Hey ho, there is always next year and I’m sure that this has given us even more motivation and determination to do better. However, I was very much gutted for Genting and its team to have not won more:( I am very happy for Kirsty and I think she has done a splendid job in terms of UKIPT’s success.
Kirsty Thompson (known as the mother of UKIPT) came on the top. I was holding my breath when the winner of the “Biggest Contribution to Growing & Promoting Poker” was read….Gary was sitting next to me and he was not moving either…one time!!? Hopefully he can add a WSOP bracelet to his winnings next. There is no doubt he had a tremendous 12 months, winning over $10mil & doing the UK poker community proud. He picked up a well deserved 3 awards – best cash games player, best tournament player & player of the year.
