There is a new kid on the poker scene who uses the name sbrugby. If you have been paying attention to big stakes money matches you’ll know who I am speaking of. On any given day, you can see sbrugby (Brian Townsend) competing in the highest limits on Full Tilt Poker. The normal game of 200/400NL has a max buy-in of forty thousand dollars. Many nights sbrugby will end up having about two hundred thousand dollars by the conclusion of his sessions. Sbrugby is rumored to be 24 years old and has just been participating for two years. He captured a tiny 20 dollar buy-in tournament for about two thousand dollars and has never looked back. He honed his skills in betting house cash matches at the 2/5no limit table. Phil Ivey has been battling this guy non-stop for the past couple of weeks. Almost all of Ivey’s opponents go down in fire after Phil defeats them. Sbrugby is not like most of Ivey’s competitors.
Sbrugby understands how to play against the greatest gambler on the planet. He wagers a absolutely strong style and is relentlessly applying pressure on his competitors. Whenever he sees weakness in his opponent, he will put his opponent to the test. His incredible ability to analyze his competitor’s cards places him among the biggest on the globe. Brian Townsend is featured in the third season of GSN’s High Stakes Poker (HSP). Brian is one of a number of new net whiz kids who are dominating net poker.
