Last year’s success story, Plymouth University student Michael Dorman, took down the £35 buy-in at the Main Event, and took home a cool £3k in cash, as well as the coveted trophy. As well as Dorman, his housemate, Michael Buckingham took 3rd, scooping £2,2,50 and made their university the overall team winners. They received a custom-built poker table for their university’s poker society.
