Monday Night Report for the Old Ship

Thanks to Craig, who continues to provide me with Pictures and Reports every week.


20 Runners tonight for our €30 Freezeout and we welcomed 4 new players to get almost 50 players on our leaderboard! There was an early exit for Egidijus Pukinskas who lost with the nut flush v full house in the first level!

Niall Higgins was the man to eliminate him and that early double up allowed him to open up his range, play aggressively and make the money with ease.. We paid the top 5 tonight and newcomer Barry Nugent was our bubble boy in 6th place.. There is nothibng worse than being the bubble but maybe Liam Power will disagree with that when he was all in with KK against Larry Deveraux who also held KK.. With 2 clubs on the flop and Larry holding the king of clubs it was pretty nerve racking for Liam.. A club on the turn gave him a horrible sweat and sure enough another club rivered to eliminate Liam in 7th place..

Larry Deveraux was our 5th place finisher to collect €30 and John O'Regan came 4th for €50.. It was a good night for "The Wicklow Niall's" as Niall O'Connor came 3rd for €70 and Niall Higgins 2nd for €110.. It was KArl Larkin though that prevailed wheb he called Niall's allin with Q8.. Niall held J5 and the board of 84932 gave Karl the win with 2nd pair.. The top 3 players were also our biggest movers in the league with Niall O'Connor going up 8 places from 23rd to 15th, Niall Higgins moving 9 places from 22nd to 13th, and Karl Larkin moving an incredible 18 places from 34th to 16th! There was also a change at the top as Larry Deveraux took advantage of a bad night for Reimo Reinpalu by going 3 points clear at the top.. LArry had been top between weeks 4 and 7 but Reimo has dominated the top spot for the last 6 weeks but LArry has now clawed it back.. An interesting tussle at the top will continue!

Apologies

This is being run by Craig Ledwith from Chip & Chair Poker and Ive played the tournament he runs in Arklow and the structure is excellent.

Finally, (i got a few texts last week about this game asking me was i taking the mick!!)
The Tuesday game in Jacobs Well, Rathdrum. 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.

As advised last week, Charles has informed me of these details and he seemed to be serious enough!! I can only advise of what I've been told.

Good luck at the table Folks.
