McClendon Busts One And Builds A Huge Stack

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

A middle position player called the 600 big blind as did the button. The small blind folded and James McClendon, the big blind, checked his option.

McClendon lead for 2,800 on the {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop. The player in middle position moved all in and the button folded. McClendon made the call with {8-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a flopped flush and was up against his opponent's {a-Spades}{2-} for two pair. The flush held up through the turn and river and McClendon took the pot and eliminated his opponent from the tournament. While it can't be confirmed at this point, it appears McClendon may have the chip lead.
