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

It has been another busy weekend of poker action around the world, with a number of online competitions taking place. The online world has been buzzing throughout the coronavirus pandemic, with a number of players moving to online play to fill the void that has been left. There was an announcement last week revealing that casinos in Las Vegas may be re-opening soon.

With the growing number of players online, there has been an increase in the number of competitions that are taking place. The growing number of competitions has helped shake-up the rankings of players in the top 20 of the players from across the world. There is a new name that has reached the top 20 of players in the world, and that is Luke Schwartz.
Schwartz Enters Top 20
There is no doubting that Schwartz is a name that is already very well known, as the British player has won an extensive number of huge competitions. That is especially the case for Schwartz when it comes to the SCOOP schedule. The growing number of competitions has made it possible for Schwartz to reach the top 20.
His biggest performance to date came in the Super Tuesday event last week, as he claimed over one million dollars for finishing third. He also claimed a huge $10,500 for finishing in the same position in the NL 2-7 Single Draw. It would seem that Schwartz’s position is just going to continue to get stronger with every passing week. He has also won a dozen four-figure returns across the season to this point.
However, it is unlikely that he will be able to reach the pinnacle, as Conor Beresford’s form is showing no sign of slowing down. He has enjoyed an incredible run of success over recent weeks, which also includes wins of $14,824 and $34,516 in the Sunday Roller and NLHE SCOOP respectively. Beresford also picked up $50,790 after finishing fourth in the SCOOP High Roller.

There are still a number of players competing for places in the top 20 of the rankings.

Patrick Leonard is in second spot as he has accumulated 8,862 points. Leonard is just over 500 points ahead of Tyler Goatcher.
