BoylePoker International Poker Open 2009

[Ironside]

Hi Guys,

I work for Boylepoker and would like to respond to the posts.

Basically the added chips bonus is there to reward players who spend a bit of time playing with us over the course of August + September.

250 iPoints can easily be run up in 2 hours of cash games or through Sngs.

The iPoints will also help you clear any first deposit bonus ($5 for every 250iPoints) and you can use them for our freerolls.

If you have any questions I will happily answer them.

The deposit bonus could be tempting but I already made my first deposit for last year's IPO and that bonus has expired.

Is there a reload bonus available for returning customers?

I cant send PMs yet Ill drop you a mail on Wednesday

you can send pms after 10 posts which you have now reached

I am still unimpressed messing with the starting stack size for people who pay the same entrance fee sets a very poor precedence and I think it will adversely affect the number of entries that you will get.

Hi, we are already off to a flying start with registrations. Last year on day 1 of promotion we had one player registered. Yesterday, after a few hours, we had ten players regsitered. I expect this event to be full within the next four to six weeks and possibly sooner than that. When you think about it that is pretty amazing for a tournament that takes place in Ocotber.

The first and foremost thing we want to do here is make sure that every single player has a fantastic time and experiences the best tournament they've ever taken part in...Secondly Boylepoker.com, knowing that the demand is there for well over the 1,300 players that we achieved last year, want to give players an incentive to try out their site (and they're only asking you to try it out a very little bit) in return for investing their time, effort and money into this festival.

This offer is specifically designed to make it just the right amount of chips where it's fairly easy to obtain on Boylepoker and enough to justify putting the effort in...But on the other hand its not enough to make it stupidly unfair to anyone who doesn't play a bit.

I definitely hope to see you there Geezer but if you choose not to play because of this we won't have trouble filling your seat

Cheers,

Any news on what the side events will be yet?

Ciaran/Stephen,

Before i book flights, hotel etc can you please confirm that day 1a of the IPO is Friday 16th October and Day 1b is Saturday 17th October as per the Poker Ireland website (http://www.pokerireland.ie/index.php/tournaments/tournament_entry/boyl/). The closing date for entries on the Boyles poker room is saying that day1a reg closes/tourney starts on the 15th and day 1b reg closes/tourney starts on the 16th, although i assume this is just because reg for each day closes 24 hrs before each flight starts.

Many thanks,

Nick

Day 1a is Friday the 16th Day 1b is Saturday 17th.

We have to close it off online a bit earlier as it leaves it easier for admin reasons such as the seating draw etc.

If the regency does have a larry lobster then i will stop their, otherwise probably prefer to be closer to town.
