Some of the big guns on the UK poker scene were out for blood at the GUKPT Grand Final this weekend, in hopes of capturing a six-figure paycheck. And two of those big boys met each other heads up for the title.
Triple Crown member Jake Cody was the chip leader heading into heads up play but Fabian Quoss was able to pick at Cody's chip stack and in the end, was able to capture all of the chips to become the GUKPT Grand Final Champion.
This is Quoss' second win on tour this season, Quoss picked up a German Championship of Poker (GCOP) tourney win back in August. Quoss also won the English Poker Open back in September of 2010.
For Cody, it's a third PTPR Score for the year. Cody is the defending WSOP 25K Heads Up Championship title holder ...
