Wicklowpkrscene Christmas Deepstack Tournament 14th December 2014

Im running the usual Christmas Deepstack game on the 14th December 2014 in the Grand Hotel Wicklow. Buy in €100 (80 plus 20 reg) Starting stack of 30,000, 30 min blinds, dealer dealt and food served at the break. Cash tables available.

Ill post more details of blinds etc later on in the week.

Like last year the game is down as a freezeout. Im not a fan of re-buy/re-entry tournaments especially so close to christmas as I also feel (especially down this way) it deters some people from playing. Last year 2 players were knocked out before the break and asked to re-enter, and the majority decision from the players was to allow them re-enter.

Anyway last 2 years Ive ran this game its had a great turnout and great atmosphere, So hopefully see a few new faces along with the same old ones!!!
