Erick Lindgren opens to 105,000 from the cutoff and is called by Eric Afriat on the button, but then Mike Liang three-bets to 400,000 from the big blind. 

When it gets back to him Lindgren thinks for a few moments before he puts in the four-bet to 800,000, producing a fold from Afriat and a call from Liang. 

On the flop Spade 3Club 7Spade 5, Liang moves all in and is snap-called by Lindgren to put him at risk. 

Liang tables Club 10Heart 10 for an overpaid but Lindgren has him beat with a superior holding of Club KHeart K.

Only a ten can save Liang from elimination, but the runout of Heart 7Heart 2 doesn’t do it and he is sent to the rail in 20th place. 

Erick Lindgren – 4,475,000 (90 bb)
Mike Liang – Eliminated in 20th place ($18,900)
