Title: UKIPT Cork thread Post by: TightEnd on February 12, 2013, 11:33:03 AM The Rochestown Park Hotel will be the venue for the six-day festival, during which time 12 UKIPT tournaments – including satellites – will take place. The first event begins at 18:00 on Feb. 13.
The tournament that receives the most attention will be the four-day Main Event, which has had its buy-in upped to €770 from the €560 of the previous season. Day 1a of the UKIPT Cork Main Event gets underway on Feb. 14 at 12:00 Last season’s UKIPT Cork Main Event saw 602 players pack into the Rochestown Park Hotel and created a €291,970 prize pool. The largest slice of that money went to the popular pro Sam Razavi, who picked up €71,000 after he defeated David O’Connor heads-up. Should the Main Event receive similar numbers this year, the prize pool will be boosted significantly and we could be talking about a €100,000 first place prize.

Any Blondes playing I'll be doing live updates (I'm the one who looks like Sam Razavi but has approx $950,000 less in tournament earnings), so please if you see me walking around the room say hi, tell me about hands etc. It all helps the blog, which unlike Blonde's isn't interactive, tick over.
