GBP 121 600 FOR ONLINE QUALIFIER JEROME

23 February 2007

Another success for the Grosvenor U.K. Poker Tour

The Grosvenor U.K. Poker Tour juggernaut continued to attract major player attention over the weekend with its second leg tourney in Walsall, UK, earning winner Jerome Bradpiece, who qualified for the tourney online, a very nice GBP 121 600 payday.

23 year old Bradpiece is from London and has been on the pro player side of the business for the last eight months. He went into the final table with a significant chip lead and showed both skill and aggression in maintaining his dominance to the end - a brief but sharp three hand, head-to-head clash with runner up and fellow online qualifier Billy Ngo.

Proving once again the popularity of this 11 tourney series, all 360 seats were sold-out with a host of heavy hitters in the field, including Pete "The Bandit" Evans, who famously finished second to Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott in the first series of Late Night poker, and The Hendon Mob's Joe Beevers.

The next leg of the GBP1 000 No-Limit Hold'em poker series will be between March 22-25 in Cardiff, and the grand finale, in which Bradpiece has now earned a seat, is planned for London in November.

Each leg is filmed for broadcast on Channel 4 later in the year.
