Best online poker rooms for Irish poker players

Best Irish poker players

With less than 5 million inhabitants, Ireland can be called a poker superpower: Irish players have won $128 million in the live poker circuit and four WSOP golden bracelets (Noel Furlong, Donnacha O'Dea, Ciaran O'Leary, and Marty Smyth).

Andy Black ($4,8M in profits, IPO champion), Marty Smyth ($3,9M in profits, WSOP and EPT champion), Eoghan "Tiltpaddy" O'Dea ($3,2M in profits) led the ranking of the most successful Irish poker players. Also, high profile players such as Steve "Mr. Tim Caum" O'Dwyer ($30M in profits, EPT, WPT, and Triton Super High Roller champion) have chosen Dublin, Ireland, as their residence.

Sean "monkeybudg" Prendiville, Tomas "luckymo32" Geleziunas, and NukeTheFish! are the best Irish online poker players, which in total have won more than $120M, which is not surprising considering how skilled are Irish poker players and the current legal status of online poker in Ireland.

Irish legal poker background

Online poker in Ireland hasn't yet been regulated, and although there are some bills in progress to do so, none of the proposals are aimed at damaging the market as the Irish people know it. The Irish parliament may approve a license fee for overseas operators who will be happily paid by online poker rooms to keep serving the market.

The only significant change for players in the future will be an additional 1% charged as tax, which seems very reasonable.

Therefore, Irish poker players are welcome to join the best online poker rooms with top rakeback deals from trusted affiliates such as Worldpokerdeals.
