Leg 6 Of The GUKPT
If you're a UK poker player keen to catch some top tournament action in a swish location then speed over to Luton and try to take part in Leg 6 of the GUKPT.
The main event started today at 2pm but players with advanced ability in the dark arts of palm greasing may be able to wangle themselves a seat at tomorrow's Day1b.
The tournament follows the familiar structure and has a £1,000+60 buy in. Record numbers are expected to generate a teetering prize pool and, as standard on the GUKPT, the winner will also receive a goody bag consisting of:
A seat at the tour's Champion of Champions event. A free entry to the £3,000 final. And an iPod nano.
The festival began on Saturday at the G-Casino and has seen an impressive amount of players chasing some high class poker.
The opening day's £100 NL tournament attracted 192 players and was won by newcomer Gabriel Macavoray. After banking the £5,810 first prize, we are sure we will see more of him on the UK circuit.
Another relative novice won Sunday's £150 PL tournament. Denying the disadvantage suggested by his name, Andy Greekfish fought his way to the top of the food chain and netted £4,250.
With 80 online qualifiers expected for the main event, the trend to reward the greenhorns could continue.
We will find out on Sunday.
