The money bubble burst just after 9:00 p.m. on Saturday’s Day 2 and it was Pancios Ellianas who was the unfortunate soul to pop it. Down to 40,000 chips at the 3,000/6,000/6,000a level, Ellianas moved all-in with ace-six and Daniel Harwood called with pocket tens. Those tens held and Ellianas busted in 34th place.

Harwood would eventually bust in 24th place for a £3,510 score.

Jean Chanpan Cheong was the first player to collect some prize money for his efforts. The likes of Rick Trigg (32nd - £3,010), GUKPT regular Yiannis Liperis (29th - £3,010), and Haresh Thakker (23rd - £4,010) followed suit.

Day 2 concluded with 17 players in the hunt for the title and Dedusha in the driving seat being the only player with a seven-figure stack.

Paul Tedeschi was a high profile bust out at the start of Day 3. The talented Frenchman got his chips into the middle with king-queen only to run into the queen held by Patrice Brandt. The queens remained the best hand and Tedeschi crashed out in 14th place for £5,310.

Another elite player fell by the wayside when Phil Souki headed to the cashier’s desk with a slip awarding him 13th place money.

The final table was set three hours after Day 3 began. Emrah Cakmak jammed for 11 big blinds with king-ten and Brandt called with ace-queen. Cakmak soared into the lead courtesy of a ten on the flop, but an ace on the river, known as a Greenstein after the legendary Barry Greenstein, sent Cakmak to the showers.

Paul Siddle’s appearance at the nine-handed final table was short-lived. He committed 21 big blinds with ace-king only to lose to Ben Winsor’s pocket tens. Siddle has recently won the $2,200 partypoker LIVE MILLIONS UK Warm Up for $23,835.

Oliver Bithnall busted in eighth-place and became the first player to collect a five-figure prize. Bithnell was all-in with king-four on a king-high flop for his last seven big blinds but was out-kicked by the king-jack in the hand of Dedusha.

Seventh-place and £13,040 went to Jack O’Neill. He looked down at ace-trey in the small blind and open-shoved for 17.5 big blinds. Unfortunately for O’Neill, Dedusha was dealt pocket sevens in the big blind and he called. The board ran void of drama and the players at the final table gained a little more elbow room.

Then came the demise of Damian Bell in sixth-place. A seven-high flop with two diamonds was enough for Bell to get his stack in with king-jack of diamonds. A player referred to simply as “Mo” called with ace-queen of diamonds. Neither player improved, but Mo didn’t need to. Game over for Bell.

Coren-Mitchell Loses Coinflip To Bust

Two-time European Poker Tour Main Event championVictoria Coren-Mitchell is no stranger to The Poker Room in London and she would have made a very popular GUKPT London champion. It wasn’t to be, however, as she lost a crucial coinflip against Dedusha. Coren-Mitchell was all-in with ace-king against Dedusha’s pocket threes. The flop gave her an inside straight draw, but the turn and river bricked to send the Only Connect quiz show host to the rail in fifth-place, good for £23,570.

Thanks so much for all the support. Of course it’s a shame not to win but as I always say to young players: if you can’t be happy with a place and a profit, don’t play! All you can do is stay ahead of the game, and I’m very happy.

The man with no surname was the next to bust. He lost a huge pot at the hands of Dedusha when his aces were cracked by Dedusha’s set of seven. That left Mo with nine big blinds and he busted soon after, while Dedusha stacked up 4,200,000 of the 7,500,000 chips in play.

Heads-up was set 20-minutes later when Dedusha sent Brandt into the dark London night. Brandt pushed his 15 big blinds into the middle with ace-eight and lost to the hot-running Dedusha’s king-queen. Third-place locked up £55,670 for Brandt.

Dedusha held a massive 6,000,000 to 1,500,000 chip advantage over Winsor going into heads-up and it proved too substantial a gap for Winsor to bridge.

It was a coinflip then brought an end to proceedings. Winsor, who last year became the first player to win two GUKPT Grand Finals, chose pocket fives to jam his last 15 big blinds in with. Dedusha called with queen-ten and the race was on. A ten on the turn proved more than enough for Dediusha to win, which resigned Winsor to the £91,270 consolation prize.

Next up for the GUKPT is a journey north to Manchester from February 23rd. The Main Event here is a £1,110 buy-in affair with £200,000 guaranteed.

Aprirose Investors are seeking offers in the region of £70 million for the iconic Grosvenor Victoria Casino on Edgware Road, London.

“The Grosvenor Victoria Casino is a London West End institution that makes an attractive investment for potential buyers,' said Manish Gudka, chief executive at Aprirose. 'We have appointed our advisers to dispose of the asset as we look to exit in line with our investment strategy at the time of purchase.”

Known affectionately as “The Vic,” the casino has a loyal customer base and welcomes an upwards of 1,200 customers per day through its doors. Its poker room has hosted major tournaments such as those on the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour, World Series of Poker Europe, European Poker Tour and the recent Unibet Open London festival.

The poker room can seat 250 players and has been a regular haunt for The Hendon Mob’s Barney and Ross Boatman, Joe Beevers and Victoria Coren-Mitchell, the latter having written about her experiences of The Vic in her superb book For Richer For Poorer: Confessions of a Player.

In 2014, Aprirose Investors secured the freehold sale of the casino for £55.5 million but has now appointed Knight Frank and Savills to promote a sale with an asking price in the region of £70 million.

“The marketing of this asset presents an outstanding opportunity as London casinos are rarely offered to the open market,' Director of central London investment at Savills Jonathan O’Regan said. 'The casino sector is performing well in London and Grosvenor Casinos, the U.K.’s biggest brand, is an excellent covenant for this asset.”

There is an agreement in place that would see Rank Group, owners of the Grosvenor Casino brand, remain as the operator of the casino by leasing it back from its new owner until 2026.
