Lucky Lindley

Christina Lindley came into today with just 14 big blinds, so we knew that she would be active very early on. Sure enough, we went over to her table, and saw that she was in the middle of an all in hand. Sandra Swearingen, who has been very active according to the post hand talk, opened for a raise under the gun. Action folded to Lindley, who moved all in from the button for 14,000. The blinds folded, and Swearingen called her off with a monster.

Swearingen: {k-}{k-}
Lindley: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Lindley was far behind, but she stormed into the lead when the flop came out {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. The turn came the {10-Hearts}, giving Swearingen a queen for an out, but the river brought the {8-Clubs}. Lindley scored the double up, while Swearingen took a hit to her still healthy stack.
