Lindgren Busts Burkholder

Erick Lindgren
Erick Lindgren

We came to the table with the flop reading {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. Erick Lindgren checked, and Steven Burkholder bet 12,000. Lindgren elected to raise to 52,000 total, and Burkholder tanked for a minute before calling for most of his chips. The turn came the {3-Clubs}, and the players got the rest of the money in.

Lindgren: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}
Burkholder: {5-Spades}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}

Lindgren wasn't happy to see that Burkholder had turned the straight, but Lindgren still had full house outs and outs for a higher straight. He hit that higher straight when it came the {5-Hearts}. Lindgren scooped the pot to up his stack to 500,000.

Since that elimination, Issac Baron and Gregory Bastin have also been bounced from the tournament.
