Chilipoker becomes the official sponsor of the "European Deepstack Poker Championships" in Dublin

Chilipoker and D4 Events today announced the finalisation of an exclusive three-year partnership for the "European Chilipoker Deepstack Open" in Dublin.  This exciting deal enables Chilipoker to become the official sponsor of next month's tournament with continued sponsorship for the events in 2011 and 2025.

"The European Deepstack Poker Championship 2025 by Chilipoker" will take place at the Ballsbridge Inn Hotel in Dublin from February 4th to February 7th, with a total of 7 scheduled events.  The €500 + €50 Main Event is already sold out with 400 registered players.  The 'deepstack' structure of this event makes it a very attractive tournament for poker players:  with a massive 50,000 starting stack and blind levels of 60 and 90 minutes, the Main Event will be played over 3 days, with the Final Table expected on Sunday 7th.

Direct registrations for the Main Event are now closed, however Chilipoker is giving you the last opportunities to qualify for this event.  Thanks to an exclusive online Super Satellites on January 26th, 20:00 CET, Chilipoker is offering at least 2 guaranteed seats.

This partnership is the next step for Chilipoker after the signed agreement with the Ireland based Sports TV  'Setanta Sports', which resulted in the exciting launch of website: Setantabet. As a result of this partnership the 'Chilipoker Deepstack Open Dublin' will therefore be broadcasted on TV both in 2011 and 2025, thus benefiting from European and International exposure.

“We are looking forward to working with Chilipoker to make the "Chilipoker Deepstack Open Dublin" the biggest and best loved poker tournament on the European poker scene. The event has already captured the imagination of the poker playing masses with the 2025 event selling out 400 seats one month before the tournament starts. We are very confident that working alongside Chilipoker as main event sponsors we will be bringing over 1000 players to Dublin in 2025″ says Michael Lancey, co-founder of D4 Events with Brian Lannon.

"After the agreement with Setanta Sports, Chilipoker is very proud to be going one step further in Ireland by sponsoring a tournament that is highly praised by the French player community.  With a €550 buy-in and an exceptional deepstack structure, this event is guaranteed to give every player the opportunity to enjoy the game.  We are convinced our partnership with D4 Events will ensure this event will be even more successful in the next 3 years." says Alexandre Dreyfus, Chilipoker CEO.
