"Bingo Poker" Works Out For Laxdal
Level 9
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Around 40,000 was already in the pot as three players went to a flop of 7♦4♦3♥. A player in middle position then moved all in for 35,000 and the button called, while Logi Laxdal also put in his last 40,300.
Middle-Position Player: A♦Q♦ 
Logi Laxdal: 6♥4♥
Button: J♥J♦
The button was ahead with his jacks, while the middle-position player had the nut flush draw and Laxdal a pair and straight draw. The 4♣ turn improved Laxdal to trips, while the 6♠ river gave him a full house as he scooped the pot. The middle-position player was eliminated, while Laxdal doubled up off the button.
"Bingo poker is good," the button told him.
"I learn from you," Laxdal replied.
"After Level 3, I had 2,600 in chips," Laxdal added.
