Pete lists himself as being from Las Vegas these days, but we still count him as Leicester - so that's another Notts man......He learned his trade in Stanleys in Derby & Gala Notts, & still drops in to play when he's in the UK. By coincidence, I found myself at Nottingham sat next to Kim, Pete's brother last night. If there are many nicer gentleman in poker than Kim I'll be surprised. Handsome & charismatic too, is Pete's brother..... (Sorry Kim!).

Almost Billy Low Stack overnight, he is now in second place, just a nadge behind ($220k to $218k) leader Todd Wittles. The wonderfully named Wing Wong is in 8th place. Pete has taken a few big pots off him, & seems to have Wing Wongs number.
