McLovin in the Lead

Gary Clarke

Gary Clarke

Gary “McLovin” Clarke, the Irish whippersnapper who has a string of excellent results to his name but no Unibet Open cash thus far, appears to be our current chip leader.

Clarke told me that he woke up with aces under the gun and raised to 450. The player to his left flat-called, before a short-stacked player a few seats down went all in for 4,500. Clarke called the shove, only for the gentleman who had originally flat-called Clarke’s raise to re-shove. This is the stuff that poker dreams are made of.

Clarke: AA
Re-shover: KK
Short stack: AK

Clarke duly scooped the lot, and is now at over 50,000. He’s McLovin it!
