A shortened-format charity tournament at Stratford with a modest entry, an add-on donated in full and a structure designed to finish inside an evening. The proceeds go to the room’s chosen charity partner.

23 Aug Sunday
♠ Poker Tournament £200,000 GTD

Thames Valley Poker Festival

📍 Grosvenor Casino Reading South, Rose Kiln Lane, Reading  ·  🕐 August 23, 2026, 12:00 PM

Reading South’s flagship main event, carrying a £200,000 guarantee across multiple starting flights over the weekend, with a structure deep enough that day two begins with most of the field still holding playable stacks.

Guarantees and start times shift before the day, so treat the list as provisional and confirm with the room before booking travel. Structures and guarantees come from each venue and can move before the day, and poker entry is restricted to guests aged 18 and over under UK licensing.
