Lindgren Takes Down Massive Pot

After four limps for 100, Erick Lindgren made it 7,500 from the button. The opponent to his immediately left pushed out a three-bet to 23,000 and the rest of the table folded back to Lindgren. Lindgren thought for about thirty seconds before throwing out a call.

The flop came {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Lindgren's opponent continued out for 22,000. Lindgren pondered for a bit once again before calling the bet.

The {J-Clubs} fell on fourth street and Lindgren's opponent moved all in. This time Lindgren acted quickly, snapping with {A-Hearts}{6-Spades} for flopped trips. His opponent showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and was behind.

The {Q-Diamonds} finished the board and Lindgren was able to send one home and significantly increase his stack.
