Don Nguyen: {x-}{x-} / {7-}{2-}{k-}{9-}
Erick Lindgren: {x-}{x-} / {4-}{q-}{q-}{5-}

We caught up with the action on fourth street, where 2008 World Series of Poker Player of the Year Lindgren called a bet from Nguyen. He called another on fifth, but folded on sixth street.

Lindgren: {x-}{x-} / {k-}{3-}{9-}{9-} / {x-}
Max Pescatori: {x-}{x-} / {7-}{k-}{7-}{a-} / {x-}
David Benyamine: {x-}{x-} / {9-}{4-}{9-}{4-} / {x-}

On the very next hand, Lindgren brought it in, Pescatori completed, and both Benyamine and Lindgren called. Benyamine bet out on fourth when Pescatori was dealt a king, Lindgren called all in, and Pescatori called.

Benyamine fired again on fifth, but slowed down on sixth, check-folding when he made two pair on board. He smiled and tabled a {4-}, signifying that he actually had a full house.

Lindgren: {6-}{3-}
Pescatori: {a-}{2-}

Both players had two pair, and Lindgren was drawing live, but when Pescatori pulled a {5-} on seventh street to give him {a-}{2-}{5-}{7-}{k-}, Lindgren couldn't make a better hand. He mucked his seventh card, and is off to register for the noon event.
