Bodog will be in sunny Ireland this month as it announces exclusive sponsorship of The Waterford Open 2008. The Bodog Waterford Open marks the first of many Bodog sponsored events in Europe.

Keith McDonnell, managing director of Bodog Europe said, “This is the first Bodog sponsored poker tournament in Europe and we’re excited about giving our European online players a tournament where they can meet face to face and compete for some serious money and bragging rights!”
“There will be many more Bodog tournaments across Europe to look forward to, and with our full range of services launching soon, Bodog is set to take the European scene by storm.”
Players will be able to dip their toes into the Bodog lifestyle by chilling out in the Bodog Lounge and admiring the scenery in the form of the famous Bodog Girls.
