Wed, 01 Nov 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Ludovic Geilich warmed up for the 888poker LIVE Coventry Main Event in style by taking down the 2,000 High Roller for 40,870. Geilich came out on top of a 70-strong field, which was packed with the most recognizable names in British poker, and helped himself to the lion’s share of the 132,160 prize pool.

Gelich’s Coventry victory marks the second time in 2023 that the popular Scotsman has come out on top in a major live event. He won the 1,000 GUKPT Edinburgh Main Event in May for 79,590, and it would take a brace person to bet against Geilich completing a hat trick when he enters one of the final two flights of the 888poker LIVE Coventry Main Event.

Yiannis Liperis has proven throughout his career to be a talented player on any day. But give him the cards, the chip lead, and the ability to run over the table, and it becomes almost an unfair fight. Thats exactly what happened today at the final table of the 888poker LIVE Coventry Main Event as the Cyprus-born, Birmingham-based poker pro went on the run of a lifetime.

Liperis built up a massive chip lead at the final table on his way to capturing the title and 120,000 first prize after a five-way deal, defeating Charles Chattha in a brief heads-up clash. Liperis already had more than $3 million in live winnings in a career that has cashes going back to 2009, but for someone who has been playing for so long, he recognizes how rare days like this really are and what an accomplishment winning a tournament like this is.
