Inaugural UK Season Concludes Where It All Began
The PartyPoker Tour is set to bring its debut UK season to a dramatic close this December as the tour makes its return to London for one last stop at Genting Casino Stratford, running December 15 to 21.
After a breakout first year featuring packed fields and thrilling finishes across Manchester, Glasgow, and Birmingham, the tour now circles back to Stratford — just steps from its launch venue at Aspers Casino Westfield — for a grand finale that promises to cap off an unforgettable season.
Breakout Season for a New UK Circuit
Since debuting in April, the PartyPoker Tour has quickly become a staple for mid-stakes grinders and aspiring pros alike. Each £500 Main Event has easily smashed its £100,000 guarantee, drawing strong turnouts and lively action from start to finish.
The tour has already produced four champions: Getnet Kassa kicked things off in London, Deniz Orhan followed up with a victory in Manchester, Zhen Zhen made history as the first woman to win a Main Event in Glasgow, and Tai Hoang claimed the latest title in Birmingham.
By the time the cards are in the air for the London finale, the tour is expected to have paid out more than £2 million in total prize money and attracted over 10,000 entries across the season.

London Finale Highlights
The upcoming London stop will feature a £500 Main Event (December 18–21) boasting a £100,000 guaranteed prize pool. It will be joined by several side events, including the £150 Mini PPT with £50,000 guaranteed (December 15–18), the £250 PLO Masters (£20,000 GTD, December 19–21), and a £1,000 High Roller taking place on December 21.
Online qualifiers are already underway on PartyPoker, with satellites starting from just £0.20, giving players of all bankrolls a shot at joining the finale. With multiple flights, mystery bounties, and turbo formats on the schedule, the action is set to be fast-paced and full of drama.
