Lindgren claimed the pot and the match with two pair, queens and fives, and he'll play the winner of the David Williams v. Scott Fischman match in the Round of 16.
"That was the only hand I could beat," said Lindgren after the match. "I knew the queen hit him. It was the only hand I could beat and he had it."
Erick and Eli have met twice in the history of the NBC Heads-Up Championships (once this year and once last year in the Round of 64) and Erick has won both meetings.
