Poker here in Ireland = Sweeeeeet [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
no taxes, perfectly legal. pretty popular and becoming increasingly more so. its on tv every night on about 5 different channels. casinos springing up left and right.
you have nothing to worry about. just try and get while the getting is good.

EDIT: for more info on poker in Ireland check out http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=416 its pretty good. obviously nowhere near as big as 2+2 but good nonetheless.

i haven't read leg or the zoo for a few days. what are the chances we're never seeing the money? and what are the chances we're getting it before 2007 is over?

from what I can gather, its still 95%+ likely we'll get out money. i think people have researched Netller's financials and they have the cash; however alot of it is tied up in bonds, [censored] like that. however, it could be 6+ months until we see it (or maybe as little as 2 months; neteller isnt being very open right now.)

i absolutely cannot win at 3/6.

which would bother me more except i cant seem to lose at 5/10.

[/ QUOTE ]

just looked it up.

15k hands at 3/6: 22/17, W$SD 52%, -3PTBB/100
18k hands 5/10: 24/18, W$SD 53%, +9PTBB/100

i think 5/10 is just a bit looser because i play more SH there. not really looking for an explanation, its just odd.

[/ QUOTE ]

since 1/1


[/ QUOTE ]

yeah that's pretty sweet. too tight to be the next cts tho [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[luckychewy]

haha that's true. i also though for some reason it said since 2/1 so that would be a sick number of hands(hence the cts comment). either way it's still a really nice wr.
