partypoker ambassador Patrick “pleno1” Leonard is now ranked eighth in the world after breaking through the 9,000-point barrier in the PocketFives.com online poker rankings.
Leonard has been ranked as highly as number one in the world and has recently been locked in a battle for the number one spot in the United Kingdom. Leonard is now more than 200 points clear at the top of the UK standings after a couple of large scores were added to his profile.
A runner-up finish in the partypoker Super Sunday High Roller-SHR: $100K Gtd netted Leonard $26,500 and a further $8,183 went into Leonard’s partypoker account when he finished fifth in the Sunday Major-HR: $150K Gtd High Roller.
Michael Chi “mczhang” Zhang is the number two in the UK and 12th in the world, his highest global rank yet. Both Leonard and Zhang are now in Las Vegas for the 2018 World Series of Poker, which gives third-place Jonathan “proudflop” Proudfoot a chance to close the pair’s lead.
Proudfoot has been in superb form of late and that form now translates to a 17th place on the worldwide leaderboard.
Another player who has reached an all-time high is Dean “muggggy” Quinn. The Cornwall-based grinder is now ranked 10th in the UK and 61st in the world. Quinn seems to do most of his grinding at partypoker where he is rapidly approaching $750,000 in winnings.
