Feast Your Eyes On The 2022 Irish Open’s Bustling Schedule

The Irish Open returns to a live poker setting for the first time since 2019 and the schedule looks incredible. Forty-two tournaments take place at the recently refurbished Citywest Hotel Dublin between April 11-18 that have buy-ins ranging from €100 up to €5,000.

It was 2019 that the Irish Open last took place in a live setting. Weijie Zhang secured the Main Event title that year, outlasting 1,806 opponents to get his hands on an impressive €300,000.

COVID-19-related restrictions put paid to plans for an Irish Open in both 2020 and 2021, but partypoker came to the rescue and created the Irish Open’s first online editions. It is fair to say they were both roaring successes, especially for Pablo Brito Silva and Pavlo Veksler who triumphed in the 2020 and 2021 Main Events for scores of €462,099 and €265,999, respectively.

Win Your Way To The 2022 Irish Open Main Event

Excitement for the 2022 Irish Open Main Event is building with thousands of poker players preparing to part company with €1,150 for the chance to become its champion. It features four Day 1s, including one with a turbo-structure, and runs from April 13 to April 18.

Day 1B – Thursday 14 April at 12:00 GMT

Do not worry if €1,150 is outside the constraints of your bankroll because it is possible to win your 2022 Irish Open Main Event seat for a fraction of its cost online at partypoker.

Centrolls cost a mere €0.01 award tickets to the €4.40 buy-in Phase 1 tournaments. Make it through one of these to take your seat in the €22 buy-in Phase 2. Progress to the €109 final from here and you will be playing for the chance to win one of at least ten €1,150 Irish Open Main Event seats.

You can buy into any phase you wish, including the €109 final. Those finals shuffle up and deal at 21:00 GMT on Sundays.
