Goliath X Set To Be The Biggest Goliath Ever

Level 5 : 200/300, 300 ante
GUKPT

Grosvenor Poker expects the tenth edition of the Goliath tournament to be the biggest on record with an estimated prize pool weighing in at £1 million! This August sees the Goliath return to a live setting after two years of online action, and Grosvenor Poker is pulling out all the stops to make it epic.

There are eight starting flights in total between August 27 and September 2, two of which have a turbo blind structure. Each flight costs £150 to enter (£120+£30) and play lasts for 16 levels. The first eight levels last 30-minutes with the second eight spanning 40-minutes; the turbo flights have 20-minute blinds throughout.

Players who make it through any of the flights return to the action at the Grosvenor Casino at the Coventry Building Society Arena on August 3. Here, the plan is to play another 16x 40-minute levels or until only four tables remain.

Day 3 commences at 11:00 a.m. on August 4 and continues until one player remains, the slayer of the Goliath.

Anandakum Wins One

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

Vinothan Anandakum raised to 1,000 from under the gun, Ben Maregedze called from the next seat, as did three more players before the flop {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} fell. The action folded around and Anandakum bet 2,200, which only Maregedze called.
Both players checked on the {j-Clubs} turn, and Anandakum's 2,200 bet on the {6-Diamonds} river was enough to win the pot uncontested.
