    I've just moved into the Drogheda area recently and have been looking for information on the scene - this certainly sounds interesting.

    Can anyone advise what time the tourneys will be starting? Will there also be cash games going - if so, what time would they be expected to kick off?

    Finally, as I said I've been looking around for general info on poker in Drogheda, and the only other place seems to be the Riverside. However, there doesn't seem to be a website for them. By any chance does anyone have any info on this place?

    Any replies much appreciated....

    Avoid the Riverside at all costs.
    There is a good game on thursday nights in McHughs bar . Its run by one of the owners of Green Joker Poker. €50 double chance with 5k+5k chips. it regularly gets 3 to 4 tables.
    I dont know much about the new place yet but if luke is involved it will be good.

    the monaghan lads will be up for a few games:):)
    there's a few good players around that town, so games are at a higher standard than most pub games around.

    Im a little confused , are you affiliated to this club.
    In your 1st post you are asking Q's about a new club and then you are thanking posters for info and then you are posting schedules and cash game rakes.
    Is this your club ???
