So Long Lindgren

Erick Lindgren
Erick Lindgren

No sooner had we reported on Erick Lindgren's double up than did he lose a big pot and then go on to bust the next hand.

Lindgren was in the small blind on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts} and and called a bet of 1,100 from the player in the button. The player in the big blind came along as well.

The river was the {7-Clubs} and all three players checked to see the {3-Spades}. Lindgren checked, the player in the big blind bet 2,700, and the dealer folded. Lindgren made the call, but mucked when the big blind showed {a-Clubs}{7-Spades}.

After the hand Lindgren was down to just 300 chips. He got it all in on the next hand from the button after action was limped to him with the big blind player being the only caller.

Lindgren: {a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Big Blind: {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

He may have been ahead at the start, but Lindgren quickly fell behind when the flop came {2-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Spades}. The turn and river were no help to Lindgren, falling {3-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and he shook some hands before making his exit.
