Our 2nd annual Poker Tournament was held at the Palace Hotel and Casino on the 12th of May.

Over 50 players took part and after 5 hours of play, Mark Handley emerged as the outright winner, bagging the first prize of a MacBook and a bottle of Krug Champagne, kindly donated by PokerStars . 

We raised an amazing £4,000 from the event, so a huge thank you to all who supported and attended the event, but in particular to PokerStars Helping Hands, the Palace Hotel & Casino and their staff and all those who sponsored the prizes on the night. Additional thanks to Dot Performance for the design of the invitations for the event. Finally, to 8th place, Dylan Coady who re-donated his prize back to the charity, so will be used for our Summer Ball event on the 1st of July.
