It's that time of year again! D4 Event's legendary European Deepstack Poker Championships are back in Dublin next February…. and it's going to be awesome! This is a relaxed, fun filled, poker festival for players of all abilities and the atmosphere is like nothing else!
The European Deepstack Poker Championship 2011 was a huge success. Player numbers were up from 465 in 2010 to a whopping 737 in 2011. Even the side events were bigger. 370 players competed in the 300 side event compared to 293 last year.
The 2012 festival has some great new additions to the schedule. Firstly the main event will be a Re-Entry event, meaning if you bust out on Day 1A, you can re-register and play Day 1B! Secondly there will be a €2500 High-Roller event starting on the Tuesday night. This will follow the same structure as the main event. Also for Omaha fans there is now a €550 Deepstack Omaha tournament on the Saturday. This will be a triple chance tournament with players getting 3 lots of 10,000 chips which can be taken at any time during the first 4 levels. It will have a generous 45 min clock.
Every day during the 2012 event there will be live streaming from a feature table from the High-Roller and the Main Event.
The Ballsbridge Inn is handily place on the Aircoach route for easy airport access. It has an onsite Cinema, Deli, Bars & Shop. The 24hr Coffee dock Bistro has also now opened making a great poker venue with hot food & drinks available almost all the time.
