    The Saturday game will be a €55 + €5 so €60 total spend double chance freezeout. 4,000 starting chips and 4,000 for the double chance chips so 8,000 chips total. It starts at 8p.m and its a 20 minute clock.
    We will add 10% to the prize pool to give the best value in Poker. Thats a 110% prize pool. (Also the winner will get a Luck Box hoodie and runner up will get a T-shirt of their choice.

    The Sunday game should be a cracker.

    It starts at 6p.m its a €90 + €10 + a €25 scalp so €125 total spend.

    10,000 starting chips (the original deepstack) and a 30 minute clock.

    This should be a great game with the added spice of a decent value scalp. I used to play this game every week in the States and it was a cracker.

    10% added to the prize pool upto €200 and Luck Box clothing added to the prize pool.

    Blinds for both games are as follows.

    25-50
    50-100
    100-200
    150-300
    200-400-25
    300-600-50
    400-800-75
    500-1000-100
    600-1200-100
    800-1600-200
    1000-2000-200
    1200-2400-300
    1500-3000-300
    2000-4000-500
    3000-6000-500
    4000-8000-500
    5000-10000-1000
    6000-12000-1000
    8000-16000-2000
    10000-20000-2000

    T.D for the Side events will be Darren Gunning and he has final say, John Scanlon will be the T.D for the Main Event.

    Great Job to Paul Smallwood who took down the side event tonight.

    Big event tomorrow 6p.m kick off, the best value game anywhere.

    €25 for a scalp is a great game knock a few people out and you get your money back.

    Big thanks to everyone who played this event and the main event.

    Thanks Ross,

    Cheers played this busted 6th, great tournament surprised there wasn't more runners, first time in the poker room a bit disappointed with the food that was provided for the side event but other than that i was really impressed, very professional setup and will definitely be returning.

    Can't comment on the side event but the Indian buffet provided on day 1 of the main event was fantastic.

    And that's coming from the man who took two spring rolls, and despite them being in the middle of sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice, thought that they were Battered Sausages!!! :p:eek::p

    Missed day 2's grub by a whisker but I will take your word for it. Top class hospitality by Ross & all at the Poker Room Celbridge over the whole weekend.

    Congrats on your 3rd place cash BTW it was nice to play with you & put a face to the Boards ID.


    :D
