Better late than never, Andrey! Andrey Pateychuk`s whirlwind end to 2011 earns him the PTPR Award for 2011 PTPR Breakthrough Player of the Year.
What did we know about Pateychuk prior to the WSOP Main Event this past summer? Well, other than a few small scores - including a Top 5 showing at the Merit Poker Open in May of 2010 - we didn't know jack about Andrey Pateychuk.
Just a few months later and he's the talk of the town. I am personally so impressed with Pateychuk's recent performance that I had to talk about him during my recent phone interview with @pkrgssp on the Jeff Walsh Show on Quad Jacks Radio.
In less than two months, Pateychuk has secured 2/3 of the Poker Triple Crown and the way things are going, we are not betting against a WSOP bracelet in the summer of 2012 for the Russian.
Pateychuk and fellow countryman Maxim Lykov are definitely the future - and the present - of poker in Russia. Look for Pateychuk to continue his ascension towards poker's elite in 2012.
