Stewart Ross of The Talbot in Worcester was pleased to accept his prize of free beer for a year from Carlsberg this week!

Stewart is the 50,000 player to register in the Redtooth Poker League and had no idea of the prize until contacted. To celebrate the event, Lee Sharpe who played for Manchester United and England came along and played in the tournament alongside JP Round from Carlsberg and also Jon Young, editor of World Poker Tour Magazine.

There were bounties on the head of each guest player and it wasn’t too long before each player was knocked out with the winners taking home a Carlsberg Poker table, a gallon of beer and a years subscription to WPT magazine.

This is Stewart Ross of The Talbot in Worcester receiving his free year of beer from Carlsberg as his prize for becoming the 50,000th registered player in the Redtooth Poker League!

The Redtooth Tavern online poker league is proving to be a success with 74 players in it’s first league game.
The top 10 players of the league will win seats into live regional finals playing it out for a share of the £1,000 prizepool and a chance to qualify into the National Final next year.
