The Monster is back! Following a hugely successful inaugural festival in April 2023, the Irish Poker Tour returns to the Green Isle Hotel in Dublin, Ireland, for the 2024 edition of The Monster.

Running from May 1-5, The Monster has combined guaranteed prize pools of �350,000, including the �200,000 guaranteed Monster Event, which only costs �150 to enter.

The Amateur Poker Association & Tour (APAT) has teamed up with the Irish Poker Tour for The Monster. APAT, the world's largest organization with a sole focus on recreational players, is running its �150 buy-in, �40,000 guaranteed APAT Irish Amateur Poker Championship. This event serves as the perfect warm-up for the rest of the five-day poker bonanza.

Fintan Gavin of the Irish Poker Tour has informed PokerNews that a large French contingent is making its way to Dublin for The Monster festival. Twenty French players learned of last year's Monster, and travelled over to the Emerald Isle together. At least 50 are making the journey this time around; expect them all to enter the �100 Holigames No-Limit Hold'em event on May 2, a tournament created in their honor.

The �150 buy-in Monster, with its �200,000 guarantee, is the festival's showpiece event. It features seven starting flights, each with a single re-entry permitted, with the eventual worthy champion crowned on May 5.

Kyle Slattery is the reigning champion. The Irishman came out on top of a massive 1,796-strong crowd to bank �22,245. Slattery's take-home pay would have been even more substantial, but he was part of a four-way deal involving runner-up Trevor Crawford (�20,000), David Callaghan (�10,000), and Michael Murphy (�10,000).

Last year's Monster boasted a �216,643 prize pool from a �150,000 guarantee. Expect even an even larger pot based on the impressive turnouts for Irish Poker Tour events that have run since then.
