Linda Johnson Has Been Eliminated

One of the great ambassadors of the game, Linda Johnson, was just eliminated from today's event. Often called the "First Lady of Poker," Linda won a Razz bracelet back in 1997 and has been the floor announcer on the World Poker Tour for each of its six seasons. She's also one of four people to win the Brian Saltus Award, given to a poker personality who exhibits class, dignity and courage. The other winners of that award are Barry Greenstein, Maureen Feduniak and Robert Williamson III.

Linda ran into Brent Carter's monster hand (he had Aces for the high and A-3 for the low) and that hand brought Linda's day to an end.
