He placed his balls on the chopping block, and now they are firmly back in his y-fronts.

It was a bold play to slap a £1 million guarantee on the side of the £1,100 Sky UK Poker Championships. It was a sweat. No doubt about that. But 813 entrants made sure everyone went home happy, especially Fraser Bellamy.

Bellamy is no stranger to the Dusk till Dawn (DTD) card room. He’s a regular face. In 2010, he beat the talented Jack Ellwood, in heads-up action, to take the £78,488 first prize in the £1,090 Monte Carlo. I guess he’s no stranger to the big money either.

He had over $300,000 in live tournament earnings before this win. He can double that after his £200,000 first prize performance. It’s the second time in succession that this title has found it’s way back to Sheffield after Alex Spencer won the event in 2014.
