Last year’s International Poker Open event in Dublin took place at the Bonnington Hotel in Dublin, the capital of Ireland. However, with many hotspots in Europe on Lockdown – mainland Ireland currently among them – on lockdown or experiencing restrictions that severely hamper the viability of a live poker tournament, the IPO Dublin has been forced online.
Thankfully for all concerned, the IPO is heading to Unibet Poker, frequent sponsor of the event and one of the most popular player-friendly poker sites, with everyone at Unibet creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for their poker festivals whether that’s happening live or online.
The IPO Dublin Main will take place between the 19th and 26th of this month, and hopes will be high that the event emulates some of the success it enjoyed last year.
In 2019, Luke Boynton won the Main Event, scooping up the top prize of €24,450 after a pretty incredible six-handed deal saw all of the top half-dozen players bank a five-figure sum. Sucked to be 7th placed Shawn Morales, of course, but that’s deals for you.
