Never at a loss for words, the 21 year old Clayton leaves his marks on both poker tables and blogs alike. After working at the self-proclaimed "communist regime" of Best Buy for a summer during high school, Clayton used his minimum wage paychecks to create a bankroll for .5/$1 LHE.
Clayton finished 2 years of study at the University of Georgia (changing majors 6 times) before putting school on hold and poker at the forefrunt.
In August 2007, Clayton's hard work paid off in a beautiful display of variance, finishing 2nd in the Full Tilt Poker FTOPS Main Event for $240,345.
Clayton credits Ed Miller (for his book "Small Stakes Holdem" that jumpstarted his micro-stakes limit holdem career), a core group of local friends, and the 2+2 forums as the foundations of his poker career.
Clayton hopes to learn how to cook, write a screenplay, be living on the west coast or abroad with friends, and traveling the world.
He can now be found mainly playing mid-stakes NLHE and PLO cashgames, and occasionally suffering through the Sunday tournaments. Coaching
