Lindgren Shoves Back-to-Back Hands

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Erica Lindgren's stack dropped below the 10 big blind mark and she has set about rectifying that statistic by moving all-in in two consecutive hands. On both occasions, Lindgren's shoves got through and she added the blinds and antes to her now growing stack.

While Lindgren tries to navigate her way through the remainder of this field, husband Erick is busy locking horns with the big guns over in the $1,000,000 buy-in Big One For One Drop.

Spence Doubles Through Ten Cate

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Jeffrey Spence has got a little more breathing room after doubling his stack in a hand with Jonas Ten Cate.

Spence open-shoved for around 85,000 with what turned out to be {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Ten Cate looked him up with {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Spence's pocket tens stayed the best hand as the five community cards fell {4-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs}{A-Spades}.

Moshe Flushes Opponent

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

A player from late position moved all in for his last 160,000 or so and Asi Moshe called from the button.

Moshe: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Opponent: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Moshe was dominated, but had a heart and the board ran out {6-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and Moshe's flush was good to send his opponent to the rail. Moshe added to his stacks and the chips he was still stacking from the previous pot.

McLaughlin Busts Mahmood

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Marc-Etienne McLaughlin opened for a raise from late position and Ayaz Mahmood called from the big blind. The flop was {2-}{a-}{2-} and Mahmood check-raised all in after a bet of 20,000 from McLaughlin. McLaughlin snap-called having flopped trips with {q-Spades}{2-Spades}. Mahmood's {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} needed some help, but it didn't come as the board ran out {k-}{10-}.

Mahmood hit the rail and last year's November Niner, McLaughlin, stacked his chips.

Spence Sends Lindgren to the Rail

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Erica Lindgren
Erica Lindgren

Jeffrey Spence has busted Erica Lindgren, who is now free to rail her hubby Erick in the One Drop event.

Lindgren moved all-in from the button for around eight big blinds and Spence called from the big blind. It wa Lindgren's {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} versus the {2-Clubs}{2-Spades} of Spence. The {J-Hearts}{3-Spades}{J-Diamonds} flop gave Lindgren some additional outs because Spence's hand could have become counterfeited. The {10-Clubs} turn was followed onto the board by the {A-Clubs} and Lindgren was gone.

"Good game, good luck," said Lindgren as he headed out of the tournament area.

Spence: {q-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Jackson: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Vallee: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Vallee eliminated two players and got up to near average chip stack.

Moshe Cold Four-Bets

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

How do you add more than 70,000 chips to your stack without the need to showdown any cards? Follow in Asi Moshe's footsteps and fire a cold four bet to 105,000 after the player under the gun raised to 20,000 and that opening raise was three-bet to 48,000.

Nobody wanted to tangle with Moshe after he cold-four bet and the pot was all his.
