Wednesday Night Poker

Kicking us off is Star Poker Bray and their €20 (15 plus 5 reg)Freezeout tournament. Kicking off at 8.00pm, you can late reg up to the end of the break at 9.30pm. Blinds are 15 minutes and you have a 10k starting stack. Refreshments available throughout and sambos served at the break (30 minute break from 9-9.30pm). Ive said it before and I will keep saying it, the busiest tournament night around wicklow as lately there have always been 70 plus players. Very rarely does this game go below 50 players. I dont know if its because of the €20 buy in, or maybe the sambos on the break do the job. Usually only deepstack/monthly games anywhere get numbers so big!!

Cash Games Available around 10 o'clock and the tables fill up very quickly. blinds 25/50c, rake is 3% once a flop is seen and capped at €3. Usually fills the 2 tables.

There is another game in Sally O'Briens in Arklow. I have been told its a €50 freezeout, with a 15k starting stack and early bird chip of 1k if your there before 8. Its been run by DR Poker (james/Miley).

Finally Whistlers Bar in Wicklow Town,

have a €20, plus 2 €10 top ups tournament. Starting stack could be 5k. Blinds are 15 Mins, and usually gets 10 plus players. This game used to be run by Ian McDonald of Donkey Poker Tour, but Ian has moved to pastures new and 2 Guys have taken up the reins. This is now run by Conor Hogan, who runs a good game and knows his stuff when it comes to Poker. When there is enough players a cash game usually gets going. (Can get a bit wild)! This week is the last week of the league that is currently running there.

15 points are required to qualify although we may lower to 12 depending on numbers.
The League final will be a €50 freezout which shall have €400 added its €50 in and 15 points gets you a 10k starting stack every point after that gets you 200 chips so you have 20 points you have an 11k starting stack. blinds will be 15 minutes and the final shall be held on the 12th of September.

Good luck at the tables.
