Tuesday Night Poker

The first game to report is in the Olde Forge Wicklow Town tonight. Week 9 of the league continues tonight.

Kicking off at 8pm, reg from 7.30pm, €30 freezeout (25 plus 5 reg) Starting stack of 9k, early bird chip of 1000 for anyone in their seat by 8 and an extra 500 if you confirm by text 0868446556.

Best hand of the night gets free entry next week!

Consistently hits the 20 mark, and some new faces every week. Niall O'Connor currently leads the way in the league. Paddy Clarke beat Johnny Dunne heads up last week.

Updated league available tonight also.

Cash Game available afterwards,50c/€1 blinds, rake 5% once a flop is seen capped at €5 per pot.

Finally, 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.

Pot Limit cash game also runs when enough players are knocked out of the game. I believe they agreed on pot limit as some nights the money on the table would be ridiculous, with players losing what they cant afford!!

Good luck at the table Folks.

The Olde Ship Arklow Results

Congratulations to Craig Ledwith who took down last nights tournament in The Old Ship Arklow. Craig beat a field of 10 players to get the win and more importantly 20 points to move him up in the league.

Craig beat Reimo Reinpalu heads up. Reimo was going for 2 wins in a row and would have got a bonus 20 points, unlucky Reimo.

Best hand of the night was Quad 7s flopped by Niall Higgins. Larry Devereaux was involved in some serious hands. He went all in and was called by 10s, & Kings, He rivered his Ace for a triple up, and then called an all in with 7s to be rivered by a jack to give John a straight, Unlucky Larry.

Tournament players are also part of a league for 2 UKIPT Cork tickets worth €770 each that takes place in February 2013. Top 9 players at the end of the league qualify for the final table and top 2 of final table win a ticket each. Players chipstacks are calculated based on the amount of points they accumulate throughout the league and there are already over 50 players on the league table. €40 is taken from the pot each week to make the money for the 2 tickets.

I have updated league positions for this tournament and will bring to the tournament tonight. Reimo Reinpalu and Larry Devereaux lead the way.

This is a good game and usually always gets 2 full tables. As in 1 of my previous posts, I have taken over Chip & a Chair and will continue running the game the same way Craig did. Hope to see you all later.

Good Luck at the tables.
