Sam Trickett plays on behalf of online poker room Titan Poker. In the inaugural 2010 British Poker Awards he received the Best New Player award.

Sam Trickett, a member of Team Titan sponsored by Titanpoker.com, the leading online poker room in Europe, has been nominated for three British Poker Awards.

In the inaugural British Poker Awards in 2010, Trickett received the Best New Player award.

Trickett has demonstrated his skillful tournament play this year by winning the Aussie Millions $100,000 Challenge and by finishing in second place in the Aussie Millions $250,000 Super High Roller.
