Probably not 100% helpful but no other Megastack has had one. There are qualifiers on Stars.

€89 / night however Dublin Airport Hotels are a different ball game .

Can we get a poll going for online day 1s and button antes please?

More day 1s/bigger prizepool/more rake/more hands per hour

Hi Guys,
What's the situation with winning second tickets online, I know PokerStars can sometimes stop players from even playing further satellites if they already have a ticket. Can we play for multiple tickets and will they be transferable or redeemable for trny dollars?
Thanks


Edit:

Ah i've got my answer

"You have won a single entry, you may win more than one Main Event seat however you cannot use them to re-enter, you will receive the second seat value as a T€ credit to your PokerStars account."

Yeah there was no issue with this for the last one - 2nd + tickets won all get credited in T$

[moekis]

Lot of confusion last night on start time of game as a lot of players (& all the dealers) turned up for a 7 pm start BUT it actually started at 7.30 pm because that is what was stated on the Irish Poker Series Website

[Thepebble]

H
Can I change sterling at the cage and if so, what’s the rate?

Cheers
