Media Release: Thursday 20th February 2020
Season 14 of Grosvenor Casinos’ GUKPT started with a bang in London after a momentous week of poker which saw local player Artan Dedusha crowned the first GUKPT champion of 2020. Dedusha stayed on top of the chipcounts throughout the event, successfully navigating his way through a field packed with formidable competitors such as TV presenter and journalist Victoria Coren and 3 times GUKPT champion, Ben Winsor. He left The Poker Room with the coveted GUKPT trophy and a cash prize of over £130,000.
Now it’s Grosvenor Casino Bury New Road, Manchester’s turn to play host to the latest GUKPT festival. With a newly tweaked schedule we know players will be mad for, action kicks off this Saturday with the first flight of the £20,000 GUKPT Mini Main. This is quickly followed by a range of satellites and a packed line up including Omaha, Women’s and Seniors’ side events.
The first Day 1 of the £200,000 Guaranteed GUKPT Main Event takes place on Thursday 27th February. This means there’s still plenty of time for players to win their £1,000+110 seat for a fraction of the entry cost, either at www.grosvenorpoker.com or at Grosvenor Casino Bury New Road, Manchester. Please find full GUKPT Manchester schedule here.
The latest National League is also only a few months in and the league table is already hotting up with plenty of movement amongst the top 10 players. With over £150,000 in 2021 Grosvenor Casinos’ Poker packages to play for, Grosvenor Casinos is already looking forward to seeing how the tables turn over the next few months.
