A big pot of 240,000 had brewed between Jose Maria Sanchez and Antonio Pena, with the board reading [invalid notations] for the full house, and he had sized the river perfectly as Pena had looked him up with A♦10♦.
Jose Maria Sanchez – 936,000 Antonio Pena – 115,000
The final day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow stop at Alea Casino went off with a bang on August 9, bringing to an end a fantastic week of poker.
After Robbie Bull sealed Main Event glory, Irish legend Dara O’Kearney secured victory in the £1,000 High Roller, while there were also wins for James McLean in the £250 PLO Masters Main Event, Raymond Peacock in the £250 Mystery Bounty, Craig Cadden in the £150 NLH Last Chance, and Dana Ameen in the £60 PLO 4/5/6 Double Board.
Robbie Bull Revels in Home-Soil £500 Main Event Win (£28,500)
Only 12 players returned for the final day of the £500 Main Event, where a huge £157,975 prize pool was gathered from a 355-runner field, with Lewis Henderson leading from Robbie Bull, and all eyes firmly set on the £28,500 first-place prize.
Henderson and Bull remained in the lead at the start of the final table, but Henderson would crash out in sixth. Bull was content to watch others hit the wall initially, but started to move through the gears when four remained.
After the exits of Jeff Cannon and Ben Crichton, the final showdown was between Edinburgh natives Bull and Abdul Mukit. A lengthy heads-up battle ensued, and Bull eventually went runner-runner to hit a one-card straight and end the contest.
Bull was delighted with the win, saying “It feels great, I’ve been playing poker in Scotland for 15 or 16 years and I haven’t won a trophy here! So to win one on home soil, with Glasgow on the trophy, feels extra special.
I was definitely playing for the win, the trophy meant quite a lot to me. I didn’t really feel any pressure so I was just able to play my game, and adjust appropriately to whatever strategy my stack-size dictated. I wasn’t playing to ladder.”
On his final opponent, Mukit, Bull said “It was a lot of small ball and small pots, I was surprised it took so long for us to be at risk. Abdul’s a really strong player. We’ve been playing cash and tournaments together for ten years, he’s from Edinburgh as well, we play all the time, he’s one of the most consistent tournament grinders in Scotland so it was a good battle, and was glad to win. I got lucky in the final hand and ran good in the all-ins for sure.”

The £1,000 High Roller 7-Max attracted a total of 47 entries, which created a £42,300 prize pool.
Author, podcast host, Paddy Power sponsored pro and all round poker legend Dara O’Kearney was a popular winner.
A three-way deal with David Anderson and Robert Welsh left only the destination of the final £3,000 of the prize pool, and the trophy, to be determined, and O’Kearney was the last player standing. The Irishman banked £11,550 after defeating Anderson heads-up, which follows his runner-up finish in the same event in London.

That concludes poker.pro‘s coverage of what has been a fantastic week of poker, thank you Glasgow for your hospitality!
The next stop on the PartyPoker Tour is in Castellon in Spain from October 5-11, see you there!
Robbie Bull has emerged triumphant at Alea Casino in the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, securing the trophy and a £28,500 payday after defeating Abdul Mukit heads-up in a hard fought battle, making him the last player standing in the 355-runner field.
Bull has long been established as one of the UK’s finest, and is currently ranked in the top 400 tournament players worldwide, with this victory adding to his already stellar resume of almost $1.5 million in cashes.
Despite being accustomed to competing at higher stakes, the win was savored by the Edinburgh native, with victory on home soil tasting all the sweeter.

Winner’s Reaction
“It feels great, I’ve been playing poker in Scotland for 15 or 16 years and I haven’t won a trophy here! So to win one on home soil, with Glasgow on the trophy, feels extra special.
I was definitely playing for the win, the trophy meant quite a lot to me. I didn’t really feel any pressure so I was just able to play my game, and adjust appropriately to whatever strategy my stack-size dictated. I wasn’t playing to ladder.”
On his final opponent, Mukit, Bull said “It was a lot of small ball and small pots, I was surprised it took so long for us to be at risk. Abdul’s a really strong player. We’ve been playing cash and tournaments together for ten years, he’s from Edinburgh as well, we play all the time, he’s one of the most consistent tournament grinders in Scotland so it was a good battle, and was glad to win. I got lucky in the final hand and ran good in the all-ins for sure.”
Bull confirmed he has his eyes on the PartyPoker Tour stops coming up in Spain, but his immediate plans are to head to EPT Barcelona. He will certainly do so in good form.
Final Day Recap
Lewis Henderson led the 12 players who returned for the final day, with Bull sitting in second, while Mukit, who also final tabled the Mini Main earlier in the week, was in the middle of the pack.

After a slow start, a flurry of successive knockouts reduced the field to the final table in rapid fashion. While Adam Green was in the tank after Henderson jammed the river, two knockouts at the other table occurred.
First, John Woods picked a poor time to jam light from the small blind, running into Joel Baxter’s ace-king. Despite hitting the front on the flop, Woods was sent to the rail when Baxter went runner-runner to make a wheel straight.
In the next hand, Mukit eliminated short-stack David Carson. Meanwhile, Green was still in the tank versus Henderson. He eventually called off with pocket queens for second pair, and suddenly there were only nine left.
Final Table Action
Henderson had maintained his start of day lead over Bull as the final table began, while Mukit was in the middle of the pack.
Baxter started off strong, making a flush against Ben Crichton, before Chris Hendry became the first casualty of the final table when he ran an inferior pocket pair into Henderson’s aces.
Matters started to go wrong for Henderson after he called off versus a three-bet jam from Mukit to see he was up against a better pair. A further confrontation between the duo resulted in Henderson’s demise in sixth, after he check-jammed the river with the nut flush blocker, but ran into Mukit’s set.
Bull had been relatively quiet while chaos ensued around him, but held in successive flips against Crichton and Mukit to double twice just before the second break, vaulting him into the lead.
Shortly after the return, Cannon’s run came to an end in fourth, after he jammed the button but ran into Mukit’s premium holding in the big blind.
Crichton had become the relative short-stack, and he had to settle for bronze after he got two-outered by Bull when holding pocket queens. Bull and Mukit were almost dead level at the start of heads-up play, and traded blows for over 50 hands before they could be separated, with Mukit holding a significant lead at one point.

Bull came back into it when his top pair held versus Mukit’s bottom pair and flush draw. After taking the lead, the champion went runner-runner to make a one-card straight while dominated, bringing the contest to an end and sending Bull the title.
The players shared a warm handshake, and Bull was left to celebrate a precious victory on home soil.

