Do Not Consider Missing the Road to Killarney Irish Poker Festival

One of the absolute highlights of this poker year is the return of big-time poker to the iconic Gleneagle INEC Arena in Killarney from September 29^th till October 2^nd. Some of the most memorable events in Irish Poker history have taken place in these luxurious and beautiful surroundings and the Irish Poker Festival is certain to add a few more riotous pages to that colourful story.

The Festival opens fast at 2pm on the 29^th with the Paddy Power Poker Mystery Bounty tournament. In this event, rather than winning a set bounty when knocking out an opponent, players who knock someone out on Day 2 win a ‘mystery’ bounty which can be anything from €400 to €5,000. This relatively new concept is taking off around the poker world and is proving to be massively popular. Paddy Power Poker is adding many extra prizes making this a must-play.

Each flight is a freezeout though players can enter multiple flights. Day 2 starts on Sunday at midday and will play out to a finish.
