Lindop Fades The Backdoor Straight
Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Down to just 40,000, Alex Lindop was all in and at risk, Anson Tsang was the one that looked him up on the button.
Alex Lindop: 
Anson Tsang: 
On the 
flop, Lindop hit middle set and someone said "drawing dead," referring to Tsang's hand. However, the 
turn gave Tsang a lot of outs for a straight. The 
river was a blank and Lindop doubled.