That concludes our coverage of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, although a recap of the final side event results will be provided tomorrow.
The PartyPoker Tour’s next stop is in Castellon in Spain from October 5-11, see you there!
Robbie Bull has emerged as the worthy champion in the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, defeating Abdul Mukit heads-up after a back and forth battle.
Bull will be taking £28,500 and the trophy back to Edinburgh.
Stay tuned for a recap of the day and an interview with the champion.
The players have been trading pots the first few hands of heads-up, with no significant change in the overall position, with the stacks of Abdul Mukit and Robbie Bull still pretty even.
Abdul Mukit jammed from the small blind with the covering stack, and Robbie Bull blew out his cheeks, said “Let’s paly for the win”, and called for his 3,530,000 total stack.
Robbie Bull: 8♣8♥ Abdul Mukit: A♣10♣
It was off to the races, and Mukit could not connect with the Q♠J♦3♦J♣5♣ runout.
The players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
Robbie Bull – 7,225,000 Abdul Mukit – 6,400,000 Jeff Cannon – 2,275,000 Ben Crichton – 1,850,000
Robbie Bull opened to 325,000 under the gun, and received a call from Ben Crichton in the next seat, before they both folded to a three-bet of 950,000 from Abdul Mukit in the big blind.
Abdul Mukit – 9,425,000 Ben Crichton – 4,000,000 Robbie Bull – 1,940,000
Lewis Henderson will not be adding a Main Event trophy to his existing haul of PartyPoker Tour silverware here in Glasgow.
With 700,000 in the middle on a board of 5♣4♣3♥J♣, Henderson check-called from the big blind versus a bet of 250,000 from Abdul Mukit in early position.
The 9♠ river completed the board, and Henderson checked once more. Mukit fired out a bet of 700,000, and after a good spell in the tank, Henderson check-jammed for 1,730,000.
Mukit went into the tank, but made the call. Henderson tabled A♣7♥ for air, with the ace of clubs flush blocker, and Mukit had J♥J♦ for top set.
Gary Swan and Jeff Cannon are discussing potential plans for their winnings, and apparently a new sofa might be on the cards for Spinks, while Cannon’s wife is angling for a paint job on the house.
A period of little substantive action, apart from Robbie Bull folding to a bet of 450,000 from Ben Crichton on the river on a board of 10♠6♥4♦4♠9♦, with 980,000 in the middle.
The current full chip counts are as follows:-
Lewis Henderson – 5,100,000 Robbie Bull – 2,900,000 Ben Crichton – 2,880,000 Joel Baxter – 2,725,000 Jeff Cannon – 2,200,000 Gary Swan – 1,450,000 Abdul Mukit – 685,000
In the next hand, with 800,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♠7♥3♠, in a button versus big blind spot between Jeff Cannon and Nicholas Scott, Scott checked to his opponent.
Cannon jammed with the covering stack, and Scott called off for his roughly 750,000 stack.
Nicholas Scott: A♠K♠ Jeff Cannon: J♦9♦
Scott was ahead with a flush draw to go with his better overcards versus the gutshot of Cannon, and while the 7♣ turn was a brick, Cannon drilled the 8♦ river.
Scott was stunned, and left the table looking heartbroken.
Ben Crichton opened to 125,000 from early position, and received calls from Lewis Henderson in middle position, Jeff Cannon in the cutoff, and Joel Baxter in the big blind.
The Q♠10♠7♠ flop was checked to Cannon, who slid out a bet of 200,000. Baxter called, before Crichton check-jammed with a bet of 865,000.
Cannon folded, but Baxter called.
Ben Crichton: K♥K♠ Joel Baxter: Q♥10♥
Crichton’s kings were behind Baxter’s two pair, but Crichton had the flush draw.
Instead, he binked the K♣ on the turn to leave Baxter dead, the 2♣ river completing the board.
Christopher Hendry jammed from early position for 740,000, and was looked up by Lewis Henderson in the cutoff.
Christopher Hendry: 10♣10♠ Lewis Henderson: A♠A♥
Hendry had run into the goods, and although the flop was sweaty to a certain extent for Henderson, he turned quads to leave Hendry dead on the A♣K♠Q♣A♦4♦ runout, and cement his chip lead.
Lewis Henderson – 5,175,000 Christopher Hendry – 0
With 250,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♣7♣6♣, Ben Crichton check-raised to 250,000 from the big blind, versus a bet of 50,000 from Joel Baxter in the cutoff.
Baxter called to see the 4♥ turn, where he called a bet of 400,000 from Crichton.
The 8♣ hit on the river, and Crichton check-called a bet of 450,000 from Baxter.
Crichton mucked when Baxter tabled A♣J♠ for the ace-high flush.
Lewis Henderson opened to 100,000 from the button, and was faced with a three-bet to 350,000 from Adam Green in the small blind.
Henderson called to see the K♥9♣6♥ flop, where Green continued with a bet of 200,000, which failed to shake off Henderson.
The 4♥ hit on the turn, and Green checked. Henderson jammed with the covering stack, and Green called after an age in the tank, during which he secured a payjump.
Adam Green: Q♣Q♥ Lewis Henderson: K♦J♣
Henderson had outflopped Green, and the 5♠ river was a brick.
Abdul Mukit jammed from the small blind, and David Carson called off for his roughly 750,000 stack in the big blind.
David Carson: A♠K♦ Abdul Mukit: J♣10♦
Carson had woken up with a premium, and looked to be heading for a double-up after the 9♠3♦3♣ flop and 8♥ turn, although the same brought Mukit a wrap draw.
However the J♦ hit on the river, sending Carson to the rail.
A cagey start to proceedings, with no significant action in the first six hands at either table.
John Woods and Abdul Mukit have failed to appear at Table 9 thus far, leading to a slightly strange table dynamic for the players at that table. Hopefully it is simply traffic issues!
Lewis Henderson is a perennial side event winner on the PartyPoker Tour, having picked up no fewer than six trophies since its inception in 2025.
However, Mini Main Event and Main Event silverware has eluded him, and Henderson returns to the Alea Casino at 3 p.m. on August 9 at the head of a field of 12 players in the record-breaking Glasgow Main Event, hoping to finally land the marquee trophy.
Henderson (3,890,000) holds a reasonable lead over Robbie Bull (2,800,000), while there is a further gap to Ben Crichton (1,840,000) in third.

Plenty of other quality players remain in the mix for the £28,500 first-place prize, including Joel Baxter (1,120,000) and Abdul Mukit (1,150,000), who final tabled the Mini Main.

poker.pro will be on the floor from 3 p.m., bringing you full coverage of what is sure to be a thrilling finale to the PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, so stay tuned!
The penultimate day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow was action-packed, as the £500 Main Event was reduced to its final 12 competitors, two starting flights of the PLO Masters were completed, and Kieran Fleming and Alex Gleeson lifted side event trophies.
Lewis Henderson Leads Final Twelve in £500 Main Event
A total of 93 players qualified for Day 2 from 355 entries, with a record-breaking prize pool of £157,975 creating a £28,500 first-place prize.
PartyPoker Tour ambassador Daniel Garcia led the way at the start of play, ahead of David Gallagher and Nicholas Scott, with 55 places to be paid, and a minimum cash worth £1,000.

The knockouts came at a frantic pace from the outset. Henderson got off to a hot start when he won the classic race to bust Dean Lyall, while players such as Dara O’Kearney and Richard Kellett suffered early exits, Kellett when he ran ace-king into a duo of pocket queens.
The bubble came in the second session, and James Rooney was the unfortunate player to leave empty handed, when he was forced all-in from the big blind and missed the runout. Mark Johnston, Andrew Hawksby and Paul Lennon were among those who bowed out with a minimum cash, while PartyPoker Tour ambassador Rebecca Hardisty departed in heartbreaking fashion to Gallagher.
Daniel Gormley vaulted into the chip lead when he pulled a big blind special to secure a double knockout, before Robbie Bull went runner-runner to survive. Bull would take full advantage of his good fortune, ending the day second in chips.

Evan Docherty was the first player to depart when the field was reduced to three tables, in a brutal aces versus kings cooler against Abdul Mukit. Henderson busted Darren Harbinson to move up the standings, and Gormley ended Garcia’s run in 21st.
The players will return at 3 p.m. on August 9 for the final showdown, with a £2,050 payday guaranteed, and poker.pro will have full coverage of the finale.

A full recap of the action in Day 2 will follow tomorrow, while our coverage of the final day will kick off at 3 p.m., so stay tuned to poker.pro for what is sure to be a thrilling finale to the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event.
On a completed board of 9♦5♠3♣4♠K♣, with 400,000 in the middle, Robbie Bull checked from the big blind to Gary Swan under the gun, who slid out a bet of 125,000.
Daniel Gormley called on the button, before Bull check-raised to 800,000.
Swan folded after a spell in the tank, and after an even bigger stint of thought, Gormley called.
Bull tabled A♣2♣ for the wheel straight, and Gormley showed 10♠9♠, leaving Gormley with crumbs.
Shortly after, Gormley was all-in from under the gun for 30,000, and received calls from Adam Green and Jeff Cannon in the blinds.
The active players checked down the K♠9♣7♦8♥9♦ runout to the river, where Cannon folded to a bet of 40,000 from Green.
Green tabled 10♥9♥ for trip nines, and that was good versus Gormley’s Q♥Q♠.
With 800,000 in the middle on a board of 8♠7♣5♠Q♠K♦, Robbie Bull jammed for 515,000 over a bet of 320,000 from Daniel Gormley, who made up the difference.
Bull tabled A♠9♠ for the nut flush, and Gormley had the second nuts with K♠2♠ in a pure cooler.
Abdul Mukit opened to 50,000 from early position, and received a call from Ben Crichton in the small blind, before Evan Docherty three-bet jammed from the big blind for 265,000.
Mukit called, and Crichton folded.
Evan Docherty: K♦K♣ Abdult Mukit: A♠A♦
It was a brutal cooler, and there was no escape for Docherty on the 6♥5♦3♠A♥2♥ runout.
Lewis Henderson is hunting his second trophy of the week after a win in the Sviten tournament, and here he defended the big blind versus a raise to 35,000 from Matthew Wharrie in the small blind,
Wharrie continued with a bet of 35,000 on the Q♣9♥7♣ flop, which failed to dispose of Henderson.
On the 5♦ turn, Wharrie check-folded versus a bet of 150,000 from Henderson.
Lewis Henderson – 1,110,000 Matthew Wharrie – 230,000
In a battle of two big stacks, Gary Swan opened to 24,000 from the cutoff, and was met with a three-bet to 70,000 from Joel Baxter on the button.
Swan thought for a brief period, before four-betting to 150,000. Baxter called, and the flop rolled off J♠7♠5♣, where Baxter called a continuation bet of 80,000 from Swan.
That was the end of the action, as the 9♥ turn and Q♥ river were checked through.
Swan tabled K♣K♦, and Baxter nodded and mucked, sending Swan over the one million mark.
Paul Lennon, Ross Whitlaw, Martin Byrne, David Dyson and Chris Farragher have all met their maker in the £500 Main Event, with the field now reduced to 37 players.
See the ‘Results’ Tab above for the full list of eliminations thus far.
With 68,000 in the middle on a flop of A♦10♦10♣, Allan Nesbitt and Niall Farrell knuckled their options to see the 4♣ turn, where Nesbitt led out with a bet of 35,000.
Farrell called to see the K♠ river, where Nesbitt check-folded versus a bet of 65,000 from Farrell.
Nicholas Scott sits atop the standings at the second break, with Daniel Garcia and Edoardo Mancinelli in hot pursuit, with the top counts as follows:-
Nicholas Scott – 950,000 Daniel Garcia – 855,000 Edoardo Mancinelli – 772,000 Joel Baxter – 750,000 Lewis Henderson – 700,000 Niall Farrell – 630,000 Allan Nesbitt – 595,000
Andrew Hawksby, Michael McGee and Cameron Williamson have all seen their runs come to an end.
On the bubble, Derek Morton was all-in from the button for 151,000 and at risk against Martin Byrne in the big blind.
Derek Morton: A♣A♠ Martin Byrne: K♦5♠
Morton had the goods, and there was no sweat on the 10♣6♦3♥8♣3♣ runout.
In the next hand, James Rooney’s final 3,000 was forced into the middle from the big blind. Nadeem Abbas limped from middle position, and Stuart McNally followed suit in the small blind.
On the K♣8♦2♣ flop, McNally check-folded versus a bet of 20,000 from Abbas.
James Rooney: J♥4♣ Nadeem Abbas: A♣K♥
Rooney needed a miracle, and it did not arrive on the 2♠2♥ runout.
At the same time, at another table, with 43,000 in the middle on a board of K♥3♥8♦3♠9♥, Ramlal Basdeo was all-in for 50,000, and at risk against Kyle Swan.
Swan had A♥5♥ for the nut flush, but Basdeo had better with 8♥8♣ for the full house.
As such, Rooney was the unfortunate bubble boy in the £500 Main Event.
Derek Morton – 322,000 Martin Byrne – 316,000 Nadeem Abbas – 185,000 Ramlal Basdeo – 163,000 Kyle Swan – 126,000 James Rooney – 0
Bernard McGinlay opened to 12,000 from middle position, and called a three-bet jam to 57,000 from Abdul Mukit in the small blind.
Abdul Mukit: A♥Q♦ Bernard McGinlay: A♠J♦
Mukit had McGinlay pipped, and his better kicker played on the 8♥5♥3♣3♥4♣ runout.
Shortly after, with 60,000 in the middle on a board of K♦J♠9♠, Johnny Kelly slid out a bet of 25,000, and was met with a jam from Mukit for 140,000. Allan Nesbitt called, and Kelly folded.
Abdul Mukit: 9♦9♣ Allan Nesbitt: K♠10♠
It was a set versus top pair and a gutshot, and although the 10♥ turn brought Nesbitt additional outs, the 7♦ river was a brick.
Ka Pun, John Burke and Alex Gleeson busted at other tables to bring the bubble ever closer.
Jamie Geraghty opened to 16,000 from the button, and John Clements defended the big blind.
On the J♦8♥5♠ flop, Clements check-called versus a bet of 15,000 from Geraghty.
The same pattern followed on the 4♣ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 40,000 from Geraghty.
The K♠ river was checked through, and Clements mucked with frustration when Geraghty tabled K♥3♥.
“Lucky river”, lamented Clements. “Lucky river indeed”, said Geraghty as he raked in the pot.
2025 Manchester Main Event winner Deniz Orhan has fallen, along with Robert Robb and David Fleming to bring the bubble ever closer, with 55 places set to secure a £1,000 minimum cash.
Lisa Ferris was getting up out of her chair, and her 85,000 stack was being passed to Mark Swift, after her 6♠6♦ ran into Swift’s J♣J♥, with the board reading Q♠10♥8♣5♠2♥.
None of Daniyaal Hussain, Patrick Murphy, Killian O’Brien, Nicholas Swann and Kyle Scott will be getting their hands on the Main Event trophy in Glasgow.
The following players are sitting pretty at the top of the standings as the first break approaches:-
David Gallagher – 690,000 Nicholas Scott – 640,000 Gary Swan – 635,000 Laurynas Jakutis – 530,000 Chris Jennings – 467,000 Joel Baxter – 462,000 Lewis Henderson – 460,000 Edoardo Mancinelli – 450,000 John Woods – 430,000
Dara O’Kearney, Craig Conway, James O’Brien, Martin Byrne, Kieran Fleming, Pamela Cairney, David Jackson, Steven Sharpe, Kieran McLean, Gaoyang Yang and Sam Acheampong have all hit the wall in Day 2 before the money.
Dylan Thomson opened to 8,000 under the gun, and received calls from Robert Robb in the next seat, and John Burke and Robbie Bull in the blinds.
Action was checked to Robb on the 6♦5♣4♠ flop, who fired out a bet of 8,000.
Only Bull folded, and the 4♦ hit on the turn. Action was again checked to Robb, who double-barreled with a bet of 17,000, leading to a call from Burke and fold from Thomson.
The 6♥ river completed the board, and Burke checked once more. Robb emptied the clip with an all-in bet of 170,000, and Burke was sent into the tank.
After about two minutes of thought, looking pained with around 151,000 behind, Burke folded. Robb proudly windmilled K♣Q♥ into the middle, and raked in a big pot.
Johnny Kelly recounted a crazy hand from Table 1 which led to the exit of Richard Kellett.
Kelly opened under the gun with queens, and was met with a three-bet to 30,000 from Lewis Henderson. Kellett four-bet jammed for 75,000 with ace-king, before Bernard McGinlay cold five-bet jammed for around 230,000 from the big blind.
Kelly called, but Henderson got out of the way.
McGinlay also had pocket queens, and Kellett missed the runout, leading to his departure.
Johnny Kelly – 285,000 Bernard McGinley – 286,000 Richard Kellett – 0

That concludes our substantive coverage for today, but be sure to join poker.pro from 4 p.m. on August 8 for Day 2 of the Main Event, while a summary of the action today will be provided before that.
A big pot of 240,000 had brewed between Jose Maria Sanchez and Antonio Pena, with the board reading [invalid notations] for the full house, and he had sized the river perfectly as Pena had looked him up with A♦10♦.
Jose Maria Sanchez – 936,000 Antonio Pena – 115,000
Ayrshire native Jack McMullan produced a dominant final table performance to emerge as the last player standing in the record-breaking 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Mini Main Event, securing the trophy and a £13,200 payday after a quick-fire five-hour shootout.
McMullan caught heat early, and only relinquished the lead for brief periods to Laurence Welch at the point of a three-way deal, and Oliver Hutchins shortly after. The agreement between McMullan (£10,200), Welch (£10,550), a £30 satellite qualifier, and Hutchins (£10,000) left only the destination of the trophy, and the final £3,000 of the prize pool, to be determined.
McMullan would emerge as the victor, securing a career-best tournament score for the Scot, normally found at the cash tables.

Winner’s Reaction
“Feels brilliant, it was a great day. I’ve not really played too many live tournaments, so thrilled, an amazing day. I play a couple of times a week, cash, and it’s great the Alea are getting these big tournaments coming, really fun, so yeh I’ll definitely be playing more!
I’ve been playing since I was 18, it’s my main hobby. There were some really good players at the final table today, so I was glad certain players busted. Oli’s a great player, so really pleased to win. Once the stacks evened out the deal made sense.”
Final Table Recap
A record-breaking field of 701 entries created a £87,625 prize pool, far in excess of the £59,000 gathered last year, and Hutchins started the day with the chip lead ahead of McMullan.

The champion set out his intentions early when he jammed the river on Max Sinclair. In the next hand, Sinclair three-bet jammed light from the big blind, and cracked Craig McCombe’s kings. McCombe was left with crumbs, and was the first casualty of the day shortly after, busting to Sinclair.
McMullan caught Sinclair bluffing, before the winner doubled short-stack Mark Johnston.
PartyPoker Tour ambassador, The Hendon Mob founder, and poker legend Joe Beevers had presumably been card dead, and although he got it in good versus McMullan, the champion’s momentum could not be stopped, ending ‘The Elegance’s run in fifth.
Callum Wallace was next to go in a button versus big blind spot, again against McMullan, who now held a significant lead.
That gave Welch the lead when the deal was discussed, and the highest sum banked. However, he departed in third after McMullan came from behind in a battle of the blinds.

Heads-up, Hutchins spiked a river to make a one-card flush to survive, but McMullan could not be denied, and took the title after going runner-runner to make a straight against Hutchins’ pair.

