E-Dog Cuts His Losses

[user66118]

Level 1 : 50/75, 0 ante

Erick Lindgren raised to 200 in middle position, and Daniel Alaei called from the button. The big blind defended, too, but he'd check-fold the flop.

It came {2-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {9-Clubs} , and the first two checked to Alaei. He bet 375, and Lindgren called to go heads up to the {A-Diamonds} turn. Check-check, and the {3-Spades} filled out the board on fifth street. Lindgren check-folded to a bet of 900, and Alaei works his stack back up just a bit. He's down to 12,500 from his full starting stack of 15,000. Lindgren has about 14,000 now.
