Just as a quick note. Went into the Mayfair last nite for the Freeroll. 14 people were in it. At the end they gave away 2 Tickets to the monthly 100, 50 for third and 20 for fourth.
Standard of play was quite good for a freeroll, at least not an all in festival.
Format was 1000 Starting Chips, rebuys were 1000 as well, and Top-Up 1500.
they provided two dealers, not sure if that`s the standard for the freeroll.
90 minutes rebuy with two levels of 45 mins. 50/100 and 100/200. After that freezeout with blinds going up every 20 minutes.
All in all enjoyable way to spend 3 hours, especially as I won one of the tickets.

Phew! where to start answering all the questions.
Thanks for all the positive comments on the poker front, always nice to know when we are getting it even relatively right.
And of course there are the negatives.
In relation to the first poker night, I would like to say that we have over thirty entrants for our first competition which took place on Monday 13th June, and we added €1000 to the pot, this was won by Doc Farrell.
On subsequent nights, the poker has not had as high an attendance, but we are promoting it through the internet, flyers, pub advertising and newspaper adverts.
We really are very keen to promote ourselves as much as we can, and any feedback is always welcome.
Our poker nights will get busier, like all things it does take a little time.
The website is being updated as we speak and all the tournament information will be there by the end of next week.
Thanks to our supporters, to those we dont have yet, come on down, were really not that bad..!!
Thanks. 0 -

I was there - only 9 runners last night, but very fun nevertheless. The Mayfair added €130 to the prize pooljobless wrote:anyone go to the 30 euro freezeout last night? many there? bringing the total prize pool to €400, with €280 for 1st and €120 for second. As long as they continue to do this, I will play religiously each Tuesday!
The winner was a massive chip leader from 30 minutes in, he kept on catching cards / flops and having people going all in on him while he had the nuts! I came 2nd in the end.0 -

The standard of play was alright, nothing special and not particularly muppetish either. There were only 3 of the 9 that I would consider complete beginners. It only took 90 minutes to get from 9 players to 3, maybe another 45 minutes to get to two, and half an hour heads-up. So we finished around 11:15, nice and early. The chip leader had almost a 3-1 lead over me when starting heads-up and I never drew level, though got close at times. Great heads-up practice though

I suppose im one of those 3 complete beginers as i got knocked out first .
Although after getting 52, 63, 93, 85 and the like for the first 10 or so hands i did think i was strong when i finaly got AQ and by then by the time the turn card came i had trip aces with only the river to come. but sure enough i was beaten by a flush.
But thats poker and i will sure enough go back for more.
they have a 25 euro scalp on friday so i will more than likely go in for that. last week there was only 9 runners but it was a bit of fun anyway.
ionapaul what seat where you in?0 -
No, you are not one of the three I was thinking of! Anyway I'm fairly rubbish so what do I know?
I was in seat 7 - which became seat 6 once you were gone. The guy immediately to your left (seat 2) won. I'll be back next week, but will probably stick to the Fitz for the time being on Friday nights, nice big prizepool there 0 -

A 9-way deal would have been profitable from the very beginning there! 0 -

Hey
ive played in the Mayfair twice now, both times on a friday night, the 1st time i played was about a month ago, there was only about 9 of us so we made our own table game, was good game, im sure a few of ye from here were playin, anyone remember the 2-2 vs A K and the A on the turn, be good to know whose who, i came 3rd that night and sat down at the cash game, which was enjoyable, good players there and we all made some money of each other :cool: and then the drunks come in...my god they are a funny bunch!
was there last weekend too but very low turn out, prib cause of the U2 gig, i think i met the worst poker player i have ever met (hope he doesn't read here! ) but he had the whole setup, sunglasses, hair gelled back, suit and the whole lot but brutal at the game itself...i raised in late position with A Q suited, flop comes Q high, i bet into him, he thinks then calls, another balnk, i raise most of his chips, he comes over the top for another $25 (one more chip) i call, he turns over a 3 7 offsuit with only gutshot on the river which he missed :eek: .he rebought and was gone 3 hands later,. all in after the flop with a Q 4 hopin to catch a heart on river...give that man as many rebuys as he wants i say!!.was only really an american who seemed like a challenge but he got a bad beat against a lucky player who caught trips. i didnt stick around for the cash game that night though
the good nights seem to be during the week but i cant make those one, pity cause i like the mayfair too and got some good dealers there too...dunno much about this leapfrog ye're on about though
