Linster Eliminates Brousseau in Monster Pot

Daniel J O'Hair

Niveau 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Jeremy Brousseau raised 45,000 from middle position and was called by William Kopp in the cutoff and Mike Linster in the big blind.

Linster checked to Brousseau on the Q♦9♠8♦ flop and he bet 100,000. Kopp folded, but Linster then check-raised to 300,000. Brousseau called.

Linster bet pot on the 6♥ turn, which was enough to put Brousseau all in for his last 600,000. Brousseau called and hands were tabled.

Jeremy Brousseau: Q♥J♦3♠2♦
Mike Linster: A♦J♠10♦10♠

The 3♦ completed the board, leaving Brousseau without a low against Linster's straight and eliminating him from the tournament.
