UK & Ireland PokerNews Round-Up: Busy Live Scene, Pokerfest Begins & More

Despite the fact that the 2015 World Series of Poker Europe is in full swing over in Berlin, Germany, the UK & Ireland live poker circuit has been rather busy this past week.

In London, at PokerStars LIVE at The Hippodrome, a familiar face walked away with a £28,300 first-place prize in the UKIPT Super Series Main Event. Usually you'd find Dale Garrad at live poker events promoting Main Event Travel and helping customers find a bed for the night, but this time he was on the other side of the felt competing in the £550 buy-in event.
