Marc Dubach last night topped the UKIPT High Roller beating out a tough final table to secure his first six-figure score. The likes of Byron Kaverman ($1,296,799 career live winnings), Martin Hanowski ($407,289), and EPT winner Zimnan Ziyard ($962,578) were close on Dubach's heels.
Tom Hall's 6th place finish did more than win him £18,050 it also just put him out front in the UKIPT Player of the Year race, pipping Neil Raine at the last to collect a season's worth of UKIPT Main Event packages. A season of freerolls? Must be nice. You can read more about that tussle here.
One of the faces of the UKIPT, Team PokerStars Pro Vicky Coren, also ran deep but was first out on the final table. She busted in 9th for £7,650, which she seemed pretty chuffed with all in all...
But all in all, very good. £7,650 in prize money and I get to go home and have a bit of a Sunday afternoon. So I'm genuinely quite happy.
