Top 3 Highlights From Upcoming UK Live Poker Calendar

WSOP Circuit UK at Dusk Till Dawn (£1,000,000 GTD)

Dusk Till Dawn is hosting the biggest prize pool on the UK calendar this winter from 4 to 16 November. The £1,500 Main Event comes with a £1,000,000 guaranteed, so expect massive crowds and heavy action. Since it’s official WSOP Circuit stop players wont’t be hunting just money but also WSOP gold rings.

GUKPT Grand Final at The Vic (£500,000 GTD)

From 19 to 29 November, Grosvenor wraps up its 20th anniversary GUKPT season in London’s The Vic. The £2,000 Main Event features £500,000 guaranteed and extra high roller action is available at £5,000 High Roller offering £250,000 guarantee. If you bust the Main, you still have the £340 GUKPT Cup, £250 Mini Main, and Omaha side events to fall back on. GUKPT Grand Final is also the finish line for the National Poker League leaderboard, so every top British regular will be in the room firing bullets. 

UKPC Masters at Dusk Till Dawn (£500,000 GTD)

If you want elite mid-stakes action, head to Nottingham’s Dusk Till Dawn poker club between 19 and 28 September. The UKPC Masters puts up a massive £500,000 guarantee for just £560, offering decent value for a mid-stakes tournament. Tournament stays true to deepstack poker with 100,000 chips to start Day 1, so nobody is forced into shove-or-fold mode early on.
If you have been waiting for the right time to jump into a live festival, the next couple of months are as good as it gets. Satellite in for cheap, register direct if your bankroll allows it, and let us see if you can bag a stack for Day 2. May the poker gods treat you well out there.
