Boards last longest at the Ladbrokes ME.

connie147

Like last year, I think it would be nice to have a boards.ie last longest for the ME at the Ladbrokes festival in Killarney. I think €50 entry fee would make up a nice little prize-pool.

Register your interest here(and your preference to have a winner take all or 1st and 2nd paid, and if €50 is ok. I'll take a majority vote)

I will post a list on Friday of whos in, once reg has closed for the ME, and the list will be names of people who :

1) were a member of boards before 30/09/2009

2) Handed me €50 prior to taking their seat in the ME, (accompanied by a piece of paper with their boards name, real name and phone number on it).

Hi Derek,
I have np with it being €20. I wasnt sure what is the norm. We'll see what the rest say, but 20 is fine

count me in......how will i find u?

IrishKestrel

Connie,

Count me in too - and I like the 2/3 (1st) 1/3 (2nd idea).

Think 20 would work better - but happy with either 20 or 50.

BTW - when I register tomorrow for the ME, will the satellite ticket be under Cue Club or in my own name? Thanks.

bantee

I have my piece of paper written out and in the wallet already. Count me in for 20 or 50 and I'll try to meet you in the room before the game.

connie147

I'll be at the reg desk from when it opens so ye'll have to see me!! I'll be the good looking guy in the suit!!!!!
Or just ask for me on the reg desk if you dont see me. I'll have envelopes there for each of you to put your entry in.

Please note: Dont ask the girls on the reg desk about the boards last longest. They wont know anything about it. Just ask them wheres Connie!

Thanks Connie - see you tomorrow.

why not leave it optional ... 20 or 50 and whoever subscribes to the larger amount are in for the €30 side bet..

Phil Baker in for €50

Enzo Scifo

Count me in

OilBeefHooked2

Inski 50 or 20 euro. I'd prefer 50 and winner takes all, either way count me in.

Only 3 more hours of work before escaping for the Killarney tourney. YES!

That said - not the best of preparations. Kincsem and The Clamper are messing with my head already and I don't even know who they are .....

Big piece of paper or small piece of paper?
Big letters or small letters?

AAAHhhh! Struggling to make any type of decision this morning - how the hell am I supposed to figure out how to play my cards .......

Thats the perfect solution Phil. So:

1-Any boardie that wants to play in the lasts longest can do so for either €20 or €50.

2. Obviously, there will be two winners, the overall highest finisher collects all the €20's, while for those who payed €50 are in the side bet for €30.
Note: If the boardie that finishes highest paid the full €50, he scoops all the loot!

2a-If everybody pays 50, winner gets 67% of the pot, r/up 33%.

3.-You have to pay last longest entry fee prior to you starting the event. I will have envelopes at the reg desk, put your name and your boards.ie name on the envelope and include your entry fee.

4-Do not ask the girls on registration about the last longest, because they will know nothing whatsoever about it. I will be at the reg desk all day while reg is open. I will be the only person here taking entries for this.

GL to ye all.

Any updates Connie?

600 gone, 157 players left at the Dinner Break. I'm just below average chips - how is everyone else doing?

Cheers

Well played Donal - and The Improver too. Great to see the Boardies doing so well and at least 3 of us cashed (possibly more).

Where did you both finish in the end. Anyone final table?
