The final table of the £2,500 buy-in Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) Grand Final featured an uneven field of nine players from the UK and a lone German, Fabian Quoss. Stacking the odds even further against Quoss was the inclusion of three of the UK’s top players in the forms of Triple Crown winner Jake Cody, long-time poker pro John Gale, and James Mitchell.

But, when all was said and done, it was the German Quoss who would lift the GUKPT trophy over his head in victory, after a hard-fought heads-up battle with the talented Jake Cody, who recently signed with PKR Poker.

  1. Fabian Quoss (Germany) – £138,750
  2. Jake Cody (UK) – £96,300
  3. Lalit Khajuria (UK) – £59,700
  4. Alex Elias (UK) – £36,550
  5. James Mitchell (UK) – £28,050
  6. Tamer Kamel (UK) – £23,150
  7. John Gale (UK) – £18,300
  8. Nathan Watson (UK) – £13,400
  9. Jonas Ovestad (UK) – £9,750
  10. Jonathan Beck (UK) – £8,550

The GUKPT will be back in action this January, when the tour kicks of its 2012 season (which will mark the sixth season of the GUKPT) with a stop in Manchester, from the 23rd – 29th of January, 2012.

Winners during Season 5 of the GUKPT included Sky Poker Pro Julian Thew (who picked up his record setting third GUKPT title during the 2011 GUKPT season), Andrew Peters, Charles Chattha, Alan Mansbridge, Hendon Mobber and UK poker legend Praz Bansi, and Peter McAdams.
