William Kassouf Wins 2022 PokerStars UKIPT Dublin High Roller

William Kassouf won the 2022 PokerStars UKIPT Dublin High Roller tournament. The tournament attracted 53 players and generated a prize pool of €102,820 ($109,950). Kassouf's share of the pot was €33,410 ($35,726) for first place.

Terry Jordan re-bought six times but never advanced above 18th place with just seven slots paid. Kassouf had a massive chip stack with just nine players left and was the chip leader. Dara O'Kearney, an Irish icon, was the first High Roller to place in the money. Seamus Cahill was ousted in sixth place for €6,940, with Jason Tompkins, a player highly regarded by O'Kearney, busting in fifth place for €8,740, ensuring a non-Irish winner.

David Docherty, the winner of the GUKPT Luton event, finished his tournament in fourth place, earning €11,310 in the process. Niall Farrell, a fellow Scotsman who previously won the Triple Crown, made a remarkable turnaround from having the smallest stack to finishing in third place, which earned him €14,910. A heads-up battle between Tsz Tin Chevan of Hong Kong ensued. Kassouf overcame his last opponent and emerged victorious earning €33,410, leaving Tin Chevan with a €22,110 runners-up prize.
