Hal Lubarsky Takes an Early Pot
Fans of the ESPN coverage that has brought the World Series of Poker into living rooms around the world since 2003 may remember the name Hal Lubarsky.
In 2007, Lubarsky became the first legally blind player to compete in the WSOP Main Event, and the following year he achieved a certain level of fame in the poker world via extended television coverage of his Main Event run.
Today, Lubarsky is in the house competing on the WSOP stage yet again, and after a recent hand he is off to a great start.
We saw Lubarksy call a raise of three bets before the flop, with four players heading to the 
flop. The first player to act checked, and the preflop three-bettor fired away with a c-bet. After listening to his assistant describe the action, Lubarsky quickly tossed a blue T500 tournament chip into the middle for a raise. This cleared the field back to the bettor, who flatted to take the 
on the turn.
After it was checked to him, Lubarsky bet the turn, and his opponent mucked without further thought. The pot was pushed to Lubarsky, and he is pointed in the right direction here on the first day of play.
