The largest-ever live poker tournament held outside of Las Vegas has crowned its latest champion, with Alex Todd taking down the 11th live edition Grosvenor Poker Goliath Main Event.

He took the lion's share of the a six-way deal that took place and then sealed the victory after defeating compatriot Richard Birchall in heads-up play.

The 2022 instalment drew a record-breaking 10,584 entries. However, it would only stand the test of time for 12 months as this year's tournament smashed the previous total and attracted 11,493 entries to make it the biggest Goliath ever.
