A sell out field of 150 players came to the G Casino, Luton to play the third leg of the Sky Poker Tour. In an exciting atmosphere a swift rate of exits meant the tournament was down to two tables by mid evening. At that point three players were making the running. Ross Jarvis and David Gee on one table, and Tony Stroud on the other.

Amongst the nine final table players were former professional footballer Micky Hazard, who was to finish 9th and Sky Poker analyst Trevor Harris who was to finish 6th. Gradually by virtue of constant re-raising aggression Ross Jarvis wrested the initiative from the other players and by the time he was Heads-Up with Stroud had a chip lead. Heads-Up play was brief and Jarvis' A 6 won against Stroud's 10J, all-in pre-flop on the first hand.

So Ross Jarvis, a journalist for Poker Player Magazine, won SPT Luton, winning £4,000 for doing so. The next leg of the Sky Poker Tour is at the Alea Casino in Glasow on Saturday 8th May. Satellites are now available in the lobby.