(*Denotes ICM deal)
That concludes our coverage for today, but be sure to tune back into poker.pro tomorrow for the summary of today’s side events and our coverage of Day 1b of the Main Event, kicking off at noon.
Jack McMullan has emerged as a worthy champion in the £150 Mini Main Event in Glasgow, banking £13,200 and the trophy after defeating Oliver Hutchins heads-up, following a three-way ICM deal.
Stay tuned for a recap of the day and an interview with the winner.
Oliver Hutchins completed in the small blind, and Jack McMullan knuckled his option.
On the Q♥6♠4♦ flop, Hutchins led out with a bet of 500,000, and McMullan called.
The K♠ hit on the turn, and Hutchins double-barreled with a bet of 1,000,000, which failed to shake off McMullan.
The 9♠ river completed the board. Hutchins check-called in the face of a bet of 1,500,000 from his foe, and mucked when McMullan tabled K♣5♣ for top pair.
Jack McMullan – 12,300,000 Oliver Hutchins – 9,500,000
Oliver Hutchins was all-in for 5,375,000 and at risk against Jack McMullan.
Oliver Hutchins: A♣3♦ Jack McMullan: 4♥4♦
Hutchins needed help with a solitary overcard, and looked in bigger trouble when McMullan turned a set, but Hutchins found a one-card flush on the river to survive on the K♠J♣9♣4♣2♣ runout.
McMullan let out a yelp of pain when the river hit.
Oliver Hutchins – 11,500,000 Jack McMullan – 6,300,000
After the stacks have evened out following Laurence Welch catching some heat, a three-way ICM deal has been quickly agreed by the players, leaving £3,000 and the trophy to play for.
The stacks at the time of the deal and agreement reached are set out below:-
Laurence Welch – 10,550,000 (£10,550) Jack McMullan – 9,150,000 (£10,200) Oliver Hutchins – 8,325,000 (£10,000)
Jack McMullan opened to 400,000 from the button, and called a three-bet jam of 900,000 from Max Sinclair in the big blind.
Max Sinclair: A♥J♣ Jack McMullan: Q♣6♥
Sinclair was ahead, and the 7♥3♥2♦ flop and 10♠ turn were clear, but the Q♦ hit on the river to send Sinclair to the rail, and increase McMullan’s chip lead.
In the next hand however, McMullan lost a blinds battle to Oliver Hutchins with ace-nine against ace-queen, on a queen-high board.
In the next orbit, Hutchins limped from the small blind, and called a raise to 600,000 from McMullan.
Hutchins check-called a bet of 400,000 from McMullan on the A♣7♣3♦ flop.
The K♦ turn was checked to the Q♣ river, where Hutchins check-called a bet of 800,000 from his opponent.
Hutchins mucked when McMullan tabled A♦J♠.
In the next hand, with 2,800,000 in the middle on 10♦6♣5♠7♦3♠, McMullan check-folded versus a bet of 2,000,000 from Hutchins.
Jack McMullan – 10,450,000 Oliver Hutchins – 7,600,000 Max Sinclair – 0
With 1,500,000 in the middle on a board of 10♠8♣4♣4♥7♠, Jack McMullan fired out a bet of 1,1,00,000 from the big blind, forcing a fold from Callum Wallace.
Jack McMullan – 6,800,000 Callum Wallace – 5,050,000
With 800,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♠10♣3♣, Jack McMullan check-called from the big blind in the face of a bet of 250,000 from Max Sinclair in early position.
The J♦ turn was checked to the A♣ river, where McMullan jammed with the covering stack, and Sinclair folded after a spell in the tank.
In the next hand, Craig McCairns opened to 250,000 from the cutoff, and Sinclair three-bet jammed 1,075,000 from the big blind, receiving a snap-call from McCairns.
Max Sinclair: 7♣4♣ Craig McCairns: K♥K♦
Sinclair had run into a monster, but he went runner-runner for the flush to survive on the Q♦3♥3♣8♣A♣ runout.

The highlight of Day 4 of the PartyPoker Tour Glasgow is the final day of the record-breaking £150 Mini Main Event, with Oliver Hutchins (6,330,000) leading the final nine hopefuls, and in pole position to take the £16,250 reserved for the champion, while the £500 buy-in, £100,000 guaranteed Main Event gets underway, with Day 1a kicking off at 2 p.m.
In the Mini Main Event, Hutchins leads from Jack McMullan (4,700,000) and Callum Wallace (3,630,000), while PartyPoker Tour ambassador Joe Beevers (3,080,000) is still in the mix, and Irish Open final tablist Mark Johnston (1,025,000) is the relative short-stack.

It was another thrilling day of poker action on August 5 at the Alea Casino, Glasgow, as Day 3 of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow saw the final table of the £150 Mini Main Event set, and James McAulay and Sharaz Moad become the latest PartyPoker Tour champions.
£150 Mini Main Event Day 2
A record-breaking field of 701 entries created a huge £87,625 prize pool, and 105 players returned for the penultimate day with David Doherty in the lead, and a £300 payday secured.
The knockouts came at a rapid pace, as players such as Jason McDonald and Marc Brown suffered early exits, while reigning Glasgow Main Event champion Zhen Zhen also came unstuck.
Andrew Hawksby vaulted into a massive lead when he was on the right side of a huge aces versus kings cooler against fellow big stack Brian Etheridge.

The field continued to be thinned in rapid fashion, and by the second break three tables were left, with Hawksby joined by Mark Johnston at the top of the standings, with Hutchins not far behind.
Hutchins was left with dust after he doubled David Mackie, but rallied to mount an epic comeback. First, he pipped Vladyslaw Mudryk to dispose of the Ukrainian, before he picked up kings to double against Edoardo Mancinelli’s jacks.
Then, in a three-way all-in scenario, Hutchins made quad sevens to overcome Steven Queen’s ace-king and Callum Reid’s pocket queens.
Max Sinclair secured a crucial triple-up in a hand where Craig McCairns busted Niall Farrell in the side pot in eleventh, and the final table was set when Hawksby exited to Hutchins with a dominated ace.
The players will return at 4 p.m. on August 6 for the final table, all with their eyes firmly set on the £16,250 first-place prize, with the seat draw as follows:-

A fuller recap of the day will follow in the morning. The final day kicks off at 4 p.m. on August 6, and the players will play 3 more hands at the current level, and 18 hands per level will be completed at the final table.
That concludes our substantive coverage for the day, but be sure to join us at poker.pro from 4 p.m. on August 6 for the thrilling finale to the £150 Mini Main Event.
Craig McCairns opened to 200,000 from the cutoff, before Niall Farrell three-bet jammed for around 1,380,000 from the small blind.
Max Sinclair was in the big blind, and he moved all-in for 775,000. McCairns thought for a period, but made the call, creating a three-way all-in scenario.
Max Sinclair: Q♣9♣ Niall Farrell: 6♦6♣ Craig McCairns: 9♠9♦
McCairns looked in good shape for a double knockout, but Sinclair went in front on the Q♥10♦5♠ flop, the A♠ turn and 2♥ river confirming his triple-up.
Max Sinclair opened to 175,000 under the gun, and received a call from Callum Wallace in the next seat, before Brian Etheridge three-bet jammed for around 1,800,000 from the big blind.
Sinclair folded, but Wallace made a quick call.
Brian Etheridge: A♠J♠ Callum Wallace: A♥K♥
Etheridge was crushed, and there was no escape on the K♣J♣3♦9♠8♠ runout.
Callum Wallace – 5,300,000 Max Sinclair – 1,000,000 Brian Etheridge – 0
Steven Queen moved all in for 670,000 from early position, and was called by Oliver Hutchins, before Callum Reid moved all-in for around 640,000 from the button, creating a three-way all-in scenario.
Callum Reid: Q♠Q♣ Steven Queen A♦K♠ Oliver Hutchins: 7♥7♦
Reid looked to be heading for a triple-up, but Hutchins found a set on the flop, and rivered quads, on the K♥9♣7♠10♦7♣ runout, much to the table’s astonishment.
Hutchins has went on an absolute tear, spinning up a 50,000 stack to over 5,000,000 in about 40 minutes.
Oliver Hutchins – 5,250,000 Steven Queen – 0 Callum Reid – 0
A total of 15 players qualified from Day 1d, with Chris Jennings (317,000) leading the way from Laurynas Jakutis (254,000) and Darren Harbinson (250,000), while PartyPoker Tour ambassador Sam Acheampong (94,000) also found a bag.

That concludes our substantive coverage for today, but be sure to join poker.pro from 4 p.m. on August 8 for Day 2 of the Main Event, while a summary of the action today will be provided before that.
PartyPoker Tour ambassador Rebecca Hardisty tops the standings in Day 1b of the Main Event, as the players are about to be sent on their third break shortly.
Rebecca Hardisty – 370,000 Johnny Kelly – 355,000 Gary Swan – 330,000 John Woods – 306,000 Joel Baxter – 300,000
Day 1b is approaching the Day 2 cutoff point, after the recent exits of Graeme Reid, Michael Breen, Dean Hutchinson, Peter Bruin and David Jackson.
William Henderson was getting up out of his chair, and a big pot was being shipped to Johnny Kelly, who had Q♥Q♣ on a board of 10♥6♠4♦J♥J♠, with Henderson holding 9♦8♣.
Alex Gleeson opened to 9,000 from early position, and received a call from Johnny Kelly in middle position, and Darren Harbinson on the button.
On the 5♠4♦2♦ flop, Gleeson checked to Kelly, who fired out a bet of 20,000. Harbinson jammed for around 82,000, Gleeson folded, and Kelly made a quick call.
Darren Harbinson: 10♠10♦ Johnny Kelly: K♥K♠
Harbinson’s overpair was crushed, and there was no two-outer on the J♣J♦ runout.
Johnny Kelly – 220,000 Alex Gleeson – 85,000 Darren Harbinson – 0
With 33,000 in the middle on a board of A♠A♣Q♥7♣10♠, Michael Breen was all-in with the covering stack, and Steven Keay was in the tank, with 30,200 behind.
After around a minute, Keay made the call. Breen tabled A♥10♥ for two pair, and Keay tapped the table and flipped K♠K♥ as he departed.
Natalie Bromley was all-in for 27,000 and at risk against Darren Harbinson.
Natalie Bromley: Q♦Q♣ Darren Harbinson: 10♣10♥
Bromley looked in great shape, but had a bad feeling. “I always bust with queens.”
Sure enough, the ten was in the window on the 10♦6♠3♦ flop, and there was no recovery for Bromley on the A♠5♦ remaining runout.
Harbinson is on fire at the moment, having lifted the trophy in the Summer in Dublin Irish Poker Tour Main Event, and The Hendon Mob Championship in Nottingham, in July alone.

