The GUKPT is the best poker tour in the UK with a variety of festivals and events for every bankroll.

The Champion of Champions - £100,000 For 2011 we are changing the way this works. Instead of having to wait a full year to take part in the freeroll, winners will now have the opportunity to win big directly after the event. The winners of each competition (excluding Super Satellites) throughout the week of each GUKPT Main Event, Summer Series and 10% Series will be eligible to take part in an online Champion of Champions tournament held the following week to decide the champion for each event. Throughout the year this amounts to a staggering £100,000 in added value. The GUKPT Rankings - £65,000 The GUKPT leader board was already the richest poker rankings system in Europe and now boasts a total of £65,000 in prizes up for grabs at the end of the year. All GUKPT tournaments (excluding Super Satellites) carry rankings points and these are accumulated throughout the year. The player who earns the most points will be declared the 2011 GUKPT Player of the Year, pocketing a first prize of £26,000 of added value. Shoal Survivor - £21,000 New for 2011, players who qualify into GUKPT Main Events via online qualifiers or live satellites in casinos are automatically entered into Sharky’s Shoal Survivor competiton to be the last qualifier remaining in the tournament. The successful Shoal Survivor will win entry into GUKPT event/s up to the value of the tournament they qualified for. Sharky’s Giveaways - £14,000 Two weeks prior to each event taking place, Sharky will be visiting the host club. Players will have the opportunity to play Heads Up against Sharky, for entry into various events during the GUKPT festival. Sharky will be giving away £1,500 (£2,000 for the Grand Final and £500 for the Summer Series) of added value on the day and everyone that plays the scheduled event on the day will also gain automatic entry into an online Super Satellite freeroll for the main event. This is an enormous £14,000 in giveaways.

· The Main Tour- 6 Main Event Legs and a Grand Final · The Summer Series- A series of three mini festivals taking place in two locations concurrently at opposite ends of the country between May and July.
