Ireland versus Great Britain in charity poker challenge
Ireland and Great Britain will resume traditional hostilities next month when the two countries compete in the International Charity Heads-Up Council tournament.
22 players (11 from each side) will head-off over four different games in an attempt to determine which country produces the greatest poker players. Proceeds will go to Poker 4 Charity and One Percent Pledge.
The games of choice are No-Limit Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha, Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo and Pot Limit Seven-Card Stud.
Captaining Great Britain will be James Dempsey, who won £1,100 for Poker $ Charity with his first place finish in an event in April this year. His Irish counterpart is Mike Lacey.
The tournament takes place on July 8th at the Fitzwilliam card club in Dublin.
