Team partypoker’s Patrick “Patrick_Leonard” Leonard Enjoys Double Success
Ambassadorial roles in real money online poker might not always be the same, but the idea behind representing a poker room or brand tends – albeit in various degrees – to involve playing in (often big) events, your performances and results naturally coming under some scrutiny from countless poker fans and would-be champions.
As far as partypoker is concerned, their approach when deciding on who is best to spread the word has seen them employ the services of established (very) successful players who have proven their skill and dedication to the game and backed it up at the table in important events.
One such is Team PartyPoker’s Patrick “Patrick_Leonard” Leonard who, as well as giving an effective new meaning to the point of an alias in that we’re hardly likely to forget his actual name, is also the real deal, and absolutely worthy of his position as a partypoker pro.
Already known by many as one of the game’s most successful online poker tournament players of the modern era, the Englishman will be constantly aware of the expectations put on him to keep putting in newsworthy performances which, in today’s tough environment, where every man and his dog seems to have a decent appreciation of the ins and outs of the game, is easier said than done.
However, there’s still plenty in the tank, as the football cray poker pro proved recently by taking down a partypoker flagship event, namely the $150,000 guaranteed Sunday Party tournament.
Tale of the Tape
By the time the original 1,354 entrants had been whittled down to the final table, the remaining nine players were each guaranteed $966 to add to the bounty rewards they’d racked up along the way (and therein lies the beauty of online Bounty tournaments …).
A seasoned and battle-hardened pro, Leonard must have been confident of victory on emerging heads-up with ScumGame and, sure enough, ended up winning, collecting a juicy $18,747 in the process, his final opponent picking up a tidy $11,927 – the kind of consolation prize anyone can be happy with.
