Goodbye From Luton – 21:15

After four days of fast and furious poker the GUKPT Luton Main Event 2019 is now in the history books. The leg has had another increase in entries, with 307 in total over the first two day ones.

The field had been whittled down to just 15 players who came back today to play down to a winner! The chip leader was Vikrum Mehta and he closed it out, taking just 9 hours to take down the title!

Luton has been a great host as it always is and the side events have been buzzing all week! The tour only takes a short break now, with Blackpool beginning three weeks today! It’s the party leg of the tour, so make sure you’re there for the whole week. 3rd-10th November.

Thanks for joining us over the last four days.

Until next time, be lucky!
