Howlett Takes Down Road to PSPC Dublin; Platinum Pass to be Awarded in Nottingham

Ireland's John Howlett became the latest player to book his place at the 2023 PokerStars Players Championship, following his victory last week at Road to PSPC Dublin.

Howlett was the last player standing from the 318-entry field and took home the €22,700 first-place prize alongside a coveted Platinum Pass worth $30,000. He overcame compatriot David Costello at heads-up play to secure the lion's share of the €113,170 prize pool.

The victory takes Howlett's recorded live tournaments over the $65,000 mark, however much of the Irishman's success has come on the virtual felt.