A total of 17 players are seated for the start of play in the PLO Masters Main Event Day 1a, with late registration open until the start of Level 10, and two further starting flights are scheduled for 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. on August 8.
Niall Farrell opened to 2,300 from the button, and Andrew Mackenzie defended the big blind.
On the J♥10♦8♥ flop, Mackenzie check-folded versus a continuation bet of 1,500.
In the next hand, Farrell opened to 2,200 from the cutoff, and Peter Bruin defended.
Bruin check-called a bet of 2,000 from Farrell on the 10♠4♠2♦ flop, before the 5♦ turn was checked to the 10♥ river.
Bruin led out with a bet of 4,000, and Farrell folded after a brief period of thought, saying “For the record, I think you’re bluffing, but I can’t beat some bluffs either. If I had king-high, I call.”

Day 1a of the £250 PLO Masters Main Event kicks off at 5 p.m., with JJ Hazan keen to defend his title.
Players will sit down to a 50,000 starting stack, with the clock set to 30-minute levels. Late registration remains open until the start of Level 10, with 15% of the field scheduled to qualify for Day 2.
Day 1b and turbo flight Day 1c take place at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. on August 8 respectively, with Day 2 at 3 p.m. on August 9.
Daniel Gormley tops the standings as the players are about to be sent on their second break of the day, with the top stacks as follows:-
Daniel Gormley – 198,000 Joel Baxter – 175,000 Stuart McNally – 162,000 Andrew Mackenzie – 158,000 James McAulay – 148,000 Jamie Geraghty – 138,000 Matthew Wharrie – 135,000
Some big names are in the Day 1b field, including Niall Farrell (50,000), Sam Acheampong (17,000), Kevin Frame (55,500), Rich Kellett (18,500), Jack Hardcastle (42,000) and Darren Harbinson (64,000).

Level 5:
300/600 (600)
Entries:
90/110
Prizes:
£100,000
With 7,000 in the middle on a completed board of K♦6♠3♥2♦7♦, Alan Hadden had fired out a bet of 6,500 from under the gun, and was met with a raise to 32,500 from Stephen Docherty in middle position.
Hadden, with 7,700 behind, was in the blender contemplating the decision, and talking himself through the hand.
After about two minutes Docherty asked “You have a king?”, and some more chatter ensued between the pair, to the point where Docherty admitted he had it.
Another 90 seconds went by before another player called the clock, and as the floor came over, Hadden folded.
Pamela Cairney limped from early position, and Deniz Orhan followed suit in the next seat, before Paul Leckey raised to 1,800 from the hijack.
Indrani Sarasingh called in the big blind, and Cairney made up the difference. Orhan went for a three-bet to 14,200, and all three of his opponents folded, picking up some nice dead money.
Orhan showed J♦J♣.
Deniz Orhan – 56,000 Paul Leckey – 42,000 Pamela Cairney – 68,000 Indrani Sarasingh – 12,200

Level 4:
200/400 (400)
Entries:
82/97
Prizes:
£100,000
Ramlal Basdeo opened to 1,100 from the cutoff, and was called by Gordon Huntly and Luke Bird in the blinds.
The J♦7♠3♣ flop was checked to Basdeo, who fired out a bet of 2,100.
Only Bird called to see the 5♥ turn, where he check-called versus a bet of 4,000 from his foe.
Bird changed approach on the A♦ river, leading out with a bet of 3,000. Basdeo quickly called, and Bird announced “Sixes”, and mucked when Basdeo tabled J♥9♦ for second pair.

Level 3:
100/300 (300)
Entries:
57/62
Prizes:
£100,000
Ian Swan opened to 700 under the gun, and received calls from PartyPoker Tour ambassador Natalie Bromley in the next seat, Darren Harbinson on the button, and Stuart McNally in the small blind.
The K♥9♦6♦ flop was checked to the A♣ turn, where Swan fired out a bet of 1,500.
Only Harbinson called to see the 6♥ river, which was checked through.
Swan tabled Q♣9♣ for third pair, and Harbinson took the pot with A♥4♥.
Darren Harbinson – 45,000 Ian Swan – 64,000 Natalie Bromley – 50,000
With 24,000 in the middle on a board of A♠K♥4♦6♣, Daniel Gormley checked from the hijack to Manchester Main Event champion Michael Breen on the button.
Breen slid out a bet of 10,000, and Gormley called to see the K♠ river.
Gormley checked once more, and Breen moved all-in with a bet of 15,800, and looked concerned when Gormley snap-called.
Gormley tabled A♣A♥ for the full house, and Breen tapped the table as he flipped J♣J♦.
Each of David Mackie, Paul Hempseed, Nadeem Abbas and Darren Harbinson had put in 1,800 preflop, to see a board of K♣8♦3♥.
Each player knuckled their option, and the 3♦ rolled off on the turn. Abbas led out with a bet of 2,200 from the small blind, forcing folds from Harbinson and Mackie, but Hempseed responded with a raise to 7,000 from the button.
Abbas called, and then check-called a bet of 13,000 from Hempseed on the 8♣ river. Abbas promptly mucked when Hempseed tabled A♠3♠ for trip threes.
Day 4 of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow contained plenty of drama, as Jack McMullan dominated a quickfire £150 Mini Main Event final table, and Laurynas Jakutis and Stephen Milloy enjoyed side event victories.
Day 1a of the £500 Main Event gathered a healthy 103 entries, with David Gallagher (461,000) topping a list of 26 qualifiers, which included Abdul Mukit (266,000) and Mark Johnston (252,000), both of whom final tabled the Mini Main Event, and Robbie Bull (158,000).
Jack McMullan Dominates £150 Mini Main Event Final Table (*£13,200 After Deal)
Ayrshire native Jack McMullan produced a dominant final table performance to emerge as the last player standing in the record-breaking 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Mini Main Event, securing the trophy and a £13,200 payday after a quick-fire five-hour shootout.
McMullan caught heat early, and only relinquished the lead for brief periods to Laurence Welch at the point of a three-way deal, and Oliver Hutchins shortly after. The agreement between McMullan (£10,200), Welch (£10,550), and Hutchins (£10,000) left only the destination of the trophy, and the final £3,000 of the prize pool, to be determined.
McMullan would emerge as the victor, securing a career-best tournament score for the Scot, normally found at the cash tables.
The £87,625 prize pool created by 701-runner field was a record for the event, and McMullan was delighted to be the last player standing, saying “Feels brilliant, it was a great day. I’ve not really played too many live tournaments, so thrilled, an amazing day. I play a couple of times a week, cash, and it’s great the Alea are getting these big tournaments coming, really fun, so yeh I’ll definitely be playing more!
I’ve been playing since I was 18, it’s my main hobby. There were some really good players at the final table today, so I was glad certain players busted. Oli’s a great player, so really pleased to win. Once the stacks evened out the deal made sense.”

Day 1b of the Main Event has just kicked off, with 17 players seated, including David Mackie.
Players sit down to a 50,000 starting stack, with the clock set to 40-minute levels. Late registration is open until the start of Level 10, and 25% of the field qualify for Day 2.
Day 1c, featuring 25-minute levels, kicks off at 8 p.m.
A great turnout of 103 entries for the first flight of the £500 Main Event, with the tournament well on the way to reaching the £100,000 guarantee.
David Gallagher (461,000) bagged the chip lead, with the qualifiers including Abdul Mukit (266,000) and Mark Johnston (252,000), both of whom put the disappointment of busting the Mini Main Event final table quickly behind them.
Day 1a of the three-day £500 buy-in, £100,000 guaranteed Main Event is underway, with 46 players registered already, including Brian Etheridge, fresh off a deep run in the Mini Main.
Other early birds include Robbie Bird, Angela Rogan and Ivan Meister.
Players sit down to a 50,000 starting stack, with the clock set to 40-minute levels. Late registration remains open until the start of Level 10, and 25% of the field will qualify for Day 2.
There are two further starting flights on August 7, with the final hyper flight on August 8.
Long before she learned to defend a big blind, Natalie Bromley was a lifelong Burnley FC supporter turned football broadcaster, co-founding the fan podcast No Nay Never before going on to commentate for BBC World. Her introduction to poker came through her ex-husband, and it wasn’t long before her media background and her new passion for the game began to intertwine.
Away from the tables, Bromley is also the founder of Hearts of Queens, a charitable foundation that supports women’s shelters and clean water initiatives in the communities the PartyPoker Tour visits. As she prepares for her home leg in Manchester, where she’ll be chasing redemption after a fifth-place Main Event finish last year, Bromley opens up about football, law, poker, and juggling it all.

