Lindgren Hanging On

An opponent raised from middle position and Erick Lindgren reraised all in from the small blind. The MP player called with {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. Lindgren was behind with {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, but the board ran out {Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The straight kept Lindgren alive with 9,000 in chips.
