Situated at the buzzing Ricoh Arena in Coventry, this year’s UK Student Poker Championships (UKSPC) will get the action started on Wednesday 8th April.
The annual tournament runs from Wednesday 8th April – Sunday 12th April and will feature some of the best poker faces in university halls at the table.
The Grosvenor Casino Coventry will be gearing up for another record-breaking year, and even comes kitted out with a special menu tailored specific to student tastes and budgets!
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.
