Following its first stop in London, the PokerStars UK and Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT) continues Season 5 with a stop at Dusk Till Dawn Casino in Nottingham from April 12th-19th. The tour will then set sail across The Channel in June for a week in the sun at the PokerStars Marbella Festival before it heads back to the nation’s top poker destinations; hitting Bristol, Isle of Man and Edinburgh.
UKIPT Nottingham will feature the huge £1,000,000 Main Event with a £1000 + £100 buy-in (single re-entry per day available) as well as a host of side events including the Nottingham Cup (£300+£30 buy-in) and UKIPT High Roller (£3000+£300 buy-in). There will be four start days, including Day 1A on Sunday 12th April, and the potential to re-enter should lady luck desert players the first time of asking.
The tour welcomes some of the biggest names in poker such as Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody, who will be facing down the best Nottingham has to offer, and aiming to better his two previous final-table finishes.
After the summer holiday in Marbella, the UKIPT returns to British soil with a stop in Bristol from August 6th-9th before embarking on a short journey to the Isle of Man in October (1st-4th). It then heads over to the capital of Scotland to close season 5 for 2015 with four days in Edinburgh from November 19th-22nd . The ultimate stop for the season will then take place in early 2016 and is yet to be confirmed.
