    Word is that real deal poker pulled out of whatever agreement they had going with Poker in the pub as its wasn't worth their time/money. This been due to not enough players signing up the their site.

    This is only what I've hear in the past week about the topic and I'm only passing on what I was told.

    No im sorry im not stalking you and i appologise if it looks like that .

    Im just amused that you post asking questions and you allready have the answers in your own question's , so from the outside it just makes it look like a thread was started to cause harm to the promoters event.

    I dont already have answers? Thats why i posted. There were rumours that Real Deal had pulled out but nothing on their website but on their FB page there seems to be some tie up with some crowd called betpack. I was meerely asking did anyone know what the full story was. I dont see why you are being so toucht tbh.

    Why on earth would i want to harm the promoters??? I might be going along to play is some of the side events.

    Hi All,

    just going to give you a few quick answers on the above and on Poker in the pub.

    1.What happened between Poker in the pub and Realdeal poker will stay private between both parties.

    2. Poker in the pub is running over 1 year now our first event in the Fitzwilliam card club last July saw 70+ players we Guaranteed €7000
    and paid out €7000.

    The first grand final we held in Killarney in Febuary were over 700 players played the event we Guaranteed €65,000 and paid out €65,000.


    The second grand final will take place in just under 2 weeks and we will also payout the Guaranteed prizepool

    3.Betpack.com have come on board at this late stage on the last event there will be €2000 added to the prizepool, also every entry to all events will get a €10 free bet from betpack.com.

    Regards,

    Poker in the pub

    Bad form of Real Deal to pull out so late in the day. Must be crazy IMO. Access to so many players.

    I must say your web site is a shambles and your are not running a very transparent game at all, can you please post up your events you have planed for the weekend especially for the main event also the pay outs for the €65,000, I am sure you have done all ready, can you put this up too and I hope its more pay outs than the last one cos that was very top heavy.

    I am really considering if i want to go to this game or not I won my ticket when i was going to college in Dublin a short time back but the lack of information decreases the amount of trust, if there is no response by Friday then myself and my mates will just head down to the Masters, at least we know where we stand there.
