How many times have you thought, “I could do that” while watching somebody fold middle set to top set on High Stakes Poker? It’s not that easy, but it can be done.

The top prize is a €60,000 sponsorship package which will see you winging your way to events such as EPT’s in London and San Remo, GUKPT London, and of course our very own Irish Open and Irish Winter Festival.

Here’s the link with all the details

It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity for one of you, so get onto the tables now and make it happen!

Big Paulie Cool is on the slopes (hopefully not too slippery) this week so its been left to my humble self and the one and only Noel to bounce the doors of the blog.

The new Irish Open Cash Race is beginning to get into full swing, and after a cagey start, tactics now seem to have been thrown out the window as players rattle up the leaderboards. And it’s great to see lots of brand new faces in the mix and ready do battle with the Back That Ace Up stalwarts, all in search of over $5,000 in cash a week AND a cool way of winning a seat at this years Irish Open. We’ve designed the promotion so that all you cash games moguls can scrub up on your tourney play just in case we see you in Citywest.

Check out the leaderboards…maybe you’re in there? And if you are not, well why not?

paddypowerpoker.com are very, very very, pleased to announce what has been locally described as the greatest thing to happen to this country since Ballinspittle…

Yes, our new VIP C*A*S*H Programme has been launched. It’s now easier to climb the ranks of the poker militia AND you earn more $$$$ while you are dong it. In fact, if you have the wind behind you, you can earn an UNLIMITED bonus at VIP level 6! Gone are the days of boringly grinding the hours away looking for the Holy Grail of that elusive next VIP level jump.

We contacted the mayor of Ballinspittle earlier for comment…

“I’ve sold the burger van and committed full blast to ppp’s new VIP programme. Sure, there’s far more money in this lark than burgers…paddy power must be mad, or he fell and banged his bulb off the ground or something I dunno at all at all”

Thanks your Mayorness!

Anyway folks, it’s now here for all to see.

Winner of the IWF feeder token is (drums)…

MonkeyNo5 for his rendition of Lies! No not that Fleetwood Mac tune, but this beauty,

Opened the blog today
Paddy Power had another giveaway
The field was wide open
For a free feeder token
I just couldn’t think of anything to say!

MonkeyNo5 went on to post 3 more Limericks…

Play has just finished for the night.

Here’s the big info…

Duthie out Q>H Q>D versus K>D K>S, his opponent spiking a Q on the flop. There is now a bidding war over who gets to be massaged out of ther tournament. The said massage merchant obviously knows poker, as she was last seen drooling over Sorel Mizzi’s chips and shoulders.

Doyle Brunson is in a pretty commanding position too. Hats off to PPP’s Keith Elliott on finding the perfect moped automobile for the legend of legends to get around the poker hall for the weekend, in Crumlin of all places! Some man to pick locks, our Keith. Texas Dolly was last seen doing 8mph past the cash desk. Easy now Doylers!

Stay tuned for the next episode tomorrow…

btw The Fox just informs all Deise that he has finished the day with 30,075.

Good nights.

Brian O Keeffe has now informed us that he said the Greeks were actually a ”quiet race”, while also informing us that  Greekfish was indeed playing like a “fishmonger”.

This is getting ridiculous.

Brian O Keeffe obviously likes his position now…nerves seem to be calmed as he now feels comfortable to get involved in a chat-fight with the Greekfish.

Greekfish decided to spar with another guy at the table, asking him to show an obvious bluff. Somebody asks if the Greekfish is actually Greek?

“No I’m actually Cypriot!” replies Greekfish.

Enter The Fox…”I thought the Greeks were historically a white race?” he asks inquisitevly. 

Greekfish obviously misheard him…”A queer race?” he says trying to clarify Fox’s thick Deise blurb.

“No, a white race…historically” says Fox on a diamond wind up…

“Na mate…we’re neither” says Greekfish.

“Mmmm…obviously”… and Fox is off for a p*ss.

Let the speech play begin!!

Todd Brunson just involved in a moped crash, considering his big stack. His KK no good against two all ins in the same bout…AQ & JJ.

J on the flop sealed it for a treble up for______ which I’m sure one of the lads will fill you in on shortly…

Has anybody seen EPT Godfather, John Duthie? Its reported that he has seemingly disappeared after being massaged away for the last hour and a half! He dwindled to approx 2ft 4in before completely disappearing… 

Any sightings, please report to the checkout.
