Lindgren Trips Up to 50k

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante
Erick Lindgren (from Event #3)
Erick Lindgren (from Event #3)

Tim West entered the pot with a raise to 1,200 only to have Erick Lindgren three-bet the cutoff to 3,700.

The small blind smooth-called as West mucked before the dealer dropped a {J-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop. Lindgren continued for 4,200 with his opponent making the call as the {3-Diamonds} landed on the turn.

Faced with another check, Lindgren pushed out a 9,500-chip bet which was called by the small blind as the dealer delivered the {J-Diamonds} on the river.

The small blind tapped the table once more before Lindgren cut out a bet amounting to 15,500. His opponent went deep into the tank before making the call, only to muck at the sight of Lindgren's {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} as the recently wed pro moves to over 50,000 in chips.

Freddy Deeb Eliminated

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

Freddy Deeb was all in for his last few thousand chips with the {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} preflop. He was up against the {9-Spades}{8-Spades} for Ayaz Mahmood, last year's $10,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship champion.

The flop came down {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} to put Mahmood in the lead with a pair of eights. The turn was the {6-Clubs} and the river the {K-Spades}. Both of those missed Deeb, which meant Mahmood got the win and earned the elimination with his two pair, eights and sixes.

Affleck Busts Lewis

Matt Affleck had raised to 900 before Toby Lewis came back over the top with a reraise to 2,350. Action folded back to Affleck and he moved a tall stack of yellow T1,000 chips forward to set Lewis all in. Lewis snap-called as if he couldn't get his money in fast enough against Affleck.

Affleck: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Lewis: {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Affleck won the pot, eliminating Lewis from the tournament.

"You must be one crazy guy," said another player at the table to Affleck. Affleck responded with a smile.
