Wicklowpkrscene Deepstack Results
First and foremost, thanks to everyone who showed up yesterday. The day ran very smooth and seemed to have gone down well with the players. Big thanks to the dealers, Rebecca Mckenna, Graham Ebbs, Darek, John Molloy and Jacob Bobro.
We had 41 runners, which was quite good especially before christmas.
Congratulations to David Walsh who won the game. When heads up with Jason O'Brien both players decided to chop for €850 each and played one hand face up to determine the winner, which Dave Won. Damien O'Connor was 3rd for €350, Brian Quill 4th for €180, Stephen Tierney 5th for €110 and a deal was made for sixth and Damien Syms got his money back for €75.
The Winner:

Poker Awards
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS!!
Well done to Star Poker Bray on Winning not only Best Venue but also Best Tournament with their deepstack game.
I think this is well deserved as Marcin and the gang run a great show in bray.
Pictured is David Harris & Marcin with their awards.
Next up was Best Tournament Player and Congratulations to Craig Ledwith from Arklow who won this award. Craig seems to be a deepstack specialist and won the most recent one in Bray on the back of a big win in Dublin. Well Done Craig.
Pictured is Craig receiving his award in the Grand Hotel Wicklow.
Next up was Best Cash Game Player and the award went to Mick Dunne from Wicklow Town. Mick seems to prefer the cash to tournaments (even though he is handy at the tournaments!!). Well done Mick.
And the final award, NO COMMENT!!
Thanks to all who voted and congratulations to all the winners. Lets make this an annual thing and good luck at the tables for the forthcoming year.

Sunday Poker Part 2
StarPoker Bray, Kicks off at 8.00pm and you can register up to the end of the break at 9.30pm. Buy in is €20 (15 plus 5 reg). 10k starting stack and a 15 minute clock. Refreshments served throughout and sambos served on the break. This game is getting big numbers lately and could have anything up to 50 + players. Probably the 2nd biggest night to the Wednesday Game.
Cash Tables available when enough players are around to start. blinds are 25/50c, 10% rake once a flop is seen and capped at €3 per pot. I think the minimum you can buy onto cash for is €25 and the Maximum is €200

Sunday Poker Part 1
€75 Entry (€60 plus €15)
Fully Dealer Dealt, Food on the break and some Poker gear will be handed out as well for best hands etc as there wont be enough to go around. (Thanks to Irish Eyes and Boyle Poker for this).
Starting stack 20k. Blinds 25 mins before the break (2 hours play) and 30 minutes when you return (30 min break).
There is an option of a dealer tip of €5 for an extra 5k in chips. This is purely optional. Not all players will take it and puts them at a disadvantage straight away as they would be 5k down in chips.
I have included Antes in the structure to entice some action, especially with the blinds being so long. I dont think we will hit blinds of 50000/100000 but I have included them for all to see.
Christmas Jumpers and Christmas Hats are a must!!
The poker awards will also be handed out on the break if the players etc are in attendance.
There is a full bar (not free of course), and a full menu available if you cant wait until the break
There more than likely will be a cash game afterwards and last night I was asked to run a NLH game and an Omaha Game. If anyone is interested please can you let me know.
If its a thing where 2 cash games get going, one table will be 50c/€1 and the 2nd table will be €1/€2.
Star Poker Friday Night Results
Congratulations to Kelly Wakefield, Glenn Murphy and Andrew Byrne who all split the Friday €25 Re-Entry Tournament last night. With 36 players top spot paid €288 and the top 5 got paid. Well done!!
