Both checked to see the {7-Clubs} river which Markholt bet 255,000 at. Lindgren folded.

Hand #161: Lee Markholt raised to 100,000 on the button. Erick Lindgren called from the big blind and the flop fell {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Lindgren checked, Markholt bet 100,000, and Lindgren called. The {4-Spades} landed on the turn and was checked by both. Lindgren bet 100,000 after the {9-Clubs} river and Markholt called. His cards weren't announced, but he won the pot with a pair of queens.

Hand #162: Erick Lindgren raised to 100,000 on the button and took down the pot.

Hand #159: Markholt opened for 100,000, Lindgren called, and the flop came {8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}. Lindgren checked to Markholt, and then called a 100,000 bet.

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Jonathan Little - 3rd Place
Jonathan Little - 3rd Place

Hand #150: Markholt raised to 100,000 from the button, and Little quickly shoved all in for roughly 935,000. Lindgren immediately moved all in over the top, with his big stack, and Markholt got out of the way for the two to battle it out.

Showdown:

Little: {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Lindgren: {J-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Lindgren woke up with a monster in a three-handed game, and his pair put him way out in front of Little's ace-high hand. With the crowd roaring on both sides of the Mothership stage, each half rooting for their horse, the dealer burned and turned.

Flop: {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}

Little found a pair on the flop, but he still needed help on the subsequent streets. The {2-Hearts} on the turn gave Little additional outs to the wheel straight, but the {k-Hearts} was a brick, and he headed for the payout desk in 3rd place.
