European Deepstack Poker Championship 2011. Feb 1st-6th - Ballsbridge Inn, Dublin

[Luckyblind]

The European Deepstack Poker Championship is back in Dublin for the 4th time and the 2011 event looks to be one the best poker events of the year. In 2010 the event sold out a whole month in advance and already the 2011 event looks like it could do the same with nearly 200 places already reserved before the official launch of the tournament!

The Ballsbridge Inn is set to be the epicentre of European poker between 1st & 6th February 2011. Capacity has been increased to 1000 players with two start days. The extra number of players mean that there will now be four actual days of play to make sure we get through the field which means we have been able to make the structure even better than before. As in 2010 the final day will have 90 minute levels.

The entry fee is the same at €550 and D4 Events has a great rate of €59 per room per night for the Ballsbridge Inn. If you want to reserve your place in the tournament please go to the registration page on the official website and fill in the registration form. We can take care of your hotel booking also. Please note there is a booking form for both individuals and groups. Seats are only guaranteed if paid for in advance by bank transfer as is the special room rate. Should you win a seat after buying in directly we will give you a full refund for the extra seat at the event.

The great side event schedule has been kept. The €300 event which has a 20,000 chip starting stack and 40 min clock sold out with 294 players last year and the €200 event with 10,000 chips and a one hour clock sold out with 200 players! Advance registration is open for these events also by full payment in advance. If you are still in another event you will of course be given the option of a refund or to multi-table. Registration for these events is by email only.

Online satellites have already started and more will be announced soon.
