Ben Grundy Hoists The Union Jack Higher Than The Rest

Thursday 7th August 2008

Even though there has been a massive rise in the number of online poker games such as PLO and HORSE games, these have been dominated by US players until now. The emergence of UK superstar Ben Grundy has reached new highs with news that he has banked over $2.3 million this year so far – after setting himself a target of $1 million for the full year.

Known as ‘Themilkybarkid’, Ben Grundy has literally taken all of the big online events to the cleaners, so much so that he is currently regarded as one of the best Pot Limit Omaha players in the world today. So what next for the boy from the UK?

For those who want to check out his latest news and events he has his own website packed full of information which will push other players to better themselves. He has also joined Badbeat Poker which is basically an arrangement whereby third parties will fund the cost of Grundy entering events in exchange for a share of his winnings.

Ben Grundy is one of the few UK players to be recognised on the Badbeat Poker scene, something which he is immensely proud of!
