The folks at Grosvenor Casinos are just about recovered from the massive 2024 Goliath festival that saw William Watkins turn £200 into £166,058 after a nine-way deal at the final table earlier this month. That well-deserved rest is about to be broken with the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) Luton festival rapidly approaching.

The 2024 GUKPT Luton festival runs from September 11 through September 23 at the Grosvenor G Casino on Park Street West. Luton may not be the first city that springs to mind when you think of poker tournament action, but the Bedfordshire town is a proverbial poker hotbed.

The Grosvenor G Casino in Coventry is full to capacity, with hundreds of poker players competing in the 2024 edition of the Goliath. While the lure of a potential £1.5 million prize pool for a £200 entry is tempting, there is more to the Goliath’s series than that event. Several side events are taking place, and one, the £1,100 GUKPT Main Event, wrapped up over the weekend.

Some 632 players bought into the £1,100 GUKPT Main Event and created a £667,400 prize pool that the top 74 finishers shared. Plenty of household names were among the in-the-money finishers. They included reigning Goliath champion Alex Todd, Steve Jelinek, Guy Taylor (who went on to bag the High Roller chip lead), Tom Hall, Waheed “Wadey” Ashraf, Endrit Geci, Jamie O’Connor, Charles Chattha, Paul Haycock, and Kuljinder Sidhu.
