$250 inc reg
and when it is full

Peabob

I'm pretty glad about the no alcohol rule, although it's going to be murder for you guys. I'm tired of playing with drunks, not knowing it's on them to act etc.

I think you need to get out of the house and stop playing with the family

Lol

It's been very easy for us to run events in the past with the no alcohol rule.

Everyone respects the authorithai of a sign (over the door) saying "No Alcohol permitted in Poker Room"...:)

No theres nothing wrong there. From time to time people are dropping out and their spaces become available

I'm interested to know too as on the lobby I'm showing as regged for Day 1B and I'm hoping not to be shunted on to Day 1A.

No, once your registered you are guaremteed the seat in the starting day of your choice.

Day 1b can only be entered via satellite unless someone unregisters and frees up a space which you can then nab.

We wont be shunting people from day 1b to 1a or vice versa.

Stephen, just reading, with considerable disappointment, that you're not running the Dublin 100 for the forseeable future. A real disappointment, even though I was not going to be able to play the next one again (yet another fcking wedding). This was the best tournament, in terms of structure, I've ever played.

I'm just wondering how the IPO structure will compare to it?

The Dublin 100 might well be back, but I just couldn't justify keeping the tournament going when it couldn't get enough runners and was costing the company money month after month.

On the IPO;
Better structure, as its a 40 minute clock but we have antes this year so just depends on whether or not that suits your style.

First time i'd had a look at the structure just there, fair play Stephen, considering the buyin and the scale of the tournie that looks pretty good.

Cheers Danny, it means a lot of hours of play on Day 1, but when you make it through you will either be in the money or very close to it.
This means that Day 2 will be finished fairly early (depending on how the final table plays out). We are aiming to have it finished up by 10:30pm-11:00pm on Sunday 18th as we have a lot of plans with regards to media coverage etc

Cheers,
Stephen.

Eyecatcher

hi does this mean u will play down to a set amount of players on each start day or will play just be stopped at a set time each day? thanks

Froet

Is it possible to buy in direct? I find a kinda silly to play qualifiers for such a low buy in.

Yes. You need to register on the Boylepoker site in the tournament lobby.
