Clarke Makes a Tough Call

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Patrick Clarke was tanking in the cutoff after a player on the button bet 9,000 on a {3-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades} board. Clarke called, and the river was an {8-Clubs}. Clarke checked and his opponent moved in for 15,525, while Clarke had only about 10,000 left. He tanked for a couple of minutes and called.

"Good call," his opponent said.

Clarke showed {a-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. The dealer flipped over his opponent's mucked cards: {k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

Timothy Ulmer joined the tournament. He's coming off an eighth-place finish at this year's PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
