Partypoker has pulled off a major coup by signing a deal with Sam Trickett, the No. 1 player on the United Kingdom’s all-time money list, and making him a brand ambassador.
Trickett has won more than $20.5 million from live poker tournaments since bursting onto the scene in 2007. The Nottingham based pro won a £110 buy in tournament in May 2007 for £3,610 and it was the catalyst for great things.
In 2008, Trickett finished fourth in a $5,000 no-limit hold’em event at the World Series of Poker for $245,927 and followed up that impressive result with a victory in the £1,060 Grosvenor UK Poker Tour Luton Main Event for £109,050 only a couple of months later.
