It’s UK National Final time again in the North and South as qualifiers from around the country descended onto the Grosvenor Casino in either Manchester or Luton. FIVE golden tickets were awarded at each final with a guaranteed cash prize-pool of £1,500 paid from 6th-13th place.
After around 8 hours of play in Manchester we had 5 first-time VEGAS100 qualifiers with Shobhit Singh emulating his brother Harsheet Singh‘s achievements earlier in the year by joining him as a player for VEGAS100 in May 2019. Shobhit was joined by Vicky Waddington, Gary Hutton, Gareth Owens & Bryan Douglas.
