Government has failed to clarify key questions raised by its proposals, says organiser

The Irish Poker Championship. Poker tournament organiser Fintan Gavin, whose events lure hundreds of contestants, fears the impact of new gambling laws on his business but says he cannot get Government to clarify key questions raised by its proposals.

However, Mr Gavin says he is unsure of how the Government’s Gambling Regulation Bill, due before the Dáil next week, will regulate these events. Part of his problem is that he is unsure if the new laws will apply to poker tournaments once the legislation is passed. On this basis, he wants Government or the regulator to clarify if the law will apply to these tournaments, and if so, how will it apply.
