Bolger Achieves Two Successes Consecutively
Headline: Malcolm Bolger Takes a Significant Chip Lead at 2025 Summer Super Stack
In the thrilling final stages of the 2025 Summer Super Stack poker tournament held at Deerfoot Inn & Casino, Malcolm Bolger managed to secure a substantial chip lead over his opponents, including Mike Malm.
The pivotal hand that shifted the balance of power occurred when Bolger held ace-king, facing off against Malm's ace-queen. With a queen appearing on the flop, Bolger improved his hand to a set of aces, leaving Malm with no help and ultimately folding his cards. This move significantly boosted Bolger's chip count, now standing at approximately 1.2 million chips.
Meanwhile, Malm's chip count took a hit, dropping to around 100,000 chips. Scot Munro, another final table contender, started the game with 65,000 chips but did not participate in this specific hand.
The hand marked a turning point in the tournament, establishing Bolger as a formidable force to be reckoned with. Although detailed information about the chip counts and hand results for these players throughout the tournament was not readily available, it is clear that Bolger's strategic play and fortunate draw played a significant role in his climb to the top.
As the tournament continues, Bolger, Malm, and Munro will undoubtedly look to capitalise on their placements and winnings. Scot Munro finished 5th, pocketing $25,317, while Mike Malm finished 8th, earning $10,971. Malcolm Bolger, despite finishing 9th, still managed to walk away with $9,283 in winnings[1].

In the spirit of diversifying interests, Malcolm Bolger's poker prowess has earned him a considerable chip lead, while questioning whether he might have similar success in American-football leagues like the NFL, where football is a popular sport. Acknowledging the competitive nature of sports, it's possible that Mike Malm could redeem himself in another discipline, such as professional football, proving that he's more than just a poker player.
