AUL Friday night

Shortstack

This game is not going to be run anymore in this venue. We are looking at a number of options for the Northside and hope to have a tournament running in the area soon.

Yeah sorry Paul, I can't keep digging into my pocket for a venue that is not going to work. There is a pub poker championship event on in O'Niells in Duleek if you fancy a €60 Freezeout

We are looking at other venues including the one you told me about, as soon as one is sorted Boards will be the first to know.

I may head to O'Niells...or the 50 plus one in the Fitz,as a few of us had planed on playing the AUL.How are the poker championship events going and whats the structure like...?I no I read something last week out in the Europa but I cant remember.

Corben Dallas

Where abouts Duleek? Co Meath or something?
Damn is was planning to AUL tonite.

Shortstack

Duleek is first exit after the M1 Toll.

The structure is a €60 Freezeout. 5000 starting chips, 20 min levels. 8.30 start time. Blinds 25/50 50/100 100/200 150/300 200/400 300/600 500/1000 800/1500 1000/2000 1500/3000 2500/5000 5000/10000.

Could be anywhere between 30 and 80 players. Levels will be added or taken away depending on numbers. As always I will give the best structure I can within the allotted time.

Top 10 % go through to grand final where you are guaranteed some money wherever you place. More heats have been added and I would imagine first place in the grand final will at least meet our €5000 estimate - not bad for a €60 comp. €50 of entry fee goes into prixe pool.

Final will now be Wed 9th November. There are 3 heats most weeks until then. You CANNOT buy directly into the final.

Final will have 10,000 starting chips.

Tables are 8 handed.

I may head out to Duleek,anybody else heading out....?

Yea thats the one

Can I suggest The Shieling Hotel in Raheny.
It's got a good catchment area, is close to the DART, is served by a number of bus routes etc.
Of course they might be expensive and I don't know how late they'd let you go til, but it might be worth a phone call.

They don't want poker, The Regency is the same. Barstewards.

We will get another venue, meanwhile try the Drogheda tournie, it takes the same time to get there as it does to get to the Fitz for most of you Northsiders.

For anybody interested I played the pub poker championship event last night out in Duleek and it has loads of play in it (if you can hold onto your chips unlike me,but thats another story )

Keep us up to date on dates and venues mike as I may play one more of these before the grand final.
