GUKPT Grand Final Returns to London with £1.2 Million in Total Guarantees
GUKPT Grand Final heads to London’s Victoria Casino November 19-29 with £1.2M across events including a £500K-guaranteed Main Event. Blackpool stop precedes it with over £500K guaranteed. Online satellites from £1 feed flexible Live Event Credit for any tournament.
SCCG Take — The non-expiring Live Event Credit system offers operators a retention tool that converts qualifiers into multi-event participants without date pressure.
The 2026 Grosvenor UK Poker Tour reaches its final stage with the Grand Final at The Victoria Casino in London. The festival runs from November 19-29 and carries £1.2 million in guarantees across multiple events. This follows the Blackpool leg from October 30 to November 8, which guarantees more than £500,000 including £250,000 for its Main Event, after the completion of the Leeds stop.
As reported by PokerNews, the London schedule includes a range of buy-ins and prize pools to close the season. The Champion of Champions event on November 18 falls outside the official Grand Final window and concludes The Victoria’s year-long Victoria Championships.
Grand Final Tournament Schedule
The £2,000 GUKPT Main Event holds a £500,000 guarantee. The first of three starting flights gets underway on Thursday, November 26, with another full flight and a turbo scheduled for the following day. Survivors return for Day 2 on Saturday before the tournament plays to a winner on Sunday, November 29.
Supporting events feature the £1,250 GUKPT Midi with a £250,000 guarantee and three starting flights plus a hyper turbo. The £2,500 High Roller carries £150,000 guaranteed and begins November 25. Additional tournaments include the £340 Mini Main and £560 GUKPT Cup with £50,000 guaranteed. PLO variants appear as a £1,000 High Roller and a £250 four-card event.
Online Qualification Routes
Entry is not limited to direct buy-ins. Grosvenor Poker runs online satellites from £1 that advance through £5 and £30 levels. These award Live Event Credit valued at £200, £300, £500 or £1,250. The credit applies to any GUKPT tournament, covers partial buy-ins with refund for the difference, and carries no expiry date. Redemption occurs at the casino cash desk.
The guarantees and feeder structure position the Grand Final as the tour’s largest offering of the year.
