The crown jewel of the United Kingdom and Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT) has determined a champion for the first time in nearly five and a half years. It was the return of the PokerStars sponsored regional tours at one of its most iconic locations in the Hippodrome Casino in the heart of London. The 2022 UKIPT London £1,100 Main Event attracted a field of 645 entries and the biggest slice of the £619,200 prize pool was split among the final three finishers, who cut an ICM deal.
James Rann was the shortest stack by a small margin when the trio shook hands but ran(n) the best when it mattered from thereon.
