Lind Leaves Us

A short-stacked George Lind just now found himself all in against two opponents, with the pair having already begun to battle for a side pot before the flop came {6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Lind watched with interest as the first player to act checked, the next bet 2,000 (just under the size of the pot), and the first called.

The turn then brought the {Q-Diamonds} and a deliberate check from the first player. Lind sat with his head titled, his chin resting on his fist, as the second player bet a hefty 5,500. The first quickly reraised all in, forcing a chuckle from Lind. When the second player called with the rest of his chips, Lind was already out of his seat, acknowledging his tourney life was likely near its end.

The first player showed {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} while his opponent was drawing to a flush with {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. The river was the {10-Spades}, and two more players — including Lind — had hit the rail.
