Expanding the article

Came by this page today, having followed Brian Townsend for some time on various Poker forums across the net. I must say I am amazed that he was considered for deletion, but given the state of his page I can see where some users got that idea. We need to expand this page. Brian is one of the biggest names in Poker, regularly playing huge matches followed online on various highstakes poker sites. So how about we start writing a worthy entry, much like there is one for other notable poker players such as Daniel Negreanu, Phil Ivey, Barry Greenstein and Gus Hansen.
