Lupo Leads from Pillar to Post
After opening the elimination floodgates, Lupo was able to take out two more players on route to a showdown with David Clarke. Both established players, the heads-up battle went back-and-forth before Lupo made a decisive move.
Following an all-in from Clarke, the New Jersey native made a call with A
With two cards to come, only a ten or a queen could change things. When neither emerged, Clarke’s avatar faded to grey as the final pot slid towards Lupo.
