Red-hot Channing leads Team GB to glory in the Poker Nations cup

Great Britain are the winners of the 2008 PartyPoker.com Poker Nations Cup! Team Great Britain, captained by Roland de Wolfe and featuring Neil Channing, Surinder Sunar, Joe Beevers, Ian Frazer and PartyPoker.com VIP online qualifier Charlie Durbin overcome Ireland heads-up to take down the prestigious title.

The team event also featured world class line-ups from the USA, Germany, Holland and Sweden and there was no surprise that it was man of the moment Neil Channing who eventually brought the cup home for Britain. All six teams competed in a “tag” final where each team captain’s judgement was vital, as it was up to them to make tactical substitutions and strategic “time outs.”

“I’m absolutely delighted,” said team captain de Wolfe.
