Team Titan member Sam Trickett was named Best Cash Player at the recent British Poker Awards.

Trickett, was nominated in three categories, winners of which were selected by online voters. The awards were announced recently at the Poker in the Park ceremony at London’s Hanover Square. He won Best Cash Player but was also nominated for Best Tournament Player and Best Social Media User.

In 2010, the first year of the British Poker Awards, Trickett won Best New Player.

Other award winners included Jason Mercier for Best International Player, Jake Cody for Best Tournament Player, and Chris Moorman for Best Online Player.

Finally, the big award, Player of the Year, was awarded to Jake Cody. This award was not voted on by fans, but was instead decided by a panel of judges including poker magazine editors and others. This decision backed up by the voter’s decision that Cody was also the best tournament player of the year. Cody was highlighted as an excellent real money player, not someone who just excels at online play.
