The Bubble Bursts

As predicted, Pete Linton was the first man to have to survive a bubble time showdown, and with {A-Hearts}{9-Spades} versus {A-Diamonds}{4-Spades} he was in superb shape. But the Poker Gods are tricky customers, and although a relatively raggy {3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{6-Spades} board threatened to give Linton the pot, the river came a {4-Hearts} to deal the Nottingham based player the very cruelest of blows. He exits in 46th.
