Ex-Eastenders actor Michael Greco has won leg three of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour, taking home more than £100,000 after winning a marathon eight-hour final table in Cardiff.

This was Greco’s first major win – in fact he beat a field of 314 other players. Greco is quoted as saying “This means so much to me and I’d like to thank Blue Square and Grosvenor for organizing such a well structured event,” .. yawn!
