2024 Irish Open

Excitement is building for the 2024 edition of the long-running Irish Open. Thousands of poker players of all skill levels are planning to descend on Dublin for the €1 million guaranteed Irish Open Main Event. For some of those players, the €1,150 buy-in for the 2024 Irish Open Main Event is the only stumbling block, but that need not be the case, thanks to Paddy Power Poker.

Paddy Power Poker is pulling out all of the stops to ensure the Irish Open Main Event's €1 million guarantee gets blown out of the water. In addition, the Irish online poker site wants as many of its players to experience the joy and thrill of competing in Europe's longest-running poker tournament. This is why, on December 3 at 8:00 p.m. GMT, there is an Irish Open satellite with 10x €1,150 seats guaranteed.

Irish Open satellite players begin their quest for a €1,150 seat with a 10,000 starting stack. They play to a 10-minute clock where the blinds start at 40/80/8a, with late registration open for the first 12 levels. Only two re-entries are permitted to prevent those with bottomless bankrolls from having a distinct advantage over the rest of the field, so this could be your best chance of making your way to Dublin in March for the 2024 Irish Open Main Event.

Don't worry if the satellite's €100 buy-in would dent your bankroll too much because there are three €10 buy-in feeder satellites running daily at 9:00 p.m., 10:00 p.m., and 11:00 p.m. GMT. Each guarantees at least one €100 Irish Open satellite ticket.

Guess what? You can play your way into those €10 feeder satellites for as little as a single cent! The €11,500 guarantee on the December 3 Irish Open satellite is the biggest guaranteed satellite Paddy Power has ever run pre-Christmas, despite now being a naturally quiet time in the online poker world. Make the most of it and get involved in these value-packed Irish Open satellites.

2024 Irish Open Schedule

Should you be successful in your quest of nabbing a €1,150 Irish Open seat, you'll have to make your own way to the Royal Dublin Society in Ballsbridge, Dublin, in time for the 2024 Irish Open Main Event.

The €1 million guaranteed tournament features four flights running between March 27-29, with the eventual champion crowned sometime on April 1.

Of course, it is not only the Main Event that has caught the attention of the poker community because the entire 2024 Irish Open schedule is crammed to the brim with incredible tournaments.

Events come in all shapes, sizes, and buy-in levels; there is an Irish Open tournament for everyone. The €200 buy-in Mini Irish Open is a new addition to this year's schedule, and it should be a massive success, not least because of its ambitious €500,000 guaranteed prize pool.
