Chidwick Chips Up; Lindgren Hits the Rail
Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Picking up the action on the 6♣2♣K♣ flop, with 290,000 chips in the middle. 90,000 of those chips were the maximum Eric Lindgren could win as he was all in. The other 200,000 chips were a side pot between Tsugunari Toma and Stephen Chidwick.
Toma, in the small blind, had been the final aggressor preflop and continuation-bet for 107,000. Chidwick called, and the players saw the 4♥ turn. Toma elected to check this time, and Chidwick took over the betting, placing a wager of 180,000. Toma didn't take too long before folding.
Erick Lindgren: J♠3♠ 
Stephen Chidwick: A♣Q♣
Chidwick had the nut flush and Lindgren was drawing dead. The inconsequential river rolled off the 5♥ as Lindgren headed to the exit.
