Cheeky arris!!

I"d also point out Mark Donnelly to people who complain that they haven"t been able to get a seat in any of the tournaments.  I"ve always maintained that if you want to play in any of the live events you can.  Mark didn"t have a seat for Ireland.  So he travelled over without one, got to the card room early and got onto the reserve list for the day, and took up the inevitable places left empty by those dropping out.  Again, he showed that he"s rightfully at the top of the leader-board by reaching the points (and nearly reaching his 3rd final table).

Where there"s a will, there"s a way.  Lee Mulligan did the same in Scotland (not reaching the points - but turning up in the morning to get in on the day).

Shouldn"t really make this known as more and more people in future will be trying this. Me and the wife both travelled over to Dublin without a seat in the tourney, we arrived early put our names on the reserve list and managed to get in.

Just to manage expectations at future events though.....there were those who did not manage to get into the tournament!

Yes to be honest there were was quite a long reserve list and a lot of people were disappointed. We were very lucky on this occasion and I wouldn"t like to raise peoples hopes. We took a gamble and it paid off but we only just got in.

Who were you then?  I thought it was a pretty good table - decent play but good friendly banter.  Wouldn"t want it any other way (except maybe full of fish!!).

I thoroughly enjoyed playing on that table, only inches from the finishing line to get to the last 20 as well...never mind.  Roll on the next one!
