Mike Linster Receives $200 Bonus For Bluffing

Allen Kessler just passed along an interesting hand from his table.

After a flop that brought two queens and a low card, WPT Champions Club member Mike Linster and another player found themselves in a reraising war.

When the other player asked if a fold would get Linster to show his cards, Linster said he’d show his hole cards for $10. His opponent ups the ante and says that if Linster is bluffing, he’ll pay him $200.

His opponent folds, showing one card — a queen for flopped trips.

Linster shows 10-8 for a complete bluff to collect the pot, and his opponent pays Linster the $200.
