Irish Winter Poker Festival Returns

The Burlington Hotel in Dublin will play host to the PaddyPowerPoker.com Irish Winter Festival this year from Oct. 28 to 31.

A schedule of side events is yet to be released but for now players can look forward to a main event with a slightly decreased buy-in of €1,000 + €100 and featuring a €20,000 Sole Survivor promotion. Another incentive to qualify for the popular event at PaddyPowerPoker.com is all players who do so before Sept. 1 will receive a free €100 sports bet with PaddyPower.com.

Super satellites begin at the site on Jun. 12 with a €150 + €12 no-limit hold’em freezeout at 8 p.m. guaranteeing three packages. This satellite will be held every Sunday. Following this, each Monday at 8 p.m., is a €20 + €2 no-limit hold’em event with rebuys/add-on and one seat on offer. Feeders for these satellites will kick off on Jun. 5 and run daily.

Paddy Power, Communications Manager for the site, said, “Last year the Irish Winter Festival was such a success with the likes of Dennis Taylor and Eric Bristow entertaining the crowds, the introduction of the Blind Man’s Bluff World Championship, and the creation of the World’s largest chip stack which took 3 full days to build and stood at 3 meters tall. No wonder people are looking forward to the IWF 2011 already and we know it won’t disappoint!”
