If the Winamax SISMIX action wasn't enough for you, then the powers that be have announced that the Winamax Poker Open will return to CityWest Dublin later this year.
No more details have been released besides the fact that the festival will take place from the 23-29th September, but if last year's event is anything to by, then attendees will be in for a treat.
In 2018, Karol Wojciechowski won the event, beating Andrew Dooley into second place, and taking home €89,716 after a four-way deal.

Winamax Team Pro Guillaume Diaz Taking Selfies with Fans and Relaxing at the SISMIX
Niveau 14
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After two days spent by the pool, Guillaume Diaz has jumped into the Main Event of the largest Winamax SISMIX in history, and is getting to grips with the players who are enjoying the atmosphere at the tables.
"It was pretty exciting to come here," said Diaz. "To see all the new faces and guys who play on Winamax when we expanded to Spain. Everything is good; the pool and party are good!"
Today the weather is not so good, but Diaz is playing on Day 1c of the Main Event, so a little drizzle doesn't ruin his day.
"I'm happy with my choice of playing today! We're all happy to be here to have a lot of fun and not to think about poker that much. It's not like a festival where you're concentrating. You don't go to the bar at the end of the day at festivals like the WSOP, here you can just enjoy the pool or play beer pong."
The difference between the SISMIX and a "mainstream" festival is stark, but Diaz says the switch comes naturally to him when having to return to focusing on poker.
"I know that we are in one mood here, speaking to lots of players and knowing all the guys from Winamax spending a lot of time with them. We know here it's kind of a holiday, but we all have in our mind the WSOP where we know it'll be serious, but for now, we're just enjoying the moment."
Diaz has been taking perhaps a dozen selfies a day with poker fans, both at the poker table and at the pool.
"Here it's really insane. Here I prepare myself to speak a lot, be open and be really cool with everyone. That's the main focus, it's not on poker. Other places you're focused all on poker, so SISMIX is really different.
"Winamax is doing a really good job because there are lots of new faces coming from the clubs, from online qualification and things like this. Here you see that there are a lot of people who've come by car and got a house. Everyone is enjoying their holiday and there's the poker in the middle."
Lloret De Mar is a brand new poker destination for a major international tour like Winamax, and Diaz says he welcomes the chance to come to a new place and experience the poker players from around there.
"It's always good to experience new things and reach out to a new people. When you go seven times in, I don't know, Monaco, the people around there know that that is there. But maybe there are some guys in Croatia or I don't know who cannot come. It's good to change and have new faces who could come.
"I'd love to go to the south of Portugal with Winamax. Vilamoura or things like this. Faro is really nice too. I think there's room to grow!"

Updated Chip Counts

: 1,200/2,500, 2,500 ante
With the tournament average ticking over 100,000 and just 290 players remaining in this monster Day 1c flight of the Winamax SISMIX Main Event, Ivan Deyra shoved from small to big blind for around 40,000. His opponent folded, and the Winamax Team Pro lived to fight another day, albeit still as a short stack.
Meanwhile, Adrien Guyon is making the most of the six-max format and has over triple average midway through Level 15.

The Rain in Spain...
Niveau 16
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The Winamax SISMIX is not a case of making hay while the sun shines. Because when the rain comes as, unfortunately, it has today in Lloret De Mar, what do Winamax do?
They bring the hay-making machine inside. The same exciting musical acts? Inside. The delicious paella? Inside. The players who make this event the spectacle that it is? All inside.
Day 1d Gets Underway
Niveau 16
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The Turbo Day 1d has gotten underway, with plenty of big names back for their last chance of making it through to Day 2 of the Winamax SISMIX Main Event.
As expected, former champion Jerome Sgorrano is back in the field, as well as Winamax Team Pros Pierre Calamusa and Aladin Reskallah, and High Roller champion Jon Ander Vallinas, High Roller final tablists Julien Montois and Thomas Simsen, Parham Ahoor, Teunis Kooij, Antonin Teisseire and Erwann Pecheux.
We'll be focusing on Day 1c which concludes around midnight tonight and bring you full Day 1d chip counts before Day 2 gets underway on Saturday.

Niveau 16
