Return of the Mack(ey)

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

James Mackey is not large, but he is in charge after he busts Matt Sterling. After the cutoff made it 24,000 to go, Sterling reraised to 194,000 -- leaving himelf only 40,000 in chips. James Mackey moved all in over the top of Sterling. The original raiser laughed as he quickly mucked, and we were off to the races, as it was Mackey's {10-Diamonds}

slightly ahead of Sterling's {A-Spades}

. The final board read {8-Clubs}

, and Sterling was out.

James Mackey is a 21-year-old former college student who left school to play poker, and now is close to 900,000 in chips -- way ahead of the rest of the field.
