Hot poker action when its cool outside...

Paddy Power Poker is proud to announce its sponsorship of the Irish Winter Festival 2008, which is scheduled for the October Bank Holiday weekend (October 25th-27th) in Dublin, Ireland. The festival, taking place in the Citywest Hotel & Golf Resort, is highlighted by the €1,500 + €150 Irish Masters, with an estimated prize pool of €1,000,000!

Daily satellites will take place @ 2pm and 8pm giving you the chance to qualify for our weekly Irish Masters super satellite starting Sunday April 14th @ 22:00. With $3,500 packages up for grabs every Sunday you'd be mad not to give it a go! For more information check out Irish Winter Festival.
