paddypowerpoker.com Irish Winter Festival
The Irish Winter Festival 2009 is scheduled for the October Bank Holiday, with the €1,500 + €150 Irish Masters headlining the festival. The No Limit Hold’em freezeout tournament returns to Citywest Hotel, the scene of Fiachra Meere’s triumph last year and the home of the 2008 and 2009 Irish Open.
Starting on Saturday October 24th and running for three days, the Irish Winter Festival will pit the cream of the Irish poker community versus the best the rest of the world has to offer.
Prepare for the IWF Sole Survivor!
The Sole Survivor qualifier promotion was successfully introduced at the Irish Open 2009 where Marcel Koch won a €100,000 package. Similarly, the paddypowerpoker.com online qualifier that lasts the longest in the Irish Masters main event at the Irish Winter Festival will win a €20,000 package in addition to whatever prize money they win in the tournament.
"The Sole Survivor promotion really spiced up this year’s Irish Open", said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for paddypowerpoker.com. "We are thrilled to launch the IWF Sole Survivor and put up €20,000 for our players to chase. It’s never too early to grab your seat and stake your claim as our next Sole Survivor!"
Weekly super satellites ($200 + $15 freezeouts) to the Irish Masters start online at paddypowerpoker.com on Sunday May 17th, with a variety of feeders running daily.
