With a guaranteed prize pool of at least 3 million Euros, the payouts at this event make it the richest in all of Europe. This tournament can accommodate up to 1,000 players, making competition very stiff. The event will be televised live, throughout Europe.
If any player can handle the talent already on tap for the Irish Open, it is the United States' own legend, Doyle Brunson. Poker's cowboy looks to win over the European players with his trademark hat and mastery of the game. With over $5 million in lifetime tournament winnings, and countless millions in cash game winnings under his belt, coupled with an impressive 10 World Series of Poker bracelets, Brunson is sure to make the competition sit up and take notes.
