Table Of Contents
The PokerStars UK & Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT) will visit the Hippodrome Casino in the heart of the British capital from August 2 to 11 for the 2024 UKIPT London festival. Anyone heading to PokerStars at the Hippodrome is in for a treat because the bustling schedule has something for everyone.
The £1,100 buy-in UKIPT London Main Event is the tournament everyone heading to the Hippodrome wats to win. This year's Main Event feature four flights, the first of which shuffles up and deals at 1:00 p.m. on August 4. Flight B starts at the slightly later time of 2:00 p.m. on August 5, with the third and fourth flights kicking off at 12:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. on August 6.

Power Passes and More to be Won in the Ambassador Meet-Up
The Main Event aside, the one tournament you must try to make it to is the £220 No-Limit Hold'em Bounty Ambassador Meet-Up at 8:00 p.m. on August 6. You can win £100 cash for each opponent you send to the rail, but special prizes await anyone who eliminates a PokerStars Ambassador. What's more, every player who players the Ambassador Meet Up that has linked their PS Live card to their online PokerStars account will receive a $109 Sunday Million ticket.
The likes of Lex Veldhuis, Sam Grafton, Barny Boatman, Joe "Stapes" Stapleton, James Hartigan, Adam McKola, Rory Jennings, Georgina "GJ Reggie" James, Nick Walsh, and Kerryjane Craigie are expected to feature, and do so with an additional bounty on their head.
Two ambassadors will have a $2,500 Silver Pass on their head with the others having a $109 Power Path Bronze Path as their bounty. Oh, and the eventual winner of this event receives a UKIPT Nottingham Main Event seat on top of any cash or other bounties they collect along the way!
