The newly refurbished G Casino Luton was the location this weekend for the seventh leg of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour. With an impressive field of 314 players the winner of this leg walked away with over £100,000 and a seat at the Grand Final later this year in London worth £3,000. Top name poker professionals, internet qualifiers and local players all descended on the casino for their chance of TV stardom and the top prize. Roland de Wolfe, Surinder Sunar, Willie Tann, Praz Bansi and Mickey Wernick were just some of the big name professionals that fell short.
In the end it was Dave Clark from Colchester who battled past Warren Wooldridge to finish in first place after over ten hours of play at the poker table. The final contained the GUKPT’s first Scandinavian who finished 5th whilst two time finalist and Blue Square qualifier Jonathan Butters came a commendable third. Dave Clark will be able to relive his triumph later on in the year when it is shown on Channel Four.
