UK and Ireland’s Live Poker Tournaments in February
This was published 04-02-2017Live poker tournament action is due to take place all over the United Kingdom and Ireland during this month and players will, therefore, have an opportunity to choose exactly where they would like to head.
The opening leg of the 2017 Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) is scheduled to kick off the month at the Poker Room that was formerly known as The Vic. The first event of the tour’s 10th season will consist of a number of tournaments with the £200,000 guaranteed Main Event being the highlight of the tour. Later this month the GUKPT will head to Bury New Road in Manchester for the second leg of the 2017 tour.
Three Dusk till Dawn (DTD) 200 tournaments are due to take place between the two GUKPT events. Despite the fact that DTD200 tournaments are new to the UK poker scene, the fact that their £100,000 guarantee has a buy in of a mere £220 has resulted in the tournaments being well received.
Leg 2 of the 2017 Genting Poker Series will take place in Newcastle and promises to be a huge hit with local players as well as those travelling north.
The Grosvenor Maybury Casino in Edinburgh, Scotland, will host the Amateur Poker Association & Tour (APAT) for the Scottish Amateur Poker Championship.
A number of events are scheduled to be held in Ireland this month, which include the Munster Open in Dungarvan, The Big One in Bundoran, The One Day Special at the Green Isle Hotel in Dublin as well as the Grand Prix Cork at the Regency Hotel in Dublin. The 2017 D4 Events Dublin Poker Festival is also due to take place at the Regency Hotel in Dublin from Friday, 10th February to Saturday, 18th February 2017 and those who intend playing poker on Tuesday, 14th February 2017 are reminded that this is Valentine’s Day.
