2010. September 05.
The very first <em>WPT</em> London saw the British Jake<em> &lsquo;neverbluff67&rsquo; </em>Cody finishing first, proving once again we can talk about something like &ldquo;The Year of the Brit.&rdquo; The 21-year-old pro made a huge step towards the coveted Triple Crown of poker, as he also won the <em>EPT</em> Deauville (earning &euro;847,000) in January; there is only a<em> WSOP</em> title to go.
The chipleader of the 8-handed final table of the £5000+£300 event was Giovanni Safina with a slight advantage over Kristoffer Thorsson, who was also playing for PartyPoker’s $500,000+$500,000 additional prize for those making it to the WPT via their satellites. The final table was as follows:
