckett, is he a young lad from Enniskillen direction?

Mr. Wolf

Thats him Rod, there must be something in the water up there, Marks played 7 tourneys, cashed in 6, won 3 and come 2nd in 2.

Hot-Rod

Its not the water Mick, I taught him how to play every lunch when i used to work in Asda in Enniskillen . Good poker school in there, at least 5 good player work in there. You never seen poker moves like it all in vain of winning £10 :eek: and bragging rights for the next day.

Nah Mark is a good wee player, solid plus excellant at reading players.

Mr. Wolf

You're not wrong there, he came to the final table as the shortest stack and to be honest he should have won it out. The chop was a fair result as they'd been playing for 8 hours at that stage and everyone was getting tired.
We miss you guys around the seasons btw. Tell Malcolm I'll pay his scalp chip tonite if ye fancy a game (its his Newcy Relegation commiseration chip)
