Tuesday Night Poker

2 games tonight folks and 1st up its the start of the new Tuesday Night Old Forge Poker League.

This new league will run for 20/30 weeks with €40 being taken out of the pot each week, which will give €800/1200 to the pot.

There will be 3/4 options and are as follows:

1. (There is a UKIPT Event taking place in galway in August and the ticket is for €1100, I dont think we can get a ticket for this out of the current league, so im suggesting something else, which will be agreed with players at the game later tonight)

2. JP McCann has his Mini WSOP in tallaght, usually around November and the main event is usually a €400 buy in. With the league for 30 weeks the top 3 players will be sent.

3. Finally a cash league. Whatever money is taken out of the pot, again the top 3 players after 20/30 weeks will be paid.

The buy in is €40 (35 plus 5 reg), freezeout, €15k starting stack, with a 1k early bird and 1k bonus chip for texting your entry to 0868446556. Registration is from 7.45, the game starts at 8 sharp. (For tonight only this game is kicking off at 8.30) Blinds are 15 mins before and after the break with a 10 minute break after the 1st 6 levels.

The last time the league ran a final table was played for the top 10 with 4 Fitz EOM tickets being awarded, but this time i propose a new structure to the league, where there wont be a playoff, just an outright winner, therefore the best player over the course of the league will win the ticketS.

As mentioned above all the options will be laid on the table for the players to decide, but the main point is winner takes all. no more top 10 play off for the tickets, but rather the best players throughout will be the ones who win.

Jacobs well Rathdrum, also have their usual game. Each week they alternate between 2 games. 1 game is a €50 freezeout. starting stack is 62k (you are reading this correctly), blinds are 15/20 mins. no money kept behind all is paid out in prizefunds. starts at 8.30 and can run for a while with a stack this big!!

Their 2nd game is €30, with a €10 rebuy only for the first 3 levels. starting stack is not as big, i believe its around the 20k mark, and blinds are as above 15/20 mins.

Pot Limit cash game also runs when enough players are knocked out of the game.

Good luck at the table Folks.
