by Ali on December 21st, 2009
There is a fresh kid on the poker scene who uses the screen name sbrugby. If you have been watching high stakes money games you’ll be aware of who I am talking about. On any given day, you can catch Brian Townsend AKA sbrugby playing at the highest limits on internet Poker. The typical game of 200/400NL has a maximum buy-in of forty thousand dollars. Many evenings sbrugby will end up having close to $200,000 at the end of his sessions. Sbrugby is believed to be 24 years old and has just been competing for 2 years. He won a small twenty dollar buy in tournament for about $2000 and hasn’t looked back. He sharpened his skills in poker room cash games at the 2/5no limit table. Phil Ivey has been hammering away on this guy non-stop for the last couple of weeks. Almost all of Ivey’s competitors go down in fire after Phil defeats them. Sbrugby is not like most of Phil’s opponents.
Sbrugby understands how to compete with the best player in the world. He plays a very aggressive style and is relentlessly applying pressure on his opponents. Whenever he notices weakness in his opponent, he’ll put his competitor to the test. His amazing ability to read his opponent’s hand puts him amongst the best on the globe. Brian Townsend is displayed in the third season of High Stakes Poker (HSP). Brian is one of a number of new web superstars who are controlling web poker.
