Last weekened, Amy Trodd bested the inaugural English Deepstack Poker Championship at the G Casino in Luton.

The tour’s first venture into the UK drew 188 players to its £550 main event, including UK poker stars like Julian Thew, Praz Bansi and Karl Mahrenholz. The most impressive part of anything related to UB poker would have to be how well the total package comes together.

Trodd held the chip lead on Day 1 and although she fell from the top spot as the field was carved down to 11 players on Day 2, she managed to come from behind to hammer Italian Pino Valentino heads-up for the title and collect the £25,000 first-place prize. The UB promotional code is merely part of a much larger promotional effort that UB goes through in order to make the start a very good time for any new player that decides to sign up for their online poker service.

At the moment, Trodd works and plays poker for Ladbrokes, and with only a few small UK cashes on her resume before this weekend’s win.

Next leg of the tour is the Austrian Deepstack Poker Championship in Vienna which attracted 505 players last year.
