Votes for the PokerStars.com-sponsored awards have been tallied, so all that remains is for the results to be revealed and the awards presented at a glamorous party at London’s famous West End casino, with the world’s poker greats in attendance.Sam Trickett was the big winner last time out, taking home three awards including the illustrious Player of the Year title. Will he go back-to-back, or will we have a new winner in March?There are a number of multiple nominees this year, including World Series of Poker Player of the Year runner-up Matt Ashton. Matt has been nominated in three categories, including Performance of the Year.
