Rex Clinkscales

Rex Clinkscales is one of a number of pros who left Las Vegas, hopped a plane and headed east for the WPTDeepStacks-Tampa series. His appearance in the Main Event marks his first time in the property’s new, state-of-the-art poker room.


Clinkscales couldn’t find a bag during yesterday’s Flight B, but Flight C is shaping up to be a different story. On a Qc6d3h9hAh board, he was heads up and first to act. Clinkscales’ opponent held about 15,000 chips and Clinkscales put him at risk. The opponent called off and Clinkscales flipped over Qh8h for a flush. The opponent turned over KxQx and hit the rail.

That pot grew Clinkscales to about 70,000 chips and he’s nearly tripled up in the first three hours of the day.
