Euro Poker News: UK Open Main Event Result

British pro Peter Gould has beaten 33 challengers, including his son Josh, to win the £2,500 no-limit hold'em main event at the National Poker League UK Open. He collected £32,500 for his victory.

Gould dramatically knocked his son out in fourth at the final table when they got all their chips in preflop, Peter holding 9 9 and Josh A 6. The flop of 9 4 3 gave Peter a substantial edge, although the 2on the turn gave Josh a gutshot-straight draw. However, the 10 on the river sealed Josh's fate and Peter went on to confront Patrik Selin heads up.

Gould had £186,900 in chips and Patrik Selin £153,100 going into their heads-up match, which lasted just six hands.

Selin made a £7,000 preflop raise with 10 5 and was met with a £20,000 reraise by Gould. Selin then moved all in and Gould called with A Q. The tournament would be decided by the fall of the five board cards.

They came K 8 7 2 8 and Gould was victorious with just ace high.

The final table result was:

1. Peter Gould (£32,500)
2. Patrik Selin (£20,250
3. Jeff Buffenbarger (£12,750)
4. Josh Gould (£8,500)
5. Jason Ho (£5,100)
6. Dieter Dijkstra (£3,400)
7. Lee Watts (£1,500)
8. Darren Woods (£1,000)

The National Poker League is being filmed for broadcast across the globe and features stops in London, Las Vegas, Monte Carlo, Manila, and Toronto.
