Lindgren Loses With His Favorite Hand
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Action was three ways with 8,000 in the middle and 8♠4♥A♥ on the board when Rene Majed checked from the small blind and Youzou Yin checked from the big blind. Erick Lindgren tossed out 2,000 from the next seat over and Majed called before Yin got out of the way.
The turn was 9♥ and Majed check-called a bet of 8,000 from Lindgren to see J♣ on the river.
Both players checked the river and Majed turned over 8♥6♥ for the flush.
"This is my favorite hand," Lindgren said to Majed as he tossed it in the muck without showing. "Only you know what that is."
