Lindgren Wheelin' Over Tran

We caught up with the action just as Erick Lindgren, who was on the small blind, bet 11,000 on the turn with the board reading {2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. JC Tran made the call from the big blind.

The river revealed the {A-Spades}, prompting a 17,000 bet from Lindgren. Tran counted out a call and shipped it into the middle. Lindgren showed the {3-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for a rivered wheel. Tran mucked his cards.

"So that's how you make a final table?" another player asked.

"...Gotta make wheels!" Lindgren replied.
