The Irish Open has announced that a string of famous names will be making the trip from England, continental Europe and the US to play in this year's event, which begins on April 6th.

Running over the Easter weekend, the tournament's final table takes place on April 9th and is likely to feature some of the famous names just announced, which include Mike Sexton and Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott.

Other names well-known to UK players include former Liverpool footballer Jan Molby and ex-EastEnders star Michael Greco, who last weekend secured his first ever major tournament win at the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour.

Players from the US will be more familiar with poker pair Jennifer Tilly and Phil Laak, both of whom will also be in attendance.

"The Irish Open, wow. Very cool. Very cool indeed. Fully Genius sir. Fully genius," Laak said ahead of the event.

Laak will be also joined at the event by friend and former roommate Antonio Esfandiari.
