The Olympic Casino Lietuva is set to host the largest poker festival held in Lithuania when the OlyBet Kings of Vilnius heads into town on November 15. The festival features more than 30 events and satellites, including a €1,100 Main Event boasting an impressive €250,000 guaranteed prize pool.

November 15 is when the Kings of Vilnius festival shuffles up and deals, ironically, with a €555 buy-in event called the Kings of Vilnius Championship. This opening event has a trio of flights, including a turbo-structured Day 1C, before taking another two days to conclude.

The €1,100 No-Limit Hold’em Main Event is the showpiece tournament on the Kings of Vilnius schedule. Its three Day 1s run between November 21-22, with Day 2 held on November 23, before wrapping up on November 25. OlyBet has placed a €250,000 guarantee on the Main Event’s prize pool, making it the largest guaranteed tournament ever held in Lithuania.

“We are absolutely thrilled to bring the festival to Lithuania. It marks a significant milestone for all parties involved,” Marijus Grigonis, Head of Baltic Poker Operations at Olympic Entertainment Group, said. “We are expected to break Lithuanian poker records by having a quarter of a million guaranteed in the Main Event, therefore, we welcome all flag-hunters and poker enthusiasts to join the action in Vilnius.”

In addition to the eagerly anticipated Main Event, the Kings of Vilnius boasts over 30 tournaments and satellites. These include traditional bounty events, progressive and mystery bounties, a €2,000 High Roller, and the first-ever Pot-Limit Sviten Special event held on Lithuanian soil.

OlyBet has pushed the boat out regarding satellites for the Main Event. €30 buy-in satellites run several times during the Kings of Vilnius festival, with some guaranteeing as many as four €1,100 seats.

€80 satellites for the €2,000 High Roller also look good value as they have at least two seats guaranteed in each.

OlyBet was in Vilnius in Jun for the Jacks of June festival. It proved popular with locals, particularly the €555 No-Limit Hold’em Main Event. Some 590 players bought in, resulting in a guarantee-busting €187,200 prize pool. All nine seats at the final table were filled with Lithuanian grinders, with Ovidijus Berenis coming out on top and banking €34,950 after a heads-up deal with an anonymous player (€30,000). Expect similar, if not larger, figures when the Kings of Vilnius festival gets underway.

Times Running Out to Win Your Way into the IPT Killarney Main Event

The Irish Poker Tour Killarney Festival runs from September 24 through September 29, meaning time is rapidly running out if you plan to win your way into the €400,000 guaranteed Irish Poker Cup online at Paddy Power Poker. Paddy Power Poker has been a long-time partner of the Irish Poker Tour, so it makes sense for online satellites to run there. However, a quick glance at the Paddy Power Poker tournament lobby reveals that the seat-only satellites end on September 14, with the final package-awarding satellites stopping on September 15. Eight IPT Killarney Packages Guaranteed on September 15 Your best chance of getting your hands on a €1,500 Irish Poker Tour Killarney package is via the €100 buy-in satellite at 8:00 p.m. GMT on September 15. Paddy Power Poker guarantees at least eight packages, worth a combined €12,000, will be won. Each package contains: If you find the €100 buy-in a little steep, other satellites from €1 are available. The €1 satellites award tickets to the €10 buy-in satellites, which then feed into this €100 buy-in affair. Whether you win a package or capture a €700 ticket in the seat-only satellites, you’re automatically entered into Paddy Power Poker’s Sole Survivor promotion. Be the last Paddy Power Poker qualifier in the €400,000 guaranteed Irish Poker Cup in Killarney, and you’ll receive a €10,000 prize on top of any prize money you win from the tournament itself. Last Chance to Qualify Comes With a €5,000 Freeroll Your very last chance to qualify online comes in the popular Twitch IPT Killarney tournament at 8:30 p.m. GMT on September 17. Paddy Power Poker ambassador Conor O’Driscoll hosts this game and streams the action on his popular Twitch channel. The buy-in is €50 and the tournament guarantees the winner will bank a €1,500 Irish Poker Tour Killarney package thanks to Paddy Power Poker adding €1,000 to the prize pool. Additionally, if you win this package, you’ll receive an invite to a €5,000 Twitch Invitational Freeroll during the live festival. 2024 Irish Poker Tour Killarney Schedule The 2024 edition of the Irish Poker Tour Killarney festival is the biggest yet, with total guarantees increasing from €500,000 to over €700,000. Last year’s Irish Poker Cup, the name given to the stop’s Main Event, was a €600 buy-in affair guaranteeing €300,000. However, 848 entrants created a €441,893 prize pool, with champion Jamie Flynn taking home €70,000 after a heads-up deal with Niall McAree (€63,000). This time around, the Irish Poker Cup has a slightly larger €700 buy-in, but its guarantee has soared to €400,000, with €10,000 added by Paddy Power Poker, so expect even bigger prizes this time around.
