Friday, 19 October 2012

The Irish Winter Festival is just a week away and if you're not lucky to be involved in the action in Dublin you can still get a sweat courtesy of paddypower.com which has opened a Main Event betting market.

The Irish bookie has recent EPT Main Event finalists Mick Graydon and Jason Tompkins as the favourites at 66/1. Former Irish Open and Irish Winter Festival main event finalist Thomas Finneran and Mr Consistency Dara O'Kearney follow at 80/1.


"Heading the Irish Winter Festival main event betting market this year are two of Ireland's bright young hopes, both of whom have proven themselves at the top level this year,” said a spokesman for paddypower.com. "However anyone who plays in the event can get a price on themselves so their family and friends can have a little flutter. We've been taken to the cleaners in this poker market more than once!"


There's still time to bag a place in the €1,125 buy-in event with 32 seats still to be given away in paddypowerpoker.com's Last Chance Saloon.
