RiffMan117 wins GUKPT Online Festival

The $500 main event of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour has been won by RiffMan117, also known as Curtis Ledger. Having qualified for the tournament earlier the same day via a $25 feeder tournament, Curtis finally emerged victorious after eight hours of play, taking down the $18,495 first prize plus seats into the �3,000 GUKPT Grand Final and the �75,000 Champion of Champions tournament. Getting down to heads-up play, Ledger found himself up against Joe Grech, under the screenname ‘JoeTheJoker’. After battling it out at the end of the eight hour stint, Curtis eventually overcame Joe, who pocketed just under $11,000 for second place. The tournament itself followed the same blinds structure as a live GUKPT event. Players also started with 10,000 chips, as per the live counterpart events, but the blinds levels lasted half an hour instead of the usual one hour that is played on the main tour. The top nine players in all of the online festival events also receive ranking points towards the �30,000 GUKPT Leaderboard.
