Calling all fans of Rummikub, the fast paced, numbered tile game - have you got what it takes to be Ireland's Rummikub Champion and represent your country at the World Rummikup Finals in Italy?

Firstly, what is Rummikub?
Rummikub is a fast-paced boardgame of tile manipulation that challenges each player's wit against the other. One of the world's most compulsive family games, like all the best, it's easy to learn and a challenge to master!

The object of the game is to be the first player to go 'Rummikub' by using all the tiles in runs or groups and by accumulating the highest score. Outwit your opponents with cool strategy and sharp moves, using the joker with caution... if he's smiling on your rack at the end of a round, you lose 30 points!

If you are a Rummikub player and fancy taking part in the Irish Rummikub finals in Smyths Toys Superstores, Blanchardstown, Dublin this Saturday 15th September - then this competition is for you as we have 2 spots up for grabs at the championships this weekend. Not only that, the overall winner at the Irish finals will go on to represent Ireland at the World Rummikub Championships in Italy in November, staying in the luxurious 5 star, San Domenico Palace Hotel in the beautiful city of Taormina in Sicily.

To be in with a chance to win a spot at this weekend's Irish championships, tell us why you think you have what it takes to be Rummikub champion in the comments section below (you can leave comments with your Facebook or uLike account). Competition closes Thursday 13th September.
