Tom Schneider Doubles through Erick Lindgren

Action folded around to Tom Schneider in the cutoff seat and he raised to 35,000. The button, Erick Lindgren, took a peek at his cards and then announced a raise to 140,000. Action folded back around to Schneider and he eventually made the call. Schneider tossed out just one card, the {J-Clubs}. Lindgren took one card as well.

After the draw, Schneider slowly checked his hand and then started to count his chips. After about 45 seconds, he announced "all in." Lindgren asked for a count and the dealer stacked up 166,000. Lindgren called and Schneider instantly turned up {8-?} {6-?} {5-?} {4-?} {2-?}. Lindgren's look quickly went from optimistic to disappointed as he tossed his cards in. Schneider doubled up and is now working with 651,000 chips.
