Alfonso Timoteo Rubias is a Spanish professional poker player with notable live and online tournament successes, including a fourth-place finish in the 2024 LAPC Main Event for $108,710 and a win in the online poker XL Inferno Mini Main for $33,833. He is recognized for his aggressive play, highlighted by a key bluff at the LAPC final table.
Alfonso Timoteo, also known online as "pAAdentr0," first gained attention in the online poker scene with a third-place finish in a PokerStars SCOOP event in May 2018, earning over $30,000. Shortly after, he won the XL Inferno Mini Main Event on online poker, securing $33,833 after a heads-up deal.
Timoteo has been a consistent presence at major live tournaments. At the 2024 Los Angeles Poker Classic (LAPC) Main Event ($10,000 buy-in), he reached the final table for the second consecutive year, finishing fourth for $108,710. He was the chip leader at one point but was eliminated after a three-barrel bluff. The year prior, he placed third in the same event.
In December 2024, Timoteo cashed for $50,000 by finishing 64th in the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas, a prestigious high-stakes tournament.
Timoteo is known for an aggressive approach, often applying pressure with large bets and well-timed bluffs. His elimination hand at the LAPC Main Event exemplified this style: he opened with Q♣J♥ and fired three barrels, shoving on the river, only to be called by Nick Grippo who held A♦9♣. Despite the loss, his willingness to take risks has led to deep runs in major events.
While exact lifetime earnings are not fully documented, Timoteo's known live and online cashes exceed $200,000, establishing him as a respected Spanish competitor on the international circuit.
