The main highlight is easily the Irish Poker Tour London Main Event which comes with a £300 entry fee. For that affordable buy-in, UK players will be competing for £100,000 in guaranteed prize money. The tournament features four Day 1s, and players kick off the action with 30,000 chips played to 30-minute levels, with a big blind ante in play on the third level. This structure applies to the first three starting flights, with Day 1D adopting a turbo structure with 15-minute levels.
Players surviving the 16th level of each Day 1 will advance to Day 2 on May 28 and will battle it out until a final table is reached. The finalists play down to a winner on May 29.
Satellites for the £300 Main Event and the £750 High Roller have also been sprinkled throughout the schedule giving players the opportunity to qualify for these events for as low as £50.
