Wayne's World Set for More Poker After PokerStars Festival Dublin Main Event

After running into the nuts of Dermot Blain, Wayne Bridge got pocket sevens in against the pocket queens of Sean Prendiville to bust. We caught up with him after his elimination to ask him how his tournament went.

"I've loved it to be honest," said Bridge, "But I definitely need some lessons.

"I've just been playing with my mates; entered a few tournaments. But the players I was playing with today I thought were brilliant."

Bridge was up against the likes of Irish regular Dermot Blain, PokerStars Team Online's Fintan Hand and WSOP Ladies Event runner-up Deborah Worley-Roberts, with whom Bridge had running battles.

"The table was good fun; Deborah [Worley-Roberts] really tore me a new one! She was coming up with all these nicknames for me - 'Doggy Style' and 'River Rat'.

"I hit two pair on the river, so I was 'River Rat' from then on!"

After his experience here in Dublin, Bridge vowed to put some time in off the felt to get better.

"I think I just need to play more; I wanna take out more time to play than what I have been doing. Just for practice.

"I can see that the standard of players I was coming up against today was really good. When the flop comes down, just after that I felt like I was getting bullied.

"I think I'll get some lessons!"
