Paddy Power Poker, a leading online casinos poker site, will host one of the biggest poker bashes this year. The online casinos site, in association with Merrion Casino Club and Liam Flood, will host the 25th Irish Open poker tournament to be held in Jurys Ballsbridge Hotel, Dublin from the 14th-17th of April, 2006.
'It's not often the man on the street gets a chance to put his money where his mouth is against the best in the world, especially not when there's a million Euro up for grabs. It'll be a nice little Easter nest egg for somebody, and I for one can't wait to watch the best of the best put each other to the sword,' said a spokesman for the online casinos operator. The main event has a Euro1 million grand prize guaranteed and Euro 50,000 added by the online casinos site, Paddy Power Poker. The final table will play down to the winner on Monday, April 17th, 2006.
For just Euro 10, online casinos players can qualify on Paddy Power Poker. The online casinos qualifier who places highest in the Irish Open will also be sent to the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas thanks to a package worth $12,500. Satellites will also be held in card clubs and casinos throughout Britain, Ireland and Europe. So for those of you poker fans who want to give this tournament a try, good luck!
