Lindgren Doubles Up

We managed to make our way to Table 376 and found Paul Foltyn making it 3,000, the player on his immediate left, Jamie Armstrong then reraised and made it 6,400. When action folded around to Erick Lindgren in the big blind he three bet and put 16,000 in the middle. Foltyn folded and Armstrong moved all in. Lindgren made the call and was at risk of being eliminated because Armstrong had him covered.

Lindgren: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Armstrong: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

With a {J-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Spades} flop Lindgren was looking to be in great shape to double up. With the {7-Hearts} on the turn Armstrong picked up a flush draw. The {7-Clubs} on the river sealed the deal though and Lindgren was able to double up with a full house, eights over sevens.
