Do you know someone who is pining for a Platinum Pass to the PSPC? Time is running out to win one, but with your nomination that person could be heading to the Bahamas as part of Team Ireland.
The PokerStars Players Championship is all about the players. The clue is in the name.
Continuing that ethos, we want to give away a Pass to someone that the poker community feels deserves to join the guys in the Bahamas.

It could be someone who just missed out on a pass before, or someone who has contributed in to poker over the years in a great way and should be recognised, or just someone they think deserves a chip and a chair and the chance to win life changing sums of money in an amazing location.
Eleven Players from Ireland have claimed a Platinum Pass for the PSPC so far, and therefore Ireland has significant representation at the PSPC. At a recent MegaStack event in Dublin (November 17), we leveraged the event to bring some of these guys together as a team.
