UK Student poker event of the year. The location is the Randolph Hotel, Oxford, Sunday 8th May and Roy Houghton will be the tournament director.
Confirmed guests so far include: Al Alvarez, Malcolm Harwood, Catman, Anthony Holden, Jon Shoreman, Bruce Atkinson, Debbie Berlin, Dave Welch, Ed Giddens, Sir Clive Sinclair, and Current World Series of Poker Champion Greg Raymer!
Any student at a UK Univerity can enter, but space is limited to 200. It's filling up fast. All unclaimed seats will be open to the public from 12.30pm with the actual tournament starting at 3pm.

Anyone in the UK gonna be around Oxford then? It's £20 unlimted rebuys for the first hour (plus a top-up). Estimated prize pool of £10,000 - £16,000.

I don't know if i'm horribly out of touch with the UK scene but the only names i recognised were Raymer and Sinclair. Unfortunately i won't be playing but it sounds fun. Doesn't anyone have finals???

TBH, that was just a cut and paste from a press release I got.
Raymer is giving a talk on the Saturday. It's in the University Science Museum. and it's on....










Fossils!

I may go, as the first 60 peeps get to play in a freeroll


only joking, it's on how he won the title and its first prize of $5,000,000 last year
