Clayton Fletcher Survives Day One of NAPT Mohegan Sun

After beginning the second event of the North American Poker Tour’s inaugural season at an extremely tough table that included Hoyt Corkins, John D’Agostino, and Eric “Peechy Keen” Liu, Clayton Fletcher was moved to a table of unknowns. Twenty minutes later, The Joker was bagging his chips in preparation for action on Day Two of the Main Event at Mohegan Sun.

Day Two found Fletcher on the short stack. Very early he managed to get it all-in with pocket fours versus Shawn Buchanan’s QT. A ten on the flop found the 2007 WPT Mandalay Bay champion chipped up and The Joker heading for the exits.

Fletcher is excited to play more events on the NAPT later this year.

The Joker Makes a Quiet Exit from Aussie Millions Main Event

Things never really got going for Clayton “The Joker” Fletcher at the Crown Melbourne this week. Starting with a chip stack of 20,000, Fletcher took a bad beat early which knocked him down to 8,000. Getting rivered in a blind versus blind confrontation a few hands later brought the stack down to a modest 3,200. And  getting that stack all-in preflop three ways with blinds of 150/300/25 holding 44 versus A9 and KQ did not work out well either once the king finally showed up on the river. All in all, a disappointing day on the felt for our favorite funny guy at the tables.

The Joker will next play in Event #20 here in Melbourne after a weekend of performing at The Last Laugh Comedy Club.

Early Bustout for The Joker at WPT Borgata

With his KK versus an unknown all-in player’s AA, Clayton Fletcher found himself in a rough position at The Borgata last week. Either he would nearly double up (with a lot of luck) or he would be crippled in the tournament after having run his initial 30,000 stack all the way up to 47,500. Alas, it was not in the cards as the aces held up and Fletch saw his stack dwindle all the way down to 5500. About twenty minutes later, aces struck again, this time versus The Joker’s AK, and again luck could not bail our hero out. He finished in 714th place out of 1017 players.

Here’s hoping for better poker news soon from Clayton Fletcher…
