GUKPT Heads North

Friday, 09 May 2008

The 5th leg of the 2008 GUKPT takes place at the Grosvenor casino in Newcastle next week from Wednesday 14th to Sunday 18th May. The five day poker festival gets underway with a £200 NL Hold’em freezeout on Wednesday. The other side events will run in tandem with the 4-day £1,000 main event, which starts at 2pm on Thursday.

Marc Goodwin will be looking follow up his win in Manchester with another strong showing while runner up Nik Persaud will be looking to become the first player to make four GUKPT main event final tables. These two now head the tour’s leaderboard, but Brighton winner Julian Thew is not far behind in third place. Last year’s Newcastle winner Maz Nawab will also be looking to book his first GUKPT main event final table of 2008.
