In a battle between two members of the WPT Champions Club, James Carroll raises from the button to 200,000, Erick Lindgren moves all in from the small blind for 800,000, and Carroll calls with Spade 8Heart 8.

Lindgren shows Spade KDiamond Q, and he puts it right next to Carroll’s cards in front of Carroll as the dealer prepares to put out the board.

The flop comes Spade AClub KDiamond 6, and Lindgren pairs his king to take the lead. Carroll jokingly moves the cards so the king-queen looks like it’s his, and Lindgren and a few others laugh.

The turn card is the Club 10, the river card is the Diamond 7, and Lindgren wins the pot with his pair of kings to double up in chips.

Erick Lindgren  –  1,800,000  (18 bb)
James Carroll  –  1,550,000  (16 bb)
