Grosvenor Casino Westgate: Premier Poker Events & Laws

Callum Jury
Originally from the Lake District, UK, I’ve spent the last few years living and breathing the Southeast Asian poker circuit. Since 2025, I’ve been a fixture on the floor at the APT, PokerStars, and WSOP events, serving as a lead reporter and media specialist for Somuchpoker. My work is about more than just recording action; I manage the social media and digital content that brings action rail to the fans. By combining a business education and creative background, I aim to look past the technical hand histories to capture the actual human grit and drama that happens during a deep run.

Grosvenor Casino Westgate Leeds is the leading gaming destination in West Yorkshire, widely recognized for its high-quality poker room and regional tournament circuit. Open 24/7, the venue is a staple on the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) and serves as a primary hub for northern players seeking professional, dealer-dealt tournament action.
