If the Munster Hurling Final & the Leinster Football Final both end in draws then we will add €2000 to the prizepool.


100/1?



would you not just add 500 for marketing purposes. this is like those paddypower cash back offers or even worse boylesports. maybe make it an irish masters ticket, it has a better ring to it.

DonkeyPokerTour

Thank You

5th 360
6th 300
7th 250
8th 230

Excellent tourney Ian, very enjoyable & superb venue.

Busted 7th when I 3-bet AI with 88 over laggy chip leaders open; he dwells, briefly, & calls with J9s :eek: 9 on the turn seals my fate. A few short stacks had busted and I needed a double up to take a run at this so happy to take a race.

Roy Brindly made a playing appearance promoting Ladbrookes & adding 3 * €110 satellite tickets to the prize pool.

Overall a good game & look forward to the next one...

Enjoyable evening lads. Plenty of donks. Nice structure.
Looking forward to the next one.

Knew you were a boardsie.

I came sixth, Same lad busted me flopping quads, he also took out 2 more people with J9. He runs like God.

Nice structure, plenty of bad players and nits like newbie2. Look forward to the next one, maybe start it at 3pm though.

GG Daire and Ian.

newbie2

I can't believe you came 6th CHD. There's hope for us all.

CHD

Should have been in the last 3 at least tbh. Had 130k about 15 mins after you busted! Took Niall out in two hands

Were you sitting directly opposite me before the final table? Or where you the guy with the Ipod & shades?

CHD

Yeah before final table, with the Q7 v 67. The one who was half asleep.

tm2204

Had both you guys marked as players.

Thought you were gonna go on & take it down the way you chipped up there before he FT but you never know & running into laggy donks happens the best of us.

Anyhow WP, you play a good game.

CHD

You played well too, just need that bit of luck at the end especially with 6k/12k blinds, you raise and your committed, stupidly i let raises get snapped off when i should have taken the race. Will win it next time

The top heavy prizepool made 1st place the only spot to aim for at the FT; and that means racing & running good.

With my 88 I knew I was racing against Mark so him having J9 or AK made no difference to me but his call was pretty loose as he knows my table image from playing before and he called knowing he was behind. But sure he runs good and he did have the chips in fairness.

Heads up for Rollz next time mate :pac::pac::pac:

newbie2

Jebus lads, it's like a love-in.

CHD

Not really, when you final table a tourny you will understand.

DonkeyPokerTour

Just an FYI guys, we have booked the hotel again for the 13th of September.

Same again with a couple of slight changes, bringing the start time forward to 4pm, and going with 25min levels through out.

We wanted to go with the 16/23rd of August but the hotel was booked and we felt the 9th was too soon.

We hope to have another big turn out.

Ian McDonald
