Originally posted by Flushdraw View PostPoker after Dark has been quite good. Lots of big pots and interesting spots. When playing 5 handed with a double straddle, you're on the button with $3,400 already in the pot so it played a lot bigger than 200/400.
$1m pot towards the end of the Day 3, and not sure if it's possible to play AA much worse than this!

To be fair, I'd say he's culturally racist in the way that auld lad Dublin taxi drivers are. Hence the offence he takes at being called on it - it genuinely doesn't occur to him that his views and attitudes are ignorant and from another era."We are not Europeans.

He's Irish and white ffs.

Was in it at wkend there, had boat trip booked to skelligs and got cancelled 3 times. Moorings was a great place for food and craic, Valentia some spot too, well worth a day or 2.

I'm don't know how I haven't punched somebody today. below are two examples of about 12 different conversations I have had.
Customer : Can you give me a rate from A to B for these 4 pallets
Me : No problem, here you go
Customer : Is that LCL (Groupage service)
Me : yes, it is
Customer : Oh, I need a full container rates
Me : Ok, just to note though, that will be significantly more expensive. LCL is the most efficient way to move this shipment.
Customer : No, it has to be a full container
Me : OK, here is the rates for a full container.
Customer : WTF? These rates are ridcilious, they are way higher than the original quote
Me : ......
Me : Can you give me two rates please, one based on an Air Ride Chassis collection and one based on a non Air Ride Chassis collection
My US Office : so the difference between the two is we do the trucking on one and not the other???
Me : No, we do the trucking on both?
My US Office : So, you want a price to collect one with an Air ride chassis and a price to collect without an air ride chassis
Me : Yes
My US Office : Gotcha!
.
.
My US Office : Just to confirm, that's one with Air Ride and one without Air Ride
Me...

Rough delivery time on 17 pallets collected Monday?
For the cheapest option (and slowest) they'll move them in a 45' container. Best case scenario, you'd get a ship ex Rotterdam Tues/Wed for arrival in Dublin Fri/Sat but it's a tight connection. Worse case, you'd get a vessel ex Rotterdam at the weekend and into Dublin on Mon/Tues for a 7/8 day transit time.
Other two options are road freight which is not my department but am pretty sure if you go with a dedicated truck (most expensive option and half empty if all the pallets are euro pallets), you'd be out of Bonn on a Monday and into Dublin Wednesday, Thursday at the absolute latest.
If going groupage by road, it'll depend how many departures a week they have. Pretty sure we have 3/4 a week but if whoever is carrying it only has one, it'd normally be on a Friday so arrival here wouldn't be until Monday so 7 day transit again.
I have heard a few horror stories though of transit times of 2 and 3 weeks out of Germany which is mental, fair amount of cowboys out there.

All knowing bbv. You are being tasked with getting switchy an AI final ticket. It is going to be absolute carnage for tickets down here with every man and his dog wanting to go.
I thought I was sorted. My parents have a season ticket each and I've been using their +1 allocation for the championship but supposedly the GAA don't do it for the most important and toughest match to get a ticket for
Thanking you in advance. Reward offeredRedbet at the Dublin Poker Invasion FTW

In the whole of Europe is it even 100?Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostVastly more people dying of actual car crashes. 10s of 1000s more probably.
55 million people die every year, what's the big deal, death is a part of life.

John Muldoon telling the host on Off the Ball how a 5 year old Joe Canning was pucking the ball over the bar from 50 yards out. It doesn't sound possible even though he was pretty convincing. It would be great if it was true.

Big Dan Shanahan won the under 12 long puck with an 80 metre puck. He was probably still wearing the hat backwardsRedbet at the Dublin Poker Invasion FTW

Originally posted by The Aul Switcharoo View PostEasily possible. I did some summer camp coaching for the GAA and some of the 5-6 year olds were well able to hit it out of their hand 30-40 yards. Not beyond possibility that some Irish kids can puck it 50 yards at 5.
