Lindgren Doubles Early

We knew Erick Lindgren would be all in early and often as he only started the day with 3,700 chips, and it looks as though he already doubled (and some) to right around 8,500. At the very end of Day 1B he asked the floor, "Can I just take these chips home? I don't want to waste a perfectly good bag." Well, now he is at least on the right track with nearly 20 big blinds. He's still got a lot of work to do if he wants to build up a stack, but we saw Phil Hellmuth come back from lower yesterday so we know it's possible.
