The first of two opening flights in the £100,000 GTD Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) Cardiff Main Event is done and dusted with Fraser Bellamy leading the way.
Bellamy has already enjoyed a fine 2015 after taking down the Sky Poker UK Championship Main Event in February for £200,000. He's well placed for another deep run in the Welsh capital after closing Day 1a with 120,700.A total of 67 players took to the Cardiff tables on Thursday with 25 securing their place in Saturday's day 2 action. Nipping at Bellamy's heels was Warren Jones (118,700) who was the only other player to crack the six-figure stack barrier.Also making solid starts were the likes of Ian Bosley (81,500), Bogden Serea (79,600) and Clark Durbin (79,300).Organisers are expecting a much bigger turnout for today's Day 1b action with 137 entrants required to avoid an overlay. The action starts at 1pm today.GUKPT Cardiff Day 1a Chip LeadersFraser Bellamy 120700Warren Jones 118100Ian Bosley 81500Bogden Serea 79600Clark Durbin 79300Tom Bauer 63700Hui Jin 62300Raih Khan 61500Paul Senter 57000Carl Harris 50200
