Top poker professional Shannon Shorr has got tickets to see Chelsea's last Premier League game of the season on Sunday.

The Alabama native is heading to London as part of a brief holiday from poker and he revealed in his blog that, along with some friends, he has a seat for the title contenders' final match at home to Bolton Wanderers.

Shorr did not say which side he would be rooting for, but hinted that it might be the Blues because he is such a big fan of London as a city.

Chelsea are in with a chance winning of the Premier League title but need leaders Manchester United to slip up at Wigan Athletic to secure the trophy.

The football is the only thing currently scheduled for Shorr's trip but he believes he will "probably drink a lot of beer at the pubs and eat a lot of fish and chips" during his time in the nation's capital.
