Dublin, Ireland – The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as Day 1 of the €5,000 PLO High Roller Mystery Bounty gets underway at the historic Irish Open. This brand new event is a favourite among four-card aficionados, this high-stakes event combines elite-level Pot-Limit Omaha with one of the most thrilling formats in modern poker, promising fast-paced action, dramatic swings, and serious money on the line.
At the heart of the excitement is the mystery bounty element. For each player eliminated, the one delivering the knockout receives a ticket to draw from a pool of sealed envelopes – each containing a bounty prize of varying value. While some envelopes hold modest amounts, others contain headline-making payouts, including one or more five-figure prizes. It’s a format that blends strategy with chance, encouraging bold plays and wild swings in pursuit of a life-changing pull. Players aren’t just gunning for the final table – they’re also chasing those elusive golden envelopes, making every all-in a potential game-changer.
Today’s field is expected to feature a strong mix of international high rollers, online crushers, and Ireland’s own PLO specialists, all vying for a share of the prize pool and the prestige that comes with capturing one of the Irish Open’s most exciting titles. With deep stacks, big pots, and the added incentive of mystery bounties fueling aggressive play, Day 1 is sure to deliver fireworks from the first deal.
Players start with a 50,000 starting stack, with 40-minute levels in play. Play will conclude in Day 1 after 13 levels, or when the money is made, with 15% of the field due to cash. Bounties will be in play once the tournament reaches the money.
As the cards hit the felt and the envelopes wait to be cracked open, one thing is certain: someone’s gamble will pay off in spectacular fashion. Welcome to the PLO High Roller Mystery Bounty – where risk meets reward, and every hand could make history.
