There is a new kid on the poker scene who uses the screen name sbrugby. If you have been paying attention to big stakes money games you will be aware of who I am talking about. On any given day, you will be able to catch Brian Townsend AKA sbrugby playing at the maximum limits on Full Tilt Poker. The typical match of 200/400no limit has a max buy-in of $40, 000. Most evenings sbrugby will end up having close to $200,000 by the close of his sessions. Sbrugby is rumored to be 24 years old and has just been competing for two years. He won a small twenty dollar buy in tournament for about $2,000 and hasn’t stopped. He sharpened his games in poker room cash matches at the 2/5NL poker table. Phil Ivey has been battling this guy non-stop for the last number of weeks. Almost all of Ivey’s competitors go down in flames after Phil defeats them. Sbrugby is not like most of Phil’s opponents.

Sbrugby knows how to play with the greatest player in the world. He wagers a very fierce style and is relentlessly applying pressure on his opponents. Whenever he sees weakness in his opponent, he will put his opponent to the test. His amazing skill to scrutinize his competitor’s cards places him alongside the best on the globe. Brian Townsend is displayed in the third season of GSN’s HSP (High Stakes Poker). Brian is 1 of a number of new web whiz kids who are dominating web poker.
