The 2015 Grosvenor United Kingdom Poker Tour broke the live tournament attendance record for an event held outside Las Vegas. Finnish player Miikka Toikka earning the top prize. 

The Grosvenor United Kingdom Poker Tour (GUKPT) understands the utopian vision of the grassroots UK based poker player. Offer up a working class buy-in, stack the odds heavily against everyone, but create a first prize capable of carving credit cards to shards of nothingness.

The GUKPT Goliath is a monster. It gets bigger each year. This year was no exception. It was the largest live tournament ever held outside of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in the history of the sport. There were 2,764 unique players and 1,446 re-entries morphing into a field of 4,120 entrants.

The tournament carried a £250,000 guarantee. It hit £421,000. 470 players were paid a minimum of £250 each, and the winner walked away with £70,800.
