Lindgren Catches Ivey

Level 6
Erick Lindgren
Erick Lindgren

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Justin Liberto opened to 7,000 from under the gun before Erick Lindgren clicked it to 15,000 next to act. In the small blind, Phil Ivey cold four-bet to 60,000. Liberto quickly got out of the way and Lindgren called.

Ivey announced pat and Lindgren patted behind. Ivey then cut out a bet of 175,000 and tossed it into the middle. Lindgren would go deep into the tank as the two players stared each other down. After two minutes, Lindgren tossed in the call.

Ivey announced a jack and Lindgren tabled 9x8x4x3x2x for the winner as he collected a massive pot towards the end of the night.
