Brett Angell Tops 2021 Goliath Online Day 1C Chip Counts
Table Of Contents
Day 1C of the 2021 Goliath Online was the busiest flight yet with 591 Grosvenor Poker players hitting the virtual felt. Only 51 of those starters punched their Day 2 tickets, and none of them finished with more chips than Brett Angell.
Angell is a familiar face to anyone who frequents the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT). The Middlesbrough man is a GUKPT champion, having triumphed in the 2019 edition of the GUKPT Leeds Main Event. That result saw Angell reel in a £20,912 score, a prize that he will blow out of the water if he becomes the 2021 Goliath Online champion.
