The second out of eight days of the longest-running live poker tournament in Europe will be a busy one at the Royal Dublin Society in the city center of Dublin. It’s once again time for local poker pros and visitors from all over the world to showcase their talents at the tables while enjoying the Irish craic and having a pint or two.
That’s what the annual Irish Open is about and the latest edition is no different based on the inaugural day of the series. A total of seven different tournaments take place today (March 26, 2024), with the €350 Heads-Up Championship kicking off the shenanigans at noon local time. This event is well and truly sold out! Four rounds are scheduled all the way to the quarter final stage but no trophy will be awarded yet, as the semi-final and grand finale are scheduled for the tomorrow. Michael Kane won last year’s Heads-Up Championship after beating Austria’s Alex Moser heads-up.
The Hendon Mob Championship (THMC) & €5k Luxon Pay High Roller
There will be just one trophy awarded today with the one-day Event #6 €250 “THMC” The Hendon Mob Championship starting at 2pm local time. Two Milestone satellites for the €5,000 Luxon Pay High Roller are also part of the schedule at 4pm and 8pm respectively, while Day 1 of the target event kicks off in the evening as well.
