The International Poker Open (IPO) returns to the Regency Hotel Events Centre this week, the first time it has dropped anchor in the Irish capital since it partnered with online poker giant, Full Tilt.
There are more than 10 events scheduled across six days, with the highlight of those tournaments being the $250 IPO Dublin Main Event where players sit down with a generous helping of 30,000 chips and play to a superb structure featuring 40-minute levels.
Over 920 players have attended the five IPO stops since Full Tilt began its sponsorship, and if the 2014 IPO Dublin Main Event is being used as a benchmark, that impressive figure could more than double.
