Life’s a riot as they say – at least if you’re having fun - and this Saturday and Sunday that’s the minimum players can expect with the return of TonyBet’s RIOT Weekend – a €30,000 guaranteed slugfest across the dual disciplines of Hold’em and OFC to add to the adventure!

The game of Open-Face Chinese poker has been hitting the headlines and featuring some of the world’s best players for a few years now – and TonyBet have been at the forefront of this ā€˜revival’, holding World Championships in several disciplines.

This weekend, however, it’s a mix of amateurs and pros expected, across traditional Hold’em and OFC which will separate the adults from the children – and there’s a whole host of different events and buy-ins to do the separating!

"All you need to do to get to the very top is make as many rebuys/add-ons as you can – and the top 10 players will split the cash prize.ā€



Where do I find the tournaments?

"You will know a RIOT tournament when you see one!ā€ according to our hosts, who explain: ā€œEach event that is participating in this promotion will have RIOT Weekend in its name, and you can find these tournaments by clicking Poker or OFC and then Special.ā€