Zhen Zhen topped a field of 256 entries to win the 2025 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow £500 Main Event for £22,500, storming back from a four-to-one heads-up deficit to defeat Scotland’s Kyle Scott with ace-high besting queen-six on the river. The final table also saw PartyPoker Team Pro Jaime Staples fall in seventh after a brutal cooler, while prolific grinder Dean Lyall and overall Day 2 chip leader David Lappin both went out short of the top three.
2025 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow £500 Main Event – Final Table Results
The PartyPoker Tour Glasgow kicks off on Monday, bringing a week of poker back to Alea Casino Glasgow and its river-view card room through August 8. Headlining the action is the £500 Main Event with its £100,000 guarantee, alongside the ever-popular £150 Mini Main Event, a lineup of poker.pro-branded tournaments, including Sviten Special and Red River Bounty, and JJ Hazan’s PLO Masters Series.
With Tour Ambassadors past and present sharing memories of last year’s stop and a jam-packed schedule of side events on tap, this sixth stop of the season is shaping up to be one of the Tour’s biggest yet.
The penultimate day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow was action-packed, as the £500 Main Event was reduced to its final 12 competitors, two starting flights of the PLO Masters were completed, and Kieran Fleming and Alex Gleeson lifted side event trophies.
Lewis Henderson Leads Final Twelve in £500 Main Event
A total of 93 players qualified for Day 2 from 355 entries, with a record-breaking prize pool of £157,975 creating a £28,500 first-place prize.
PartyPoker Tour ambassador Daniel Garcia led the way at the start of play, ahead of David Gallagher and Nicholas Scott, with 55 places to be paid, and a minimum cash worth £1,000.

The knockouts came at a frantic pace from the outset. Henderson got off to a hot start when he won the classic race to bust Dean Lyall, while players such as Dara O’Kearney and Richard Kellett suffered early exits, Kellett when he ran ace-king into a duo of pocket queens.
The bubble came in the second session, and James Rooney was the unfortunate player to leave empty handed, when he was forced all-in from the big blind and missed the runout. Mark Johnston, Andrew Hawksby and Paul Lennon were among those who bowed out with a minimum cash, while PartyPoker Tour ambassador Rebecca Hardisty departed in heartbreaking fashion to Gallagher.
Daniel Gormley vaulted into the chip lead when he pulled a big blind special to secure a double knockout, before Robbie Bull went runner-runner to survive. Bull would take full advantage of his good fortune, ending the day second in chips.

Evan Docherty was the first player to depart when the field was reduced to three tables, in a brutal aces versus kings cooler against Abdul Mukit. Henderson busted Darren Harbinson to move up the standings, and Gormley ended Garcia’s run in 21st.
The players will return at 3 p.m. on August 9 for the final showdown, with a £2,050 payday guaranteed, and poker.pro will have full coverage of the finale.

A full recap of the action in Day 2 will follow tomorrow, while our coverage of the final day will kick off at 3 p.m., so stay tuned to poker.pro for what is sure to be a thrilling finale to the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event.
On a completed board of 9♦5♠3♣4♠K♣, with 400,000 in the middle, Robbie Bull checked from the big blind to Gary Swan under the gun, who slid out a bet of 125,000.
Daniel Gormley called on the button, before Bull check-raised to 800,000.
Swan folded after a spell in the tank, and after an even bigger stint of thought, Gormley called.
Bull tabled A♣2♣ for the wheel straight, and Gormley showed 10♠9♠, leaving Gormley with crumbs.
Shortly after, Gormley was all-in from under the gun for 30,000, and received calls from Adam Green and Jeff Cannon in the blinds.
The active players checked down the K♠9♣7♦8♥9♦ runout to the river, where Cannon folded to a bet of 40,000 from Green.
Green tabled 10♥9♥ for trip nines, and that was good versus Gormley’s Q♥Q♠.
With 800,000 in the middle on a board of 8♠7♣5♠Q♠K♦, Robbie Bull jammed for 515,000 over a bet of 320,000 from Daniel Gormley, who made up the difference.
Bull tabled A♠9♠ for the nut flush, and Gormley had the second nuts with K♠2♠ in a pure cooler.
Abdul Mukit opened to 50,000 from early position, and received a call from Ben Crichton in the small blind, before Evan Docherty three-bet jammed from the big blind for 265,000.
Mukit called, and Crichton folded.
Evan Docherty: K♦K♣ Abdult Mukit: A♠A♦
It was a brutal cooler, and there was no escape for Docherty on the 6♥5♦3♠A♥2♥ runout.
Lewis Henderson is hunting his second trophy of the week after a win in the Sviten tournament, and here he defended the big blind versus a raise to 35,000 from Matthew Wharrie in the small blind,
Wharrie continued with a bet of 35,000 on the Q♣9♥7♣ flop, which failed to dispose of Henderson.
On the 5♦ turn, Wharrie check-folded versus a bet of 150,000 from Henderson.
Lewis Henderson – 1,110,000 Matthew Wharrie – 230,000
In a battle of two big stacks, Gary Swan opened to 24,000 from the cutoff, and was met with a three-bet to 70,000 from Joel Baxter on the button.
Swan thought for a brief period, before four-betting to 150,000. Baxter called, and the flop rolled off J♠7♠5♣, where Baxter called a continuation bet of 80,000 from Swan.
That was the end of the action, as the 9♥ turn and Q♥ river were checked through.
Swan tabled K♣K♦, and Baxter nodded and mucked, sending Swan over the one million mark.
Paul Lennon, Ross Whitlaw, Martin Byrne, David Dyson and Chris Farragher have all met their maker in the £500 Main Event, with the field now reduced to 37 players.
See the ‘Results’ Tab above for the full list of eliminations thus far.
With 68,000 in the middle on a flop of A♦10♦10♣, Allan Nesbitt and Niall Farrell knuckled their options to see the 4♣ turn, where Nesbitt led out with a bet of 35,000.
Farrell called to see the K♠ river, where Nesbitt check-folded versus a bet of 65,000 from Farrell.
Nicholas Scott sits atop the standings at the second break, with Daniel Garcia and Edoardo Mancinelli in hot pursuit, with the top counts as follows:-
Nicholas Scott – 950,000 Daniel Garcia – 855,000 Edoardo Mancinelli – 772,000 Joel Baxter – 750,000 Lewis Henderson – 700,000 Niall Farrell – 630,000 Allan Nesbitt – 595,000
Andrew Hawksby, Michael McGee and Cameron Williamson have all seen their runs come to an end.
On the bubble, Derek Morton was all-in from the button for 151,000 and at risk against Martin Byrne in the big blind.
Derek Morton: A♣A♠ Martin Byrne: K♦5♠
Morton had the goods, and there was no sweat on the 10♣6♦3♥8♣3♣ runout.
In the next hand, James Rooney’s final 3,000 was forced into the middle from the big blind. Nadeem Abbas limped from middle position, and Stuart McNally followed suit in the small blind.
On the K♣8♦2♣ flop, McNally check-folded versus a bet of 20,000 from Abbas.
James Rooney: J♥4♣ Nadeem Abbas: A♣K♥
Rooney needed a miracle, and it did not arrive on the 2♠2♥ runout.
At the same time, at another table, with 43,000 in the middle on a board of K♥3♥8♦3♠9♥, Ramlal Basdeo was all-in for 50,000, and at risk against Kyle Swan.
Swan had A♥5♥ for the nut flush, but Basdeo had better with 8♥8♣ for the full house.
As such, Rooney was the unfortunate bubble boy in the £500 Main Event.
Derek Morton – 322,000 Martin Byrne – 316,000 Nadeem Abbas – 185,000 Ramlal Basdeo – 163,000 Kyle Swan – 126,000 James Rooney – 0
Bernard McGinlay opened to 12,000 from middle position, and called a three-bet jam to 57,000 from Abdul Mukit in the small blind.
Abdul Mukit: A♥Q♦ Bernard McGinlay: A♠J♦
Mukit had McGinlay pipped, and his better kicker played on the 8♥5♥3♣3♥4♣ runout.
Shortly after, with 60,000 in the middle on a board of K♦J♠9♠, Johnny Kelly slid out a bet of 25,000, and was met with a jam from Mukit for 140,000. Allan Nesbitt called, and Kelly folded.
Abdul Mukit: 9♦9♣ Allan Nesbitt: K♠10♠
It was a set versus top pair and a gutshot, and although the 10♥ turn brought Nesbitt additional outs, the 7♦ river was a brick.
Ka Pun, John Burke and Alex Gleeson busted at other tables to bring the bubble ever closer.
Jamie Geraghty opened to 16,000 from the button, and John Clements defended the big blind.
On the J♦8♥5♠ flop, Clements check-called versus a bet of 15,000 from Geraghty.
The same pattern followed on the 4♣ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 40,000 from Geraghty.
The K♠ river was checked through, and Clements mucked with frustration when Geraghty tabled K♥3♥.
“Lucky river”, lamented Clements. “Lucky river indeed”, said Geraghty as he raked in the pot.
2025 Manchester Main Event winner Deniz Orhan has fallen, along with Robert Robb and David Fleming to bring the bubble ever closer, with 55 places set to secure a £1,000 minimum cash.
Lisa Ferris was getting up out of her chair, and her 85,000 stack was being passed to Mark Swift, after her 6♠6♦ ran into Swift’s J♣J♥, with the board reading Q♠10♥8♣5♠2♥.
None of Daniyaal Hussain, Patrick Murphy, Killian O’Brien, Nicholas Swann and Kyle Scott will be getting their hands on the Main Event trophy in Glasgow.
The following players are sitting pretty at the top of the standings as the first break approaches:-
David Gallagher – 690,000 Nicholas Scott – 640,000 Gary Swan – 635,000 Laurynas Jakutis – 530,000 Chris Jennings – 467,000 Joel Baxter – 462,000 Lewis Henderson – 460,000 Edoardo Mancinelli – 450,000 John Woods – 430,000
Dara O’Kearney, Craig Conway, James O’Brien, Martin Byrne, Kieran Fleming, Pamela Cairney, David Jackson, Steven Sharpe, Kieran McLean, Gaoyang Yang and Sam Acheampong have all hit the wall in Day 2 before the money.
Dylan Thomson opened to 8,000 under the gun, and received calls from Robert Robb in the next seat, and John Burke and Robbie Bull in the blinds.
Action was checked to Robb on the 6♦5♣4♠ flop, who fired out a bet of 8,000.
Only Bull folded, and the 4♦ hit on the turn. Action was again checked to Robb, who double-barreled with a bet of 17,000, leading to a call from Burke and fold from Thomson.
The 6♥ river completed the board, and Burke checked once more. Robb emptied the clip with an all-in bet of 170,000, and Burke was sent into the tank.
After about two minutes of thought, looking pained with around 151,000 behind, Burke folded. Robb proudly windmilled K♣Q♥ into the middle, and raked in a big pot.
Johnny Kelly recounted a crazy hand from Table 1 which led to the exit of Richard Kellett.
Kelly opened under the gun with queens, and was met with a three-bet to 30,000 from Lewis Henderson. Kellett four-bet jammed for 75,000 with ace-king, before Bernard McGinlay cold five-bet jammed for around 230,000 from the big blind.
Kelly called, but Henderson got out of the way.
McGinlay also had pocket queens, and Kellett missed the runout, leading to his departure.
Johnny Kelly – 285,000 Bernard McGinley – 286,000 Richard Kellett – 0

