Two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Praz Bansi took down the GUKPT London title this weekend.

Bansi, who was actually the first ever main event winner in the first season of the tour back in 2007, earned £101,020 with the victory this time around.

The £1,500 buy-in event drew 245 players to London’s Victoria Casino creating a £367,500 prizepool.

The final table also included fellow Hit Squad member Karl Mahrenholz and GUKPT sponsored player Jeff Kimber, who broke the record for final table appearances on the GUKPT with six.

Banzi now has $2,587,356 in career live tournament earnings and sits 12th on England’s all time leading money winner’s list, just behind EPT founder John Duthie.

Next up for the GUKPT is a stop at the Grosvenor Casino Walsall April 24- May 1.
