In 2010, the Luton leg of the GUKPT attracted 229 players for the Main Event.   It was won by Neil Channing who took £64,050 from the £229,000 prize pool as well as his first GUKPT title; throughout the GUKPT’s history Luton has always proved one of the most popular stops nationwide and interest suggests this year will be no exception.

For those who have yet to secure their seats on http://www.grosvenorcasinos.com/ or in live satellites, there are 10 seats guaranteed in the £30 Super Satellite this Sunday evening at the G Casino itself.  Following that are two more during the week – one freezeout and one single-rebuy – to suit a range of bankrolls.
