Congratulations to Mike Linster, winner of the WPT bestbet open and newest member of the WPT Champions Club. After a fast-moving final table that took just three hours to reach heads-up play, Linster found himself locked in a 111-hand, three-hour battle with David Bell where neither player was willing to give up a pot without a fight.
