The 30-year-old Maryland native, better known online as “OMGClayAiken”, has won $2,156,473 in six career World Series of Poker appearances.  The victory at Event #39 - $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball Championship – yielded a cool $224,383.

“It means a lot — especially in a field this tough and at a table this tough,” Galfond said in the moments following his victory. – Ace King, Gambling911.com
