Olde Forge Tuesday Night Results

Once again good number last night with 20 runners. Top 4 were paid and it was Niall O'Connor for the third week out of 4 that won.

Niall O'Connor €220
Ciaran Connolly €130
Jason Cooper €70
Trevor Conyard €50

Damien O'Connor was the bubble boy this week (Damien did have a nice score at the weeekend though, so im sure hes not to disappointed)

Play was good overall. twice last night when all in with 7,2 off 2 players hit straights to either stay in the game/knock someone out. Niall O'Connor only arrived just before the break but ran well even when his hand was behind only to come out on top.

This game has been getting steady numbers and every week there seems to be new players with another 3/4 last night. I believe after 4 weeks there are already over 30 players on the league table.
