Neil Channing

Neil Andrew Channing (born 9 December 1967) is an English professional poker player and author based in Maida Vale, London.

Before turning professional, he worked as a bookmaker at various UK racecourses, and now provides books part-time for various sports betting companies.

In March 2010, he finished second in GUKPT London for £84,700 before finally capturing his first UK title in the Luton leg of August of the same year.

Although a bracelet has thus far evaded him, Channing has cashed 33 times in WSOP/E events, putting him first in the UK in front of David Ulliott (32) and Surinder Sunar (31).

Neil played a number of events cashing in five, his biggest score coming in the $40,000 No Limit Hold'em freezeout where he finished 20th for $71,858.
