Called in here last Saturday nigt. Had been at Italy match and so had a few on board. One cash table €1/€1 NL. Easy to join club and sat down. Decent dealers and dead sound lads playing. Free Heineken as well which was my downfall.
Nice spot and will be back. 0 -

I would seem that even Irish Open Champions have heard about the popularity of the Tuesday Night €25 Big Stack at the Voodoo Card Club. Our old mucker from London was kind enough to drop in and grace us with his presence in the downtime in-between tournaments in the area.
After only a morsel of persuasion Neil was keen to become the 71st player in the tournament tonight. Remarks of "Surely that isn't Neil Channing?!?" were heard on the floor as he was going through the membership sign-up process. A bounty was quickly placed on his head of a ticket to the club's Halloween Party on Sat 31st October. Such was the attraction of the already limited availability tickets that players previously eliminated from the tourney were begging to be allowed a second chance...
The bounty was soon claimed when Neil's KJ was in back shape against KQ and JJ. Neil quickly found a seat in the Round of Each cash game next to fellow Bluff Europe columnist Derek Kelly where he played out the evening catching up with Derek and amusing the table with his infamous dry humour and anecdotal gems.
He was kind enough to pose for snaps with a few of the members... Good luck at the Winter Festival Neil and hope to welcome you and the BlackBeltPoker guys back to Dublin soon!

Tonights tournament, the 3 tenners, with a maximum spend of €33, (€10+€3reg + 2 rebuys of €10 taken at any time) has been attracting a lot of interest of late.
We're averaging 45-50 players regularly for this game across 5-6 tables.
Its a nice way to start the week and shake off the Monday Blues.
There are three weeks left to qualify for our tournament and cash leagues, with 500 points needed for the tournament league and 60 hours for the cash league.
Every euro won in the tournaments are converted to league points and double cash hours available on Wednesday nights, both can be achieved with ease.
We look forward to seeing you at the tables.
There were 53 runners making a prize pool just over €1300- congrats to the three who split it... detailed results available on the the website.

Tonights tournament is €15+€5 with one rebuy or add on for €15 with 3k starting stack sponsored by roytheboy.net and ladbrokes.
We average around 30 players for this tournament every week.
Wed night game is a good one but they inexplicably skip the 150/300 level going straight from 100/200 to 200/400 which puts great pressure on your stack too early IMO.

Many people have bemoaned the missing out of 130/300 from the offering at the Voodoo. Here's a few of the factors to work towards some sort of explanation...Wed night game is a good one but they inexplicably skip the 150/300 level going straight from 100/200 to 200/400 which puts great pressure on your stack too early IMO.
- The structure does include levels such as 75/150 and later levels that are often omitted. IMO this creates a structure that I believe is very balanced from start to end whilst not making you hang around until 4 in the morning just to bubble.
- We also do not include antes. We feel that in smaller buy-in tournaments they slow down the play and increase the pressure.
- The 25 chips are raced off during the main tournament break after level 3 (an hour of play), we like not having to keep stopping the tournament. To keep them in play we might have to sacrifice the 75/150 level and have players in their seats for over an hour and a half (too long for most I would wager).
I would happily have the 150/300 level but I think it would mean that the tournament would go on much longer (most seem to be happy with the finish times) or remove later levels that would put pressure on you at a later (more crucial?) stage of the game. If you really want all the levels you can try the marginally faster but deeper stack nights on Tuesday and Saturday that include all the levels you can shake a stick at.
Love the feedback and always willing to try things out. Hope to see you at the club soon0 -

Thanks for the reply Nick. I can see your point totally but missing that level took me from a 20BB stack straight to a 10BB stack and straight into all-in or fold mode last night. Granted I was totally card dead and never got it going at all last night.
From memory I think there is a big level skipped later on (normally at the FT) as well...
And this is just feedback Nick, not criticism. Personally faster structures & missed levels do put me off playing a particular game but thats down to my style of play TBH. I do enjoy playing in he Voodoo, there's a nice vibe in the place. 0 -
