After working his way up from grinding low-stakes limit games online, Brian Townsend now sits with the biggest players in the world. Most tournament players live for a score of $2 million, but for Townsend, $2 million is just variance. The young man and former University of California, Santa Barbra, student now resides in Las Vegas, and his favorite hangout is none other than the "Big Game" in Bobby?s Room at Bellagio.
Although Townsend is one of the best cash-game players in the world, he rarely plays tournaments. He has lifetime winnings in the low thousands, and he blogs that he has trouble bringing his A-game during events. Regardless, he is considered one of the best players in the world.
