Geilich becomes two-time champ at GUKPT Blackpool

By Mad Harper

Grosvenor sponsored pro Ludovic Geilich has sensationally won a second GUKPT title, taking down the £1,250 buy-in Main Event in Blackpool for £56,150. His victory comes only two months after he joined Team Grosvenor and less than four months since finishing fourth in Blackpool last November.

 Geilich outlasted a field of 207 entries this time around and was a massive chip leader going into the star-studded final table. He beat Callum Gordon heads-up with Gordon taking £42,080 for his runner-up finish. It was a bitter-sweet result for Gordon who also finished second in last November’s Blackpool after a chop with Ian Gascoigne.

Geilich said: “Callum is a very tough opponent. He’s never been knocked out in Blackpool! He played a great strategy heads-up and I played the exact same strategy so I’m over the moon to win.”

 Andy “Stato” Hulme finished in third place for £29,500 and Keith Johnson was fourth for £19,620. 2022 Player of the Year Matt Davenport was eighth for £7,120.

 Geilich has had a close relationship with the Grosvenor tour right from the start of his live poker career. His first recorded cash came in 2007 when he finished eighth in a £200 GUKPT London side event. But it wasn’t until Edinburgh last year that he won his first Main Event title. The £79,590 first prize helped boost his total live tournament winnings to over $3.6 million.

 Next up for GUKPT fans – Leg 4 of the tour in Edinburgh from April 4 to 14. Don’t miss the chance to win back up to 100% of your MET-booked travel costs in credits! The GUKPT Edinburgh Main Event is one of scores of tournaments this year which are eligible for MainEventTravel’s amazing #FinalTableFreeroll promotion.

 Flynn flies high in Mini Main

British player Peter Flynn (pictured below) shipped the GUKPT Blackpool Mini Main Event, beating a  379-entry field to win a career-best £14,610. The total prize pool was £75,040 with 50 places paid. Among those getting a slice of the cake were Tim Chung, Wendy Watson MBE, Cristian Popescu and Arian Kashani.

Cal Morreale
2023 Player of the Year
Cal Morreale (pictured below) added more points to his standings in the current National Poker League when he took down yet another tournament at GUKPT Blackpool. He outlasted a field of 103 players to win the £200 turbo for £4,330. The total prize pool was £17,800. Morreale has already had some 20 cashes this year, taking down the Omaha 4/5/6 event at the UK Poker Open, cashing five times at GUKPT London in January, winning the Grosvenor 25/50 series in Luton for £22,965, cashing three times at GUKPT Manchester and three times in the new 888poker UK Poker League. Morreale won a £40k Grosvenor Sponsorship package last year after dominating the Player of the Year leaderboard. He’s currently miles ahead of his nearest rival in the league – Matt Davenport, who was the 2022 Player of the Year.

High Roller

Congratulations to Endrit Geci-Dempsey (pictured below) who won the GUKPT Blackpool High Roller for £22,960. Endrit beat the 43-entry field – and Andrew “Stato” Hulme heads-up. The total prize pool was £61,920. Others who cashed included new Main Event champ Ludovic Geilich who finished fourth for £7,000. 

 

Blackpool Cup

Keith Littlewood (pictured below) won the GUKPT Blackpool Cup for £7,520 after beating Andrew Aspinall heads-up. The total prize pool was £27,840.
