The UK University Poker Open

Registration is now open!

UK University Poker Open


The UK University Poker Open, or UKUPO for short, is a multi-stage No-Limit Holdem tournament between university students in the United Kingdom. The event’s purpose is to identify the best students in tournament-style No Limit Holdem poker. To the organisers’ knowledge, it is the first intercollegiate, free-to-enter tournament based in the UK. Similar tournaments that this event has taken inspiration from include the (now inactive) Collegiate Series of Poker (CSOP) and the Intercollegiate Poker Association (IPA)

In its first iteration, the competition will have a generous prize pool, as well as merch and an expenses-paid live final in London with our sponsor Jane Street.
