Dan Charlton is a British professional poker player best known for becoming the 2024 WSOP Circuit UK Main Event champion. Charlton excels in both online poker and live poker tournaments; he is often seen wearing the shirt of Macclesfield Town when playing in live events.
Charlton is a prolific online poker tournament player, and most online grinders know him by his "judgedredd13" alias. However, he is also a talented live poker player, one with over $500,000 in cashes.
In January 2011, Charlton finished second in the GUKPT Manchester Main Event, earning him £39,350. More five-figure scores followed in late 2017 and early 2018 before Charlton enjoyed the largest score of his career at the 2019 World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas. Charlton finished 32nd from 8,569 entrants in the $10,000 Main Event, earning $261,430.
Fast-forward to March 2024, and Charlton captured his first live title in style. Despite finding himself armed with a solitary 25,000 chips with 12 players remaining in the £1,100 WSOP Circuit UK Main Event at Dusk Till Dawn, Charlton came out on top and scooped £73,295 and a WSOP Circuit ring.
