The Irish Poker Tour has announced a first-ever stop in Glasgow, Scotland starting Monday, March 3, and running through to Sunday, March 9. The Glasgow Poker Festival – taking place at the Alea Casino – boasts a total festival guarantee of £270,000 and an action-packed schedule of events.
As the first Irish Poker Tour foray into the country of Scotland, the Glasgow Poker Festival represents a new frontier for the organizer.
The Irish Poker Tour takes its offerings to Glasgow, Scotland this March. Seven starting flights
The centerpiece of the event schedule is the £200,000 GTD Main Event which kicks off Wednesday, March 5 with the first of seven starting flights available. With so many starting flights to choose from, players who want to dive into the side events can still plan around the Main Event with ease.
The £400 buy-in for the Main Event keeps the price point well within the range of most players' bankroll, but if you're looking to get into the action on the cheap, there are options. Main Event satellites will run in the days leading up to Day 1A – and throughout the course of the remaining starting flights – to ensure that all players have a shot at taking home the big one.
