Our final kicked off with Adam Bamforth leading the way on 130,000 in chips with 2013 Vegas 100 member Alan Tate being the short stack with 24,000 in chips. Unfortunately Alan couldn’t make any inroads as he was eliminated in 10th place with Hannah Swales, also a short stack following Alan in 9th place. Paul Brandon was next to leave in 8th place with Patricia Cooper 7th, Christine Thompson 6th, Adam Bamforth 5th, David Carlisle 4th & Adam Reep 3rd. Adam’s elimination left Simon Baxter and Christian Cristobal to contest the day’s top prize, a contest that came to a swift end once Simon’s 8-4 and Christian’s 5-4 saw a 8-5-2 flop. The turn and river peeled off A-10 to crown Simon Baxter our new West Yorkshire champion.
