He\u2019s played poker since his early teens but began grinding online while studying for his degree at university.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI discovered the game in my early teens playing with friends, but upon arriving at Southampton University I started playing online at the local <strong>Grosvenor Casino<\/strong> throughout my bachelor\u2019s degree. I then took a masters degree at <strong>London School of Economics<\/strong> and by the time I had completed it I was committed to poker and played professionally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amazingly, Dominic got his grind out without trying to top the Legends of the Week leaderboard, it just kind of happened without him knowing about the promotion!<\/p>\n<h2>Waking Up To a Tournament Tickets Package<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cQuite honestly, I didn\u2019t even realise there was a promotion! I saw a video on Twitter on Sunday night about a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/en\/daily-legends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Daily Legends<\/strong><\/a> leaderboard but I was down heaps so didn\u2019t really pay too much attention to it; I was too tilted! The I woke up on Monday to an email letting me know I had won a leaderboard so that was a nice surprise, especially when I checked my account and there was nearly $1,000 worth of tickets in there. It definitely made up for Sunday!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dominic won a tournament package of a <strong>$215 Warrior<\/strong> ticket, three <strong>$150 Daily Legends<\/strong> tickets, and an entry to the $320 buy-in <strong>The 300<\/strong> for taking down Leaderboard 3, which is for our $11 buy-in Daily Legends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m definitely most excited about the $320 tournament. I love a good bounty tournament so looking forward to taking some big scalps. I love the Daily Legends tournaments, it\u2019s helped me keep most of my action in tourneys and I\u2019m very please to see they are well supported. I will take down The Predator one day soon, I can surely only final table bubble it so many times!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We hope Dominic does because we all have that one nemesis tournament, don\u2019t we?<\/p>\n<h2>More Incentive to Play High-Value Tournaments<\/h2>\n<p>Topping the leaderboard is a great achievement and the prizes offered show you don\u2019t have to spend a lot to win big at partypoker. Understandably, Dominic is now a big fan of the Legend of the Week promotion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Legend of the Week is a great promotion and provides even more incentive to play these high-value tournaments and will lead to players with a low average buy-in getting to experience tournaments they wouldn\u2019t have the bankroll for otherwise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aside from taking down The 300, Dominic hopes to end the current year without having to endure a downswing; sorry, we can\u2019t help you there! Before Dominic signed off, he left us with some delightful comments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m very appreciative of the work partypoker do for the players. It\u2019s definitely come on leaps and bounds in recent years and I hope to see continued success for the site.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Learn More About Daily Legends and the Legend of the Week<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/en\/daily-legends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daily Legends<\/a>, as the name suggests, run each and every day at partypoker.
