Get to Know Paul Newey
On our latest pass through the room, we spotted Paul Newey in the field. If that name doesn't sound familiar, it should. Over the past couple of year, Newey has traveled the circuit playing in some of the most prestigious and highest buy-in tournaments in the world.
Newey, who hails from Tamworth, United Kingdom, is the Chairman of New Wave Ventures and looking to make a name for himself in the poker world. Last summer Newey was one of the many businessmen to play the $1,000,000 buy-in Big One for One Drop, though he ultimately failed to cash.
Back in January, Newey notched his first tournament cash at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. It came in Event #37 $2,000 No Limit Hold'em - Turbo Bounty when he finished seventh for $4,400.
Newey continues to grind, and most players would agree that it's only a matter of time before he captures his first title. Could it be in the 2013 APPT Macau Asia Championship of Poker Main Event? Only time will tell.
