Lindgren Seeking Back-to-Back Victories

[user24788]

Erick Lindgren won this event last year for a cool million. He's trying to replicate that feat and is in good shape as he begins the final table as the chipleader.

Lindgren had a hot start to 2007 after his victory at the Aussie Millions, but the rest of the year had some mixed results. He made on final table at the World Series of Poekr and finished in 10th place two different times in World Poker Tour Events, but those were the only stand out results.

A repeat victory for Lindgren (along with a $1.25 million first place purse) is something that could not come at a better time.
