The event, which is being held this year at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, is the biggest student poker festival nationwide and has been growing year-on-year since its creation. Last year Joseph Kwok staged a remarkable comeback on the final table – and beat a 965-strong field overall - to take down the Main Event for £5,000. He cut a three-way deal with Leicester student Isaac Carlisle, who was runner-up, and third-placed Jack Armorgie. Philip Bain took down the £250 High Roller for £3,230.

 

Players get 15,000 starting stack for the £30 + £6 buy-in Main Event and two re-entries are allowed per flight.
