It doesn\u2019t matter if they\u2019ve triumphed in a $0.50 tournament, or have crushed $2\/$5 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/blog\/en\/checked-new-plo-schedule.html\">PLO cash games<\/a>. Every victory is a reason to celebrate.<\/p>\n<p>One partypoker player whose success we\u2019re celebrating right now is <strong>Balazs \u201cTheNitor\u201d Szabo<\/strong>. The Hungarian student recently won the $0.02\/$0.05 No-Limit Hold\u2019em Cash Game Leaderboard and padded his bankroll with $500, or 1,000 big binds at those stakes.<\/p>\n<p>Balazs lives with his brother in his native Hungary. By day he studies at university, by night he hits the partypoker tables.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was born into a gambling family,\u201d explained Balazs, \u201cso I played a lot of different card games from a young age. I started <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/\">playing online poker<\/a> when I was 18, but it was only for small stakes. I only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/en\/how-to-play\/texas-holdem\">play No-Limit Hold\u2019em<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Hungarian has improved his skills over the years but still prefers to play in lower stakes games. You\u2019ll probably have bumped into him at the <strong>$0.02\/$0.05 fastforward tables<\/strong> at some point. It\u2019s at these tables that Balasz won the leaderboard from. Obviously, he\u2019s a big fan of the promotion!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really love this promotion. There were similar promotions at partypoker previously but they didn\u2019t seem as good as this one. The best thing about this promotion is that you have the chance to win even if you play low stakes. Everyone has a chance without having to battle with higher limit players. <strong>I\u2019ve never seen a promotion as good!<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Everyone who we\u2019ve spoken to about the Cash Game Leaderboards states the <strong>increased traffic<\/strong> at their limits being a major benefit. Balazs thinks the same.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere didn\u2019t used to be many people playing in the early hours, but now there are always 100 or more at the tables.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Balasz decided early that he was going to go for the win. He told the partypoker blog, \u201cfinishing second or third was not an option for me.\u201d Victory didn\u2019t come easy, Balasz played between six and nine tables for up to nine hours per day, but it was worth it when he finished at the top of his leaderboard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m planning on playing higher limits, but I will also withdraw some money too. I always search for better and better promotions, but partypoker is running some awesome ones so I\u2019m planning on staying here and winning those too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Good luck to Balazs and to every other partypoker player hitting our tables.<\/p>\n<h3>Ready to join the party?<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re ready to jump into the action, then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/en\/download\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>click here to download partypoker and get started<\/strong>!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you already have an account with us, click here to <a href=\"https:\/\/promo.partypoker.com\/en\/promo\/launch\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>open partypoker and hit the tables!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We love hearing about our players\u2019 success stories.
