    MARVELLOUS MARTY IS THE PARTYPOKER WORLD OPEN CHAMP

    Irish eyes and fortune are smiling on 33 year-old Ulsterman

    33-year-old Marty Smyth of Ulster in Ireland scooped $250 000 this week after winning the PartyPoker.com World Open IV in London, triumphing over 72 other entrants in the $8,000 buy-in event that generated a total prize pool of $576,000. The final table line-up was impressive to say the least, and included Neil Channing, recent Manchester GUKPT winner Marc “Mr Cool” Goodwin, Andy “The Spider” Ward, Dixie Dean and Ryan Fronda.

    “I’m delighted and very proud,” said Smyth, who won the 2007 Irish Open and has made the final table in the Poker Million the last two years. “With the way Neil (Channing) is running at the moment he was the last person I wanted to take on heads-up. I hope this sparks a run for me as good as his! I’m so happy to win the trophy and the money will come in handy for Vegas.”

    Excellent!

    Couldn't happen to a nicer guy (or a better player)......The results Marty has had over the last few years is incredible.

    some northy at the red cow was harpin on about the sponsorship deal he's getting w/ boyle supposedly it's an upfront pool of dough w/ a specified #of donkaments he has to play and 15% winnings goes back into the pool and he profits from the rest sounds like the sweetest sponsorship deal ever. I always thought if you went down the sponsorship route and were +ev in tourneys you would get screwed no end but this sounds like a sweet setup

    Yeah and it's genuinely good to see a player deservedly doing well,always thought he was an excellent player and looks like he's finally reaping the rewards on the tournie front.
