One of Redtooth Poker’s longest serving regional final venues, the Genting Casino in Star City, Birmingham, hosted the second West Midlands final of the season. One player would be joining our West Midlands One winner, Catherine Winch, in Vegas.

The team event had first time winners in the Red Lion, Coventry. Gary Harrison, Johnny Read, Tom Blundell and Daniel Tutchings represented the venue and will take home the crystal glass trophy.