Long before she learned to defend a big blind, Natalie Bromley was a lifelong Burnley FC supporter turned football broadcaster, co-founding the fan podcast No Nay Never before going on to commentate for BBC World. Her introduction to poker came through her ex-husband, and it wasn’t long before her media background and her new passion for the game began to intertwine.
Away from the tables, Bromley is also the founder of Hearts of Queens, a charitable foundation that supports women’s shelters and clean water initiatives in the communities the PartyPoker Tour visits. As she prepares for her home leg in Manchester, where she’ll be chasing redemption after a fifth-place Main Event finish last year, Bromley opens up about football, law, poker, and juggling it all.

Zhen Zhen topped a field of 256 entries to win the 2025 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow £500 Main Event for £22,500, storming back from a four-to-one heads-up deficit to defeat Scotland’s Kyle Scott with ace-high besting queen-six on the river. The final table also saw PartyPoker Team Pro Jaime Staples fall in seventh after a brutal cooler, while prolific grinder Dean Lyall and overall Day 2 chip leader David Lappin both went out short of the top three.
2025 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow £500 Main Event – Final Table Results
The final day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow stop at Alea Casino went off with a bang on August 9, bringing to an end a fantastic week of poker.
After Robbie Bull sealed Main Event glory, Irish legend Dara O’Kearney secured victory in the £1,000 High Roller, while there were also wins for James McLean in the £250 PLO Masters Main Event, Raymond Peacock in the £250 Mystery Bounty, Craig Cadden in the £150 NLH Last Chance, and Dana Ameen in the £60 PLO 4/5/6 Double Board.
Robbie Bull Revels in Home-Soil £500 Main Event Win (£28,500)
Only 12 players returned for the final day of the £500 Main Event, where a huge £157,975 prize pool was gathered from a 355-runner field, with Lewis Henderson leading from Robbie Bull, and all eyes firmly set on the £28,500 first-place prize.
Henderson and Bull remained in the lead at the start of the final table, but Henderson would crash out in sixth. Bull was content to watch others hit the wall initially, but started to move through the gears when four remained.
After the exits of Jeff Cannon and Ben Crichton, the final showdown was between Edinburgh natives Bull and Abdul Mukit. A lengthy heads-up battle ensued, and Bull eventually went runner-runner to hit a one-card straight and end the contest.
Bull was delighted with the win, saying “It feels great, I’ve been playing poker in Scotland for 15 or 16 years and I haven’t won a trophy here! So to win one on home soil, with Glasgow on the trophy, feels extra special.
I was definitely playing for the win, the trophy meant quite a lot to me. I didn’t really feel any pressure so I was just able to play my game, and adjust appropriately to whatever strategy my stack-size dictated. I wasn’t playing to ladder.”
On his final opponent, Mukit, Bull said “It was a lot of small ball and small pots, I was surprised it took so long for us to be at risk. Abdul’s a really strong player. We’ve been playing cash and tournaments together for ten years, he’s from Edinburgh as well, we play all the time, he’s one of the most consistent tournament grinders in Scotland so it was a good battle, and was glad to win. I got lucky in the final hand and ran good in the all-ins for sure.”

That concludes poker.pro‘s coverage of what has been a fantastic week of poker, thank you Glasgow for your hospitality!
The next stop on the PartyPoker Tour is in Castellon in Spain from October 5-11, see you there!
Robbie Bull has emerged triumphant at Alea Casino in the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, securing the trophy and a £28,500 payday after defeating Abdul Mukit heads-up in a hard fought battle, making him the last player standing in the 355-runner field.
Bull has long been established as one of the UK’s finest, and is currently ranked in the top 400 tournament players worldwide, with this victory adding to his already stellar resume of almost $1.5 million in cashes.
Despite being accustomed to competing at higher stakes, the win was savored by the Edinburgh native, with victory on home soil tasting all the sweeter.

Winner’s Reaction
“It feels great, I’ve been playing poker in Scotland for 15 or 16 years and I haven’t won a trophy here! So to win one on home soil, with Glasgow on the trophy, feels extra special.
I was definitely playing for the win, the trophy meant quite a lot to me. I didn’t really feel any pressure so I was just able to play my game, and adjust appropriately to whatever strategy my stack-size dictated. I wasn’t playing to ladder.”
On his final opponent, Mukit, Bull said “It was a lot of small ball and small pots, I was surprised it took so long for us to be at risk. Abdul’s a really strong player. We’ve been playing cash and tournaments together for ten years, he’s from Edinburgh as well, we play all the time, he’s one of the most consistent tournament grinders in Scotland so it was a good battle, and was glad to win. I got lucky in the final hand and ran good in the all-ins for sure.”
Bull confirmed he has his eyes on the PartyPoker Tour stops coming up in Spain, but his immediate plans are to head to EPT Barcelona. He will certainly do so in good form.
Final Day Recap
Lewis Henderson led the 12 players who returned for the final day, with Bull sitting in second, while Mukit, who also final tabled the Mini Main earlier in the week, was in the middle of the pack.

After a slow start, a flurry of successive knockouts reduced the field to the final table in rapid fashion. While Adam Green was in the tank after Henderson jammed the river, two knockouts at the other table occurred.
First, John Woods picked a poor time to jam light from the small blind, running into Joel Baxter’s ace-king. Despite hitting the front on the flop, Woods was sent to the rail when Baxter went runner-runner to make a wheel straight.
In the next hand, Mukit eliminated short-stack David Carson. Meanwhile, Green was still in the tank versus Henderson. He eventually called off with pocket queens for second pair, and suddenly there were only nine left.
Final Table Action
Henderson had maintained his start of day lead over Bull as the final table began, while Mukit was in the middle of the pack.
Baxter started off strong, making a flush against Ben Crichton, before Chris Hendry became the first casualty of the final table when he ran an inferior pocket pair into Henderson’s aces.
Matters started to go wrong for Henderson after he called off versus a three-bet jam from Mukit to see he was up against a better pair. A further confrontation between the duo resulted in Henderson’s demise in sixth, after he check-jammed the river with the nut flush blocker, but ran into Mukit’s set.
Bull had been relatively quiet while chaos ensued around him, but held in successive flips against Crichton and Mukit to double twice just before the second break, vaulting him into the lead.
Shortly after the return, Cannon’s run came to an end in fourth, after he jammed the button but ran into Mukit’s premium holding in the big blind.
Crichton had become the relative short-stack, and he had to settle for bronze after he got two-outered by Bull when holding pocket queens. Bull and Mukit were almost dead level at the start of heads-up play, and traded blows for over 50 hands before they could be separated, with Mukit holding a significant lead at one point.

Bull came back into it when his top pair held versus Mukit’s bottom pair and flush draw. After taking the lead, the champion went runner-runner to make a one-card straight while dominated, bringing the contest to an end and sending Bull the title.
The players shared a warm handshake, and Bull was left to celebrate a precious victory on home soil.

