Robbie Bull Wins UKIPT London Main Event for £113,405

Nível 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
Robbie Bull is the latest UKIPT champion!
Robbie Bull is the latest UKIPT champion!

It was a busy day in London on Sunday. Not only did the Season 10 European Poker Tour London Main Event kick off, but also Martin Finger took down the £50,000 Super High Roller for £821,000. Phil Hellmuth and Vanessa Selbst also collected titles, and with so many big names capturing the spotlight, it was easy to overlook the conclusion of the UKIPT London Main Event.

That tournament attracted 747 entries and created a prize pool of £724,590. After five days of play, 21-year-old Robbie Bull emerged victorious to capture the £113,405 first-place prize and become the third Scotsman in a row to win a UKIPT title (Ludovic Geilich won in Marbella and Alan Gold in Galway).

Bull began the final table sixth in chips, but he got off to a quick start. He ultimately made it to heads-up play against Irish Poker Open champ Ian Simpson.

Simpson began with a small lead over Bull, and the two opted to strike a deal. There was originally £53,475 in prize money between first and second place, but the two closed the gap. Simpson locked up £106,869.23, Bull received £103,405.77, and they played it out for the trophy and £10,000.

From there, Bull took over and pulled out to a huge chip lead. Simpson battled back, and after an hour of play held a 2-1 lead over Bull. After a break, Bull four-bet jammed with the {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Simpson called with the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The board ran out {j-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Bull’s flush gave him the double.

Minutes later, Simpson raised to 375,000 and Bull three-bet all in. Simpson called off with the {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}, and it was ahead of Bull’s {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. The {j-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop wasn’t very special, and while the {A-Diamonds} turn paired both players, Simpson’s kicker had him out in front. The {8-Diamonds} river actually gave Simpson two pair, but it was no good as Bull had spiked a flush to win the UKIPT London Main Event.

"It's a dream [to win] I've had for three or four years,” Bull told the PokerStars Blog after the win. “When I play a live event in the back of my mind there's ‘I might win it’ but now I feel like I'm dreaming and might wake up and find the UKIPT is next week.”

Phil Hellmuth Wins EPT London £2,000 Open Face Chinese Event

Nível 1 : 50/100, 0 ante
Phil Hellmuth won the EPT London £2,000 Open Face Chinese tournament.

The sudden appearance of Phil Hellmuth at the EPT London on Sunday came as quite a surprise to the railbirds considering the “Poker Brat” has only played a couple EPT events in the past. Hellmuth seemed to be in a particularly good mood, and it paid off when he entered and ultimately won the EPT London £2,000 Open Face Chinese tournament, which attracted 21 runners and created a prize pool of £42,680.

Joining Hellmuth in the tournament were well-known pros Dan O’Brien, Barry Greenstein, Jason Mercier and Daniel Weinman, just to name a few. The £15,800 first-place prize was pittance to a man that has won nearly $18 million in lifetime earnings, but Hellmuth was no doubt pleased to earn his first cash and title at a Europe-based EPT event.
