Vote Channing

Neil Channing's trophy cabinet might have an Irish Poker title beaming against the glass, but there's still room for more, and with your help, we can add a British Poker Award to his collection.

On September 13, 2010, the Fox Poker Club will play host to The British Poker Awards, a poker awards ceremony that looks to honour those who have achieved greatness throughout the last 12 months.

There are a number of categories including 'Best Online Player', 'Best International Player' and 'Best UK Cardroom'. Neil has been nominated for an award in the 'Best Cash Player' category and is sharing company with Richard Ashby, Luke Schwartz, Ben Grundy, Ben Roberts and Bambos Charalambos.

In the live arena especially, cash games are particularly hard to judge due to their almost covert nature, but Neil has been a permanent fixture for many years, and is believed to have taken more money off London tourists than all the Capital's major attractions combined. He plays in the highest games the Vic has to offer, and even participated in the 'Big Game' where he played for 48 hours straight.

"I'm honoured to be nominated," commented Neil proudly. "I'm not sure how many on the list made money this year, but that's the thing about cash, you just never know. It would be great to win it, although I'm not sure I want to encourage my nippers."

If you would like to vote for Neil, then the process couldn't be easier. Simply click here and tick the boxes provided. Once you have submitted, you will be automatically entered into the free draw to win a ticket to the awards, hopefully to see Neil pick up the title of 'Best Cash Player'. That would be marvellous.

To share your view on who should win which category, please feel free to submit your thoughts in the comments' box below.
