Partypoker ambassador Patrick Leonard, one of the world’s best online poker tournament players more than $2.7 million in winnings to his name, launched partypoker’s Twitch channel last night, where he streamed a mix session on four tables, playing at a variety of different stakes.
Education seemed at the core of the stream with Leonard. The event was billed as allowing players to get “inside the mind of one of the world’s best poker players, listen to their thought processes, figure out how they put opponents on hands, watch them run huge bluffs and make profitable value bets.” The stream provided the opportunity for players to obtain this valuable information without the cost attached to online poker training sites that offer similar streams.
You can watch yesterdays live stream with Leonard below.

New Ambassador

Glazier has over $1,300,000 in live earnings and will be wearing the partypoker patch at her first live event this weekend, held at the Crown Casino in Melbourne.
“I am proud to join the partypoker team of ambassadors and am extremely excited about the opportunities I see for us in Australia and surrounding territories,” stated Glazier in a recent press release. “I have been closely monitoring the progress partypoker has been making over recent months and look forward to helping them to grow in the Australian market that I know so well.”
