Erick Lindgren, the defending champion of this event, called an under-the-gun raise to 400 from middle position, as did a player in the big blind. The dealer fanned {j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, the action checked to the original raiser, and he continued for 650. Only Lindgren called.

Lindgren called another 1,800 on the turn ({7-Diamonds}), and an all-in bet of 6,525 on the river ({k-Clubs}). The player showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} for a flush draw that turned into a pair of kings, and Lindgren mucked.
