Lindahl's Rockets Oust Big Slick

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player in early position raised to 2,100 and Patrick Chung called on the button. David Lindahl was in the small blind and decided to make it 7,000. The original raiser jammed for 20,000 and Chung "tanked for at least an appropriate amount of time" before making what he described as "an agonizing fold". Lindahl called and hands were revealed.

Early Position Player: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
David Lindahl: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

The flop was {8-}{9-}{q-}, and with the big slick needing big help in the form of running cards, the {8-} turn left him drawing dead before the {8-} completed the board.

After the hand, Chung revealed he would have had the best hand had he called, but instead the pot got sent to Lindahl who chipped up.
