A former paperboy has won £4 million after quitting his round to become a full-time poker player.

Andrew Feldman, 21, from Watford, racked up the fortune in less than three years, reports The Sun.

He has already splashed out on a £90,000 Audi R8 supercar as well as a plush £500,000 pad.

Andrew began playing online games of Texas Hold'em for £1 a time from his bedroom. Within months he was winning tournaments and moved on to big-money games.

He said: "It wasn't long before I was earning more in a day at poker than I would in five years delivering papers."

Mr Feldman, who earned £25 a week as a paperboy, has signed up with US online giant Full Tilt Poker and travels the world playing in televised tournaments with the biggest stars.

But he added: "I am something of an introvert. I don't show off with my money."