That concludes our coverage of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, although a recap of the final side event results will be provided tomorrow.
The PartyPoker Tour’s next stop is in Castellon in Spain from October 5-11, see you there!
Robbie Bull has emerged as the worthy champion in the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, defeating Abdul Mukit heads-up after a back and forth battle.
Bull will be taking £28,500 and the trophy back to Edinburgh.
Stay tuned for a recap of the day and an interview with the champion.
The players have been trading pots the first few hands of heads-up, with no significant change in the overall position, with the stacks of Abdul Mukit and Robbie Bull still pretty even.
Abdul Mukit jammed from the small blind with the covering stack, and Robbie Bull blew out his cheeks, said “Let’s paly for the win”, and called for his 3,530,000 total stack.
Robbie Bull: 8♣8♥ Abdul Mukit: A♣10♣
It was off to the races, and Mukit could not connect with the Q♠J♦3♦J♣5♣ runout.
The players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
Robbie Bull – 7,225,000 Abdul Mukit – 6,400,000 Jeff Cannon – 2,275,000 Ben Crichton – 1,850,000
Robbie Bull opened to 325,000 under the gun, and received a call from Ben Crichton in the next seat, before they both folded to a three-bet of 950,000 from Abdul Mukit in the big blind.
Abdul Mukit – 9,425,000 Ben Crichton – 4,000,000 Robbie Bull – 1,940,000
Lewis Henderson will not be adding a Main Event trophy to his existing haul of PartyPoker Tour silverware here in Glasgow.
With 700,000 in the middle on a board of 5♣4♣3♥J♣, Henderson check-called from the big blind versus a bet of 250,000 from Abdul Mukit in early position.
The 9♠ river completed the board, and Henderson checked once more. Mukit fired out a bet of 700,000, and after a good spell in the tank, Henderson check-jammed for 1,730,000.
Mukit went into the tank, but made the call. Henderson tabled A♣7♥ for air, with the ace of clubs flush blocker, and Mukit had J♥J♦ for top set.
Gary Swan and Jeff Cannon are discussing potential plans for their winnings, and apparently a new sofa might be on the cards for Spinks, while Cannon’s wife is angling for a paint job on the house.
A period of little substantive action, apart from Robbie Bull folding to a bet of 450,000 from Ben Crichton on the river on a board of 10♠6♥4♦4♠9♦, with 980,000 in the middle.
The current full chip counts are as follows:-
Lewis Henderson – 5,100,000 Robbie Bull – 2,900,000 Ben Crichton – 2,880,000 Joel Baxter – 2,725,000 Jeff Cannon – 2,200,000 Gary Swan – 1,450,000 Abdul Mukit – 685,000
In the next hand, with 800,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♠7♥3♠, in a button versus big blind spot between Jeff Cannon and Nicholas Scott, Scott checked to his opponent.
Cannon jammed with the covering stack, and Scott called off for his roughly 750,000 stack.
Nicholas Scott: A♠K♠ Jeff Cannon: J♦9♦
Scott was ahead with a flush draw to go with his better overcards versus the gutshot of Cannon, and while the 7♣ turn was a brick, Cannon drilled the 8♦ river.
Scott was stunned, and left the table looking heartbroken.
Ben Crichton opened to 125,000 from early position, and received calls from Lewis Henderson in middle position, Jeff Cannon in the cutoff, and Joel Baxter in the big blind.
The Q♠10♠7♠ flop was checked to Cannon, who slid out a bet of 200,000. Baxter called, before Crichton check-jammed with a bet of 865,000.
Cannon folded, but Baxter called.
Ben Crichton: K♥K♠ Joel Baxter: Q♥10♥
Crichton’s kings were behind Baxter’s two pair, but Crichton had the flush draw.
Instead, he binked the K♣ on the turn to leave Baxter dead, the 2♣ river completing the board.
Christopher Hendry jammed from early position for 740,000, and was looked up by Lewis Henderson in the cutoff.
Christopher Hendry: 10♣10♠ Lewis Henderson: A♠A♥
Hendry had run into the goods, and although the flop was sweaty to a certain extent for Henderson, he turned quads to leave Hendry dead on the A♣K♠Q♣A♦4♦ runout, and cement his chip lead.
Lewis Henderson – 5,175,000 Christopher Hendry – 0
With 250,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♣7♣6♣, Ben Crichton check-raised to 250,000 from the big blind, versus a bet of 50,000 from Joel Baxter in the cutoff.
Baxter called to see the 4♥ turn, where he called a bet of 400,000 from Crichton.
The 8♣ hit on the river, and Crichton check-called a bet of 450,000 from Baxter.
Crichton mucked when Baxter tabled A♣J♠ for the ace-high flush.
Lewis Henderson opened to 100,000 from the button, and was faced with a three-bet to 350,000 from Adam Green in the small blind.
Henderson called to see the K♥9♣6♥ flop, where Green continued with a bet of 200,000, which failed to shake off Henderson.
The 4♥ hit on the turn, and Green checked. Henderson jammed with the covering stack, and Green called after an age in the tank, during which he secured a payjump.
Adam Green: Q♣Q♥ Lewis Henderson: K♦J♣
Henderson had outflopped Green, and the 5♠ river was a brick.
Abdul Mukit jammed from the small blind, and David Carson called off for his roughly 750,000 stack in the big blind.
David Carson: A♠K♦ Abdul Mukit: J♣10♦
Carson had woken up with a premium, and looked to be heading for a double-up after the 9♠3♦3♣ flop and 8♥ turn, although the same brought Mukit a wrap draw.
However the J♦ hit on the river, sending Carson to the rail.
A cagey start to proceedings, with no significant action in the first six hands at either table.
John Woods and Abdul Mukit have failed to appear at Table 9 thus far, leading to a slightly strange table dynamic for the players at that table. Hopefully it is simply traffic issues!
Lewis Henderson is a perennial side event winner on the PartyPoker Tour, having picked up no fewer than six trophies since its inception in 2025.
However, Mini Main Event and Main Event silverware has eluded him, and Henderson returns to the Alea Casino at 3 p.m. on August 9 at the head of a field of 12 players in the record-breaking Glasgow Main Event, hoping to finally land the marquee trophy.
Henderson (3,890,000) holds a reasonable lead over Robbie Bull (2,800,000), while there is a further gap to Ben Crichton (1,840,000) in third.

Plenty of other quality players remain in the mix for the £28,500 first-place prize, including Joel Baxter (1,120,000) and Abdul Mukit (1,150,000), who final tabled the Mini Main.

poker.pro will be on the floor from 3 p.m., bringing you full coverage of what is sure to be a thrilling finale to the PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event, so stay tuned!
The penultimate day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow was action-packed, as the £500 Main Event was reduced to its final 12 competitors, two starting flights of the PLO Masters were completed, and Kieran Fleming and Alex Gleeson lifted side event trophies.
Lewis Henderson Leads Final Twelve in £500 Main Event
A total of 93 players qualified for Day 2 from 355 entries, with a record-breaking prize pool of £157,975 creating a £28,500 first-place prize.
PartyPoker Tour ambassador Daniel Garcia led the way at the start of play, ahead of David Gallagher and Nicholas Scott, with 55 places to be paid, and a minimum cash worth £1,000.

The knockouts came at a frantic pace from the outset. Henderson got off to a hot start when he won the classic race to bust Dean Lyall, while players such as Dara O’Kearney and Richard Kellett suffered early exits, Kellett when he ran ace-king into a duo of pocket queens.
The bubble came in the second session, and James Rooney was the unfortunate player to leave empty handed, when he was forced all-in from the big blind and missed the runout. Mark Johnston, Andrew Hawksby and Paul Lennon were among those who bowed out with a minimum cash, while PartyPoker Tour ambassador Rebecca Hardisty departed in heartbreaking fashion to Gallagher.
Daniel Gormley vaulted into the chip lead when he pulled a big blind special to secure a double knockout, before Robbie Bull went runner-runner to survive. Bull would take full advantage of his good fortune, ending the day second in chips.

Evan Docherty was the first player to depart when the field was reduced to three tables, in a brutal aces versus kings cooler against Abdul Mukit. Henderson busted Darren Harbinson to move up the standings, and Gormley ended Garcia’s run in 21st.
The players will return at 3 p.m. on August 9 for the final showdown, with a £2,050 payday guaranteed, and poker.pro will have full coverage of the finale.

poker.pro‘s coverage will focus on the final day of the Main Event, so stay tuned as we see who can lift the PartyPoker Tour Glasgow Main Event trophy.
Long before she learned to defend a big blind, Natalie Bromley was a lifelong Burnley FC supporter turned football broadcaster, co-founding the fan podcast No Nay Never before going on to commentate for BBC World. Her introduction to poker came through her ex-husband, and it wasn’t long before her media background and her new passion for the game began to intertwine.
Away from the tables, Bromley is also the founder of Hearts of Queens, a charitable foundation that supports women’s shelters and clean water initiatives in the communities the PartyPoker Tour visits. As she prepares for her home leg in Manchester, where she’ll be chasing redemption after a fifth-place Main Event finish last year, Bromley opens up about football, law, poker, and juggling it all.

Zhen Zhen topped a field of 256 entries to win the 2025 PartyPoker Tour Glasgow £500 Main Event for £22,500, storming back from a four-to-one heads-up deficit to defeat Scotland’s Kyle Scott with ace-high besting queen-six on the river. The final table also saw PartyPoker Team Pro Jaime Staples fall in seventh after a brutal cooler, while prolific grinder Dean Lyall and overall Day 2 chip leader David Lappin both went out short of the top three.
