Rob & I are in Portrush this weekend, disappointing to be missing the launch of the new schedule.

Best of luck with this Alex, hope you get good numbers and GL to all that make it in.

€4? Is this a normal rate? Seems steep to someone without much experience like myself

It's standard enough casino rate as far as I know,certainly a lot cheaper than you will find at poker festivals in hotels and the like.

You'll also get all the free tea/coffee/soft drinks you can consume whilst playing, so not a bad deal in my opinion.

I shall play the freezout this Saturday. Hope the new schedule is well received.

S.Emporium

There will be the regular cash games available from 6pm on Saturday plus €2 - €5 No Limit Hold'em and €2 - €5 Pot Limit Omaha tables. There will be a Cash game rake promotion for the month of May, any game with a €100 sit down or more will be €10 per person per hour.

The restaurant will be open from 6pm this Saturday.

Please be reminded of a couple of things. Firstly, Monday - Saturday's Tournaments will start at 8.30pm and secondly the Bad Beat Jackpot will be frozen from this Friday so only the rake and Cash Game League will be taken off the tables.

Might try get into this for the crack. Sounds good

S.Emporium

There has been plenty of talk about tonight's Tournament so could be as many as 40 or 50 runners.

Please be reminded that the Tournament starts at 8.30pm, last entry is 9.10pm. The early bird chip is now 1,000 so worth being in on time.

See some of you later.
