Pot for Pete

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante
Pete Linton
Pete Linton

Pete Linton's poker career was born in the same fire that produced EPT champion Julian Thew and nose-bleed specialist Sam Trickett. The trio used to all play in the same Nottingham cash games a few years ago before all three saw respective success.

[Removed:480] had opened to 600 preflop before Linton made it 1,600 from the button. Divkovic called to see a {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop where both players checked. Divkovic led for 2,000 on the {8-Diamonds} turn but Linton called to see the {9-Hearts} on the river. This time Divkovic was more cautious and he checked.

Linton fired a bet of 3,000 which had Divkovic tanking for several minutes before the latter elected to give up the hand.
