Team Titan Player Sam Trickett Wins Partouche Poker Tour Main Event

LONDON, November 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

The Titanpoker.com sponsored player was chosen as Britain's Best Cash Player and scored huge tournament wins at the 2011 Aussie Millions.

Team Titan player Sam Trickett has continued his string of huge successes representing Titanpoker.com at poker tournaments around the world by winning the Partouche Poker Tour Main Event and its €1,000,000 first prize.

Sam overcame a 2-1 chip lead held by American Salman Behbehani to win the prestigious €8,500 buy-in event, staged at the Palm Beach Casino in Cannes. The tournament began in September and when the tournament reached the final table stage, it was delayed for two months with Sam holding a slight lead over his eight opponents.

Chosen in September as Best Cash Player at the second annual British Poker Awards, Sam has consistently demonstrated his skillful tournament play by winning more than $3 million this year prior to the Partouche event. In January, he won the 2011 Aussie Millions $100,000 Challenge at the Crown Casino in Melbourne, Australia, and followed that up with a second place finish in the Aussie Millions $250,000 Super High Roller.

Along with Team Titan colleague Marvin Rettenmaier of Germany, Sam plays on behalf of Titan Poker at the biggest poker tournaments around the world. Poker novices and veteran poker players alike are invited to try out the free poker download at Titan Poker and qualify to play alongside the Team Titan members.
