PLEASE READ BELOW:
THANKS TO OLBG, THE WINNER OF THE MONTHLY LEADERBOARD WILL RECEIVE FREE ENTRY INTO THE BIG MONEY TOURNAMENT ON Ladbrokes POKER, THE BUYIN IS WORTH $100 (€60)!
In order to play the OLBG Poker Nights tournaments, you must first be a registered OLBG member, you are not allowed to join the tournaments until you are a registered member of OLBG. Anyone found to be listed as registered for the current tournament without having registered with OLBG first will be removed from the tournament immediately
Distribution of the password to non OLBG members is not allowed and will effect your ability to join future tournaments.
NEW RULE:
In order to encourage posts and also to maintain our league results without relying on one person to do all the work:
Each game's winner MUST post the result which consist of top three players and the winnings paid out to each. The sooner these results are posted the better, so that I can update the table. Right after the game would be best and you're already online so a couple more minutes isnt too much to ask, but in any case within 48 hours max.
If its going to be a problem, then say so on the night and get the runner up to oblige... If I can teach Poohbear to post them, then anyone can!!!
TO ALL 1ST TIME PLAYERS:
I must demand that you post your Ladbrokes Poker screen name on the latest thread in the OLBG Poker Nights Forum before buying into your first tournament. You will be added to list of heroes after your first game.

Another epic game tonight, had just the right swing and melody to it to make it a classic with all the right moves coming together in the right places vwp folks...
With Mrs Fozy taking the champ away for a dirty weekend we all had our chance for the spoils and we also welcomed kev into the fold.. he played a blinder but in the end fate wasnt smiling upon him - better luck next time m8
I managed to tread water long enough with a few ups and downs, but got there in the end when the bubble burst.. barry followed soon after with another solid performance, leaving me and the poohy one..
I was expecting a pushfest but all credit to him the bear was on form and outplayed me many times.. however Vicky has decided its my turn at the rungood and gave me the right cards at the right time
Very well played all esp Pooh & Barry
Burrfoot $17.50
PoohBear $10.50
Zagreb $7
The leaderboard has been updated and Thursdays game is open for business.. have a grand week heroes  _________________ Play poker with us - win the monthly league to get a €60 tournament token at Ladbrokes!

Monday nights Bank Holiday game saw 6 players turn out Quasi was unlucky that he lost his connection but still managed 3rd place for $6. A big chip lead meant it was always going to be tough for my fellow gooner barry and he took 2nd for $9 leaving me in 1st place for $15 Have a great week everyone see you thursday. |

7 runners went to post for the pre grand national tourney
after the usual jockeying for position and unlucky fallers we were left with 3 as they approached the elbow.This is when the contest began in earnest,after leading on the first circuit nooody felt the pressure and showed his true form by crumbling under pressure,sadly he was last seen being carted off to the knackers yard,amid a typhoon of tears and a deluge of broken dreams .Never mind noood someday....... maybe someday........
I was very fortunate on a couple of occasions it seems that vicky had wagered on the quasi and deserted bur as we plodded towards the line I managed to get home by the virtue of having the bigger nose in the photo.
very well played as usual bur
poor performance under strong pressure noooood
anyway to the result 1st quasi
2nd burfoot
3rd Nooooooooooody
not sure bout the cash
all the best everyone and gl on the national
