Erick Lindgren Eliminated in 6th Place ($82,303)

Erick Lindgren - 6th Place
Erick Lindgren - 6th Place

Wow.

Bruno Launais opened to 90,000 from under the gun and Erick Lindgren three-bet to 260,000 right next to him. Action folded to Men "The Master" Nguyen who moved all in for effectively 1,500,000 having Lindgren barely covered. Launais folded and Lindgren went into the tank.

"I could always get lucky," Lindgren joked after a minute of thought.

"You could," Nguyen shot at him. "One time out of a hundred."

"We might have the same hand," Lindgren prodded.

"I'll make you a deal," Nguyen told him. "If you fold and show, I'll show."

Lindgren thought a for a little longer, letting out a heavy sigh before saying, "Call."

It was as if he already knew what two cards Nguyen was going to open. As soon as {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} hit the felt, LIndgren's face dropped and he punched the table. He was in dire straights with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

The flop was low, {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, and the {6-Spades} brought some chop outs for Lindgren.

It was no to be however as the {8-Diamonds} fell on the river eliminating Lindgren from the tournament.

After the elimination, Nguyen is neck and neck with Jeffrey Papola with just under 3,000,000 chips.
