    4 important changes from the opening thread:
    1: This is now a 2 day event, day 1 is Saturday November 12th at 6pm, Day 2 starts back at 4pm on Sunday November 13th
    2: There IS a guarantee of €11,000 on this event, although at this stage its looking more like €20k plus in prize money
    3: Due to excess demand we've had to move this event to the Cavan Crystal Hotel which is just beside the roundabout on the way into Cavan Town
    4: There is a $75/$150 blind level
