Luke Schwartz-Orbach (born 15 February 1984) known as Luke Schwartz is a professional poker player, from North London, England.[1]

Poker career[edit]

Schwartz's first cash was at the Grosvenor World Masters in 2005 where he won £3,900 for his eighth-place finish in the £1,000 No Limit Hold'em Main Event. Since then, he has only had a few other results, including £10,850 at the 2005 Harbour Lights in Brighton.[2]

Schwartz is best known for his online prowess, especially on Full Tilt Poker before the site was shut down, where he played under the moniker __FullFlush1__. He started off grinding ring games in 2005 but went broke several times before winning the Sunday Million on Poker Stars in 2007. After this win, Schwartz went back to the cash tables.[3] In recent times, he has taken on some of the biggest names in online poker such as Urindanger, durrrr, and Ziigmund, at the biggest stakes with some success.

Luke Schwartz has played in the Party Poker Premier League[4] several times including Party Poker Premier League 4 where he finished second and won $200,000, beaten by David Benyamine.[5]

What has perhaps garnered more attention is his outspoken nature, both on and off the table. He regards himself as the best tournament player around, and even made his claim at the Monte Carlo High Rollers event to the rest of his table, which included Daniel Negreanu and Phil Ivey.[6]

In December 2009, Schwartz was chip leader heading into the Full TiltPoker Million VIII final table, and eventually finished fourth collecting prize money of $150,000.[7] Schwartz had previously won his heat in the Poker Million VIII, overcoming a table of Bill Edler, Mark Vos and Tony G, before coming from behind to defeat John Duthie heads-up.[8] He then navigated a semi-final featuring Annette Obrestad and Tony Bloom to secure his place in the final. In 2012 at World Series of Poker [the poker players championship] Schwartz finished 4th for over $400,000 dollars. According to High Stakes Database, Schwartz’ cash game losses stand at 775,000.

Schwartz is currently a featured blogger on Black Belt Poker. His comments, many of which divide audiences, are often cited on forums such as Two Plus Two.[citation needed]

For the past week, the Montesino Casino in Vienna, Austria, has played host to the PartyPoker Premier League V. The event began with 16 of poker's most notable players looking to make the final table to compete for a $1.4 million prize pool. On Tuesday, Scott Seiver emerged victorious to captured the $500,000 first-place prize.

After a number of rounds over the last week, six of the eight final-table participants were determined, leaving just two spots up for grabs. Even though six players had earned their spots outright and another six were eliminated from contention, four players were left to compete in a series of playoff heads-up matches on Monday for the last two seats in Tuesday's finale. It was there that Phil Laak defeated Andy Frankenberger in the Group A best-of-three heads-up match, and Tom Dwan bested Yevgeniy Timoshenko in the Group B playoff. With that, the final table was set.

The starting chip counts for the final table were determined by the number of points each player earned during the four preliminary heats.

Here’s how things looked at the start of the final table:
