Irish Poker Open Over

The winner of the latest Irish Poker Open is one Neil Channing, closing out this year’s poker festivities in the Emerald Isle with a €801,400 payday. Channing is the latest champion in a long line, as the Irish Open is the longest running pro poker event in Europe, and comes second globally only behind the event that inspired it, the World Series of Poker. The rest of the 2008 Irish Open final table finishers are: Donal Norton - €420,000, Thomas Dunwoodie - €275,000, Tim Blake - €220,000, Kai Danilo Paulsen - €175,000, Edwin Tournier - €135,000, Carsten Joh – €100,000, Eric Larcheveque - €75,000 and John Keown - €50,000.
