Just over 12 months ago, Otto Richard took down the largest ever Winamax Poker Open Dublin Main Event in history, taking home €92,000 after topping a field of 1,069 players.

This year that record could yet be extended as organisers have added another starting flight and switched to the popular big blind ante format.

The festival as a whole features a total of 40 events, with buy-ins ranging from €10 to the €1,500 High Roller, which concludes today. Each event comes with the fun, relaxed atmosphere that is synonymous with the WPO.

However, all eyes from now on will be on the Main Event, which starts today with Day 1a.

This year's Main Event comes with a €550 buy-in and players will receive 50,000 chips. There will be 20 levels on Day 1, with each level 30-minutes in length. Late registration is open for 15 levels. There will be breaks every four levels/two hours, and the third break of the day will be a 60-minute dinner break.

Players are allowed one re-entry per day, meaning players are allowed up to six re-entries over the three starting flights.

On Day 2 the levels will increase to 35 minutes, and on the final day the levels will be 40 minutes long.
