Irish Open History & Past Champions
The Irish Open holds a special place in the hearts of poker enthusiasts worldwide. As the longest-running no-limit hold'em tournament outside of Las Vegas, it boasts a rich history dating back over 42 years. The event gained international recognition in 1984 when 25 American players, including poker legends Stu Ungar, Chip Reese, and Doyle Brunson, flocked to Dublin. Since then, it has continued to thrive, attracting players from all corners of the globe.
Notable champions such as Steve O��Dwyer and Griffin Benger have left their mark on the Main Event, adding to the tournament's prestige and allure. O��Dwyer's victory in 2022, in front of his hometown crowd, remains a highlight in Irish poker history.
