Well, that’s it for the tour for this year.  There’s just a small matter of the Champion of Champions event in Luton next week.  I personally won’t be in attendance but I’m sure our illustrious tour manager Jonathan will have something to blog home about.

Take care all.  May all your winning pots be large ones.  See you next year in Brighton where we’ll start it all over again.

It’s all over.  The chips fly in as Paul calls Jeff’s all-in raise with the board showing 8sKh5c7h.
Jeff has 56 but Paul has it made with 46.  Jeff can only split it.  An elephant queen on the river and Paul Foltyn is the GUKPT Grand Final Champion and takes home £167,050.

Jeff Duvall finishes second for £96,600

Here we are again.

Jeff bets 80k on a K86 flop and Paul moves in.  “I’ve go to call”.
Paul has K9 and Jeff 85 and blankety blank.

Paul back up to 2.1 mil and Jeff 600kish - again!

You still here, viewer?

Jeff getting the best of it and up to 1.6 mil, Paul with 1.1 mil.  Paul with kicker trouble hitting an 8 with a 4 kicker from the button, but Jeff hitting an 8 with a Q kicker, as an example of how it’s going down.

Paul with slightly more chips.  “You want to just play for the trophy?”, from Jeff.
“Nah, what’s £35k.  I’d rather play it out proper-like” from Paul.
“Ok, all-in”  Paul folds.

Jeff has slightly more now.

Blinds up to 30k 60k

Jeff with 89 and Paul with KJ.  Jeff hits both an 8 and a 9.

Jeff 1.5 mil

Paul 1.2 mil

Paul just doubled up again with QQ’s against Ac8c of Jeff.  The latter did hit an 8 on the flop for more outs, but here we still are.

Paul 2,030,000

Jeff 730k

Jeff Duvall looks like he could continue playing at this level for another couple of days.  He’s so together, relaxed and showing no signs of tiring.
Paul starting to look a tad frazzled.  Oh these young bucks, eh?

Jeff makes it 120k to go from the button and called by Paul
Paul checks the 7d8c9s flop and Jeff “all-in”.  Paul calls this one!
Jeff has pocket 33’s and Paul KT for a open-ender plus two overcards.
The next two cards are blankly irrelevant and Jeff back to 1.6 million.
Paul has 1.1 million (deja vu?)
