Following feedback from players on the GUKPT, each 2019 GUKPT Mini Main Event will feature an online Day 1 held at Grosvenor Poker. This means players can play a Day 1 from the comfort of their own homes, or on the move via the Grosvenor Poker mobile app, and not have to travel to the venue until they have made Day 2 or want to take another shot at a Day 1.
The 2019 GUKPT Grand Final will now feature a £500,000 guaranteed prize pool, an increase of £100,000. New to the Grand Final schedule is a yet-to-be-announced High Roller event that is sure to pique the interest of some of the game’s best poker tournament players.
25/25 Series
The hugely popular 25/25 Series continues in 2019 with no less than 35 stops planned. These tournaments cost £225 to enter and feature a £25,000 guaranteed prize pool. Like the 2019 GUKPT Main Events, there will be an online Day 1 held on the Wednesday before each live Day 1, giving players more flexibility.
Seasonal Specials
Other popular festivals return for 2019 and should prove to be a major hit. The Easter Beast, Summer Sizzler and Christmas Cracker all return. They each cover seven regions, each featuring a £115 buy-in tournament with £20,000 guaranteed prize pools.
This format sees players play Day 1 across seven regions before combining for Day 2 to play the tournament out for the title.
UK Student Poker Championship and the 2019 Goliath
The Grosvenor Casino UK Student Poker Championship returns to Coventry from Apr. 23 for a week-long festival. The UKSPC has long been a popular stop for students all around the UK and, if previous editions are anything to go by, there should be plenty of fun and off-the-table antics to get involved in.
Keep Jul. 27 free if you fancy attempting to slay the Goliath. This tournament has broken the attendance record for the past couple of events, with the 2018 Goliath attracting a crowd of 7,584. Florian Duta won the event this year for £101,450. The 2019 Goliath guarantees the champion will walk away with at least £100,000.
New Deepstack and National League
Grosvenor Casinos is putting the finishing touches to its new Deepstack events that will take place at various destinations each weekend, giving players the chance to turn £150 into share of a guaranteed £12,000.
Players can also win Diamond and Platinum GUKPT packages for 2020 by competing in Grosvenor Casinos poker tournaments that have a £100 or higher buy-in and feature more than one starting flight. More details of this National League are coming soon.

The Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) heads into its 14th season when 2020 kicks off and it looks like another action-packed season is on the cards.
GUKPT has unveiled the dates for the 2020 season and you’re in for a treat if you though last season’s schedule was perfect because it is more of the same from the guys at Grosvenor.
The 2020 schedule is almost a perfect match for 2019’s with the only difference being the Luton and London legs have switched around. Last year, the GUKPT travelled to Luton on the fourth leg and then onto London for Leg 5. In 2020, London is the fourth leg with Luton taking place at a slightly later date.
You also need to pencil in July 29th through August 9th if you want to get involved in the massive Goliath event. No details, apart from the dates, have been announced, but we would expect at least a £500,000 guarantee for a small buy-in based on previous events.
Lee Reynolds triumphed in the 2019 Goliath after outlasting a record-breaking field of 7,583 opponents. Reynolds walked away with £64,61 after a five-handed deal involving Tom Jones, Cristian Tamas, Derek Borwick, and Christopher Bartlett. You can check out a recap of the 2019 Goliath action here.

GUKPT Season 13 Main Event Results
The 13th GUKPT season was highly successful with all eight Main Events, and the Grand Final, surpassing their guarantees. There’s definitely still a demand for mid-stakes live poker tournaments with solid structures in the United Kingdom and the players came out to support the tour.
An anonymous player took down the opening event in London and walked away with £100,000. How they’ll cash the cheque with “Anon” written on the front is anyone’s guess.
Other 2019 GUKPT champions included Bernar Maregedze who won in Manchester, Nathan Slater, Chris Louch, Cheuk Lee, and Brett Angell who was the Leeds champion. Vikrum Mehta and Matt Eardley were victorious in Luton and Blackpool respectively.
Ben Winsor enjoyed the most impressive result on the 13th edition of the GUKPT. Winsor won the £2,650 Grand Final Main Event to pad his bankroll with £188,610 this becoming the tour’s first-ever double winner of the Grand Final. No doubt he’ll be going for the hat-trick in 2020.
