REMINDER

I am going to post this every week up to the event itself. Friday the 10th August in the Arklow Bay Hotel. €30 buy in, (rebuy details to be advised). Gauranteeing a 1st place prize of €1500! The tickets are being sold thick and fast for this and there is talk of 100 plus players. I have also been told providing it runs weel, this could be made into an annual event.

€1500 1st place is not to be laughed at but I will stick my neck on the line here and say it will be a slog to win it, especially a fundraiser!! action can be very hot!!

Here is a picture of the flyer, and as I said above Ill comment and post more details every week before the event.

Saturday Night Poker

Star Poker Bray is on tonight and its the same tournament as a Friday Night "the double chance tournament. Be knocked out or go bust before the end of the break and you can rebuy again for €25 (20 plus 5 reg). Starts at 8.00pm and you can register up to 9.30pm. Blinds are 15 mins and a 10k starting stack. Refreshments served throughout and hot food served at the break.

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

Star seem to be getting 30 plus players everynight, so I can only assume tonight will be no different.

Spotted

I believe Reggie Corrigan was in Star Poker playing the Thursday Night Tournament. Reports are he was impressed with their facilities and said he would return. From what I know Reggie plays a bit of poker and see his biggest cash was for around €7500. Good to see players like this playing around Wicklow and maybe more could follow.

I have tweeted a number of poker players to see if they are ever dopwn Wicklow Area to call in and play a tournament not just in SStar but wherever there is one on!! So Dara O'Kearney, Jason Tomkins, Dara Davey and Roy "the boy" Brindley come on down, the action is hot!!!!

Star Poker Friday Night Results

Well done to Lorenzo Fuscarida and Ciaran McGrath who split Friday's €25 +1 Re-Entry Tournament. They beat a field of 41 players to share Fridays top prizes. Top 5 were paid with first place paying €328. There was no winner of this Friday's Jackpot so the money will roll over to next week.

Star Poker Bray Thursday Night Results

Congratulations to Daryl Brack who beat a field of 33 players to win the thursday €30 Scalp Tournament. With a big chip lead Daryl called an all-in shove pre-flop with K/7 only to run in to Aces. Daryl hit a king on the flop and turned a seven to win. The top 4 were paid with first place getting €297. Thursdays Poker Jackpot will roll-over to next week.

Report from Star Poker Wednesday Night

Well done to Victor Antoci who won the Wednesday $20 Freeze-out. With 58 players entered, the top 6 were paid with first place pulling down $348. Victor called an all-in push pre-flop on the final hand with 7/7. His opponent had 3/3 and when a 3 came in the Window Victor thought he was gone, only to see a 7 right next to it. Set over Set, what a final hand ! Poker Jackpot rolls-over to next week.

Friday Night

The Weekend has Landed.........

Doyles Rathnew, starts at 8.00pm. Usually gets around 2 tables. €20 buy in and a starting stack of 2.5k and a 20 min clock. You can rebuy/topup 3 times and if your gone before the break you can buy a deadstack and the 3 topups for €50. All money taken in on the night goes back out in the prizefund. Will hopefully have a report here from tonight providing Peter is playing.

The Kennedy inn, Newtown. Starts at 8.00pm, again this game gets 2 tables. €20 buy in with a rebuy/topup for €20. Starting stack of 10k, 20 min blinds and a top up of 10k as well. This as i have pointed out before is a good game. Theres no messing and the play is usually quite strong. One of the better games around, in my opinion.
