On any given day, you will be able to catch sbrugby (Brian Townsend) competing in the highest limits on Full Tilt Poker. The normal match of 200/400no limit has a max buy-in of $40, 000. Most nights sbrugby will finish up having close to $200,000 at the conclusion of his games. Sbrugby is rumored to be 24 years old and has only been gambling for two years. He won a small 20 dollar buy-in tournament for about $2,000 and hasn’t looked back. He sharpened his skills in betting house cash matches at the 2/5no limit table. Phil Ivey has been battling this player continually for the past couple of weeks. Almost all of Ivey’s opponents go down in fire after Ivey defeats them. Sbrugby isn’t like a majority of Ivey’s opponents.

Sbrugby understands how to hold his own with the greatest gambler in the world. He gambles a very aggressive style and is constantly administering pressure on his competitors. Anytime he notices weakness in his opponent, he’ll put his opponent to the test. His impressive skill to analyze his competitor’s cards puts him alongside the biggest on the globe.
