Peter "Pete4002" Eastgate, a Team Ladbrokes player aged 22 from Odense in Denmark, is going to take at least $900,670 after making the final table of the World Series of Poker 2008. Peter succeeded where 6,835 players have failed, and will return to Las Vegas to play the WSOP final table on the 9th November against eight other players for the coveted WSOP Main Event bracelet. Peter is the last of a 120-strong Team Ladbrokes contingent that boasted Jon 'skalie' Kalmar who came fifth in last year’s event, new signee to the Ladbrokes stable Jonas 'Nebuchad' Danielsson and Jeff Kimber a Ladbrokes-sponsored pro who busted out in 120th position, cashing for US 41k after his pocket kings were smashed by a pair of nines. In total 81 of the 120 starters of Team Ladbrokes players made it through to Day Two.

Eastgate began the penultimate day in 4th place with over nine million chips and finished the day in fourth place with 18,375,000 chips.
