The 16th season of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) concluded in London over the weekend with the crowning of the £2,000 GUKPT Grand Final champion. Rugby's Daniel Bedson is that champion after he outlasted 327 opponents to scoop £105,000 of the £576,480 prize pool.
The tournament paid out 31 places, and several star names littered the payouts. Euan McNicholas was the first player heading to the cashier's desk to collect his reward. Others that cashed included Leon Louis, WSOP Main Event finalist Jack Oliver, Daniel Laidlaw Philippe Souki, GUKPT Coventry champion Joe Hindry, Barny Boatman, Nick Marchington, and Robbie Bull.
