Victoria Coren Mitchell and the team from Dusk till Dawn were the stars of the British Poker Awards taking home six awards at the Hippodrome in London.

Victoria Coren Mitchell, and the team at Dusk till Dawn (DTD), are the undisputed masters of British Poker after winning six awards in London’s Hippodrome last night.

Coren Mitchell was one of three players nominated for three awards. She won the lot: Best Social Media User, Poker Personality of the Year and Performance of the Year. Her achievement means she now ties with Sam Trickett as the most successful recipient of BPA’s with six each. Trickett didn’t receive a single nomination this year.

On the poker front it’s been a big year for Coren Mitchell. She became the first two-time European Poker Tour (EPT) Main Event champion after winning the Season 10 San Remo Main Event, and then she shocked everyone by walking away from her PokerStars contract over a values clash.

“Three times as many awards as Eddie Redmayne (if anyone asks I am wearing TK Maxx).” Tweeted Victorious Coren Mitchell.

Dusk till Dawn (DTD) also got the opportunity to smudge fingerprints over three awards. They maintained their 100% consistency by picking up the Best Live Cardroom Award; they had a hand in the Best Tournament Award for the partypoker sponsored WPT500 event, and Rob Yong was honored for his outstanding contribution to the growth of poker.

DTD has been the breeding ground for a vast number of top British pros. One of their best grassroots to professional circuit success stories belongs to Simon Deadman. This is where he learned his trade – a trade that saw him pick up two awards for Breakout Player of the Year and Live Tournament Player of the Year.
