IBA Ireland Phoker Rally

[essjay]

Just thought I would post this in here for anyone that is interested.

Similar to the Photo Rally except for each location you photograph you get a playing card dealt at random. Must visit a minimum of 5 locations to get your 5 cards for your poker hand. If you visit all 10 locations you can exchange up to two of your cards.

Winner is the person with the best poker hand.

No need to be a member of the IBA to enter. Just a bit of crack and it's free. Sure if you are out doing the Photo Rally, you might as well collect these ones also.

Nice one Essjay. Like Bogman I will probably try to get some or maybe all of these too.

Have the map marked....

Red = Irish Photo Rally
Yellow = Phoker Rally (can't see the yellow too good so might get some blue stickers)
Black line = IBA Circuit of Ireland route. 874 miles in 24 hours or under (look here if interested http://ibaireland.org/CircuitofIreland.aspx)

Thankfully the Photo and Phoker Rallies Kerry locations are within a mile or two of each other. It's a long drive down there!

They are close as the crow flies but there is a mountain between then & the road loops around that mountain quiet a bit.

It's not a long drive down here - it's a long drive up to Dublin

Going to be enjoyable getting to all these locations, ive seen parts of this country in the last 3 years ive never been to before

Just be careful unlike me that your photo entries contains ur mugshot.
First card

Glad they allow just one error

I made a start on this today, lovely afternoon for a spin!

Could this be made a "sticky"? It might encourage a few more people to have a go.

Hi,

Can someone tell me if this is a good hand as I am not a poker player. If it is not then I might have to visit the remaining 4 sites when I am over in August.

Great roads to get the photos and I had the weather for it as well.
