The Partypoker UK Tour Birmingham wrapped up with a series of high-stakes wins and surprising turnarounds. Players from across the UK competed in multiple events, with several walking away with substantial prizes. The tournament also revealed London as the final stop for the tour this year.
The week kicked off with the £50,000-guaranteed Mini Main Event, which far exceeded expectations by building a prize pool of £82,500. Robert Douras took first place, securing £14,370, while Tai Hoang finished second for £9,080. Hoang didn’t stop there—he went on to win the main £150 buy-in event, pocketing £27,420.
In the Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) Main Event, Ben Sweetman emerged victorious after outlasting Rizwan Pirmohamed and Brandon Sheils. The event had a £20,000 guarantee but grew to £22,575, rewarding Sweetman with the top prize. Siddharth Sudunagunta also had a strong showing, winning £830 in a side event before cashing £11,530 in the main tournament. His run included a lucky break—a prize draw during a pause earned him a free seat in Sunday’s £1,000 High Roller.
The Birmingham leg of the Partypoker UK Tour delivered big wins and memorable moments. With London now set as the final destination, players will have one last chance to compete before the year ends. The tour continues to attract strong fields and generate impressive prize pools.
