Where is the Irish Poker Open held?
The Royal Dublin Society at Merrion Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 — an exhibition campus rather than a casino, large enough for more than 280 poker tables.

No. It hosts the Irish Open for around twelve days each spring. Dublin's year-round poker is in the city's card rooms.
