The guys at Intertops are generally really quick at getting access to the players lists from EPT Tournaments, but maybe because the Irish Open doesn't have the EPT prefix, or perhaps because it is just a 2 day tourney, we are having difficulty obtaining enough player information to make a proper book on the event. Rest assured, however, that Intertops.com will be offering odds for the European Poker Classics at The Grosvenor Victoria the following weekend, along with some interesting Special Bets with a "Blonde" theme :o Regards, Mike ps Nice performance in Monte Carlo, Ben :) Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: luckyblind on March 23, 2005, 05:23:47 PM Paddy Power are giving odds funnily enough. Looks to be some value bets there. Tikay is 100:1, Thewy is 50:1 Blondie and Willie Tann 33:1.

Foxy Boy at 100/1 too !!!! Quick...Where did I hide my Switch Card? Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: elblondie on March 23, 2005, 05:53:23 PM Wow - and Carlo doesn't even get a quote !
He is even more desperate to play than you can imagine. Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: ariston on March 23, 2005, 07:51:45 PM I can see at least one major ommision to the paddy power list- isabelle "no mercy" mercier is on her way over so everyone else is playing for 2nd the form shes in.
ariston Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: le plonquer on March 23, 2005, 08:08:26 PM Just looked at Paddy Power prices.DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
57 players priced at abook of 91% projected field 200 no price for the field PP have up to 150 players runningfor them at 10/1 many very good players not priced up WHICH SIDE OF THIS DO YOU WANT? In this modern age of internet gambling and betting exchanges this is a step back to the days of bumpers being priced at 175%.The bookies there had to deal with a number of non triersbut I can assure you that every runner in the poker will be trying 100%. Come on PP you can do better than that! Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: le plonquer on March 23, 2005, 09:27:06 PM CORRECTION To previous post due to false info
ITS WORSE!!!!!!!! 90 runners quoted 135% book nice profit! + the rest of the field running for FREE Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: tikay on March 24, 2005, 01:56:24 AM Well blonde will have a full team there doing Live Updates, & playing too. So as long as I am still in the comp, Rhow will be in charge of the Updates, & me & Dave will be passing her notes. My notes will explain in great detail some of my breathtaking plays, at least until I get KO'd - I aim to last at least the first level.....
No price for Carlo in the betting? Carlo who? Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: ariston on March 24, 2005, 02:04:41 AM Good luck in Ireland mate, wish I could make it but its my weekend to have my little lad and he is the only thing I put before poker. Hope you get rid of the flu before you get there.

Title: Re: Irish Open Post by: Mrs C on March 25, 2005, 05:53:51 PM Oops - you must be his Mum then.....! Course I know who Carlo is, & we are all pleased as punch to see him back amongst us. Truly. He sat down yesterday for his very first live game for a year, & everyone was delighted to see him. He's on the button first hand, 5 limpers, he goes all-in with AK, & gets called in a FLASH by a geezer with Q-9, who hits. Exit Carlo. Welcome back Carlo! |
