First Ever Ladies Event at Irish Poker Open

The Paddy Power Poker 2008 Irish Poker Open will likely follow suit with previous years, which means that participants can expect a week long festival of poker, but there will be something new; for the first time since the event started in 1981, the Irish Poker Open will host a Ladies Event!

That's right, ladies, here is your chance to partake in the Irish Poker goodness without having a table full of men alternately bullying and underestimating you. Just you and a table full of women (who will likely alternate between bullying and underestimating you.)

The inaugural Irish Open Ladies event will see cards fly on Good Friday. The event will be €330 no limit hold'em freezeout. Head of Poker over at Paddy Power Poker, Nikki Newman, is thrilled to offer this event this year, citing inspiration from Irish women players such as Colette Doherty, Irene Tier and Jenny Heggerty.

There are a few other side games going on in addition to the €3 million garanteed main event, inclidng a "scalp" game where players can collect bounties and cash in on them at the end of the game. (Editor's Note: More on that tomorrow.) If you want to save some euros and still play in the 2008 Irish Poker Open, head over to the Paddy Power site to partake in the super satellites running now.

Paddy Power Poker offers a whopping 150% sign-up bonus on your first deposit up to $600 and all you have to do is download the FREE poker software and use the PaddyPower promotion code: PPP600. Satisfy your poker needs with millions of dollars up for grabs in guarantees every month.
