    Late last night (and I mean late the game went on ontill 2am,and I was up for work at 05:45) I qualified for the Ladbrokes’ Irish Poker Festival to be held in Irish National Events Center (INEC) Killarney.The prize is worth about 1k with 3 nights at Hotel Gleneagle.Its a ranked event so you get European ranking points for taken part and it has a super structure.

    Has anybody ever been to the Hotel Gleneagle..?If so whats it like and is it close to the INEC..?I have not had time to research this yet.

    Well done mate. Have tried a few satellite's for this event so far with no luck. Its meant to be a great event. I play in the same casino as last years winner Jimmy McSweeney. He won €100k! As far as i know the tournament is held on the same grounds as the Gleneagle hotel.
