Karr And Linde In Early Battle of The Blinds

Two of poker's big names, McLean Karr and Per Linde have been seated right next to each other which should create an interesting dynamic on their table. They have already shown they are not afraid to take each other on as shown in the hand below.

We joined the action on a board reading {6-Clubs}{A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} with Karr in the small blind and Linde to his immediate left in the big blind. Karr bet 375 and the methodical Linde sat stoic before making the call. The river brought the {3-Clubs} into play and Karr sat and studied the board for a few moments before reaching for two purple 500 chips and a solitary green 25 chip and announcing "925." The dealer confirmed the amount and after 10, possibly 15 seconds Linde called.

Karr flipped over {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and Linde mucked.
