Back-to-Back for Full Tilt, Lindgren Gets His First WSOP Bracelet in Event #4
Full Tilt must be enjoying their day in the sun as David Singer won Event #3. But, just like in baseball, back-to-back home runs can tilt the score heavily in your favor.

Erick Lindgren, Full Tilt pro, known for his golf prop betting skills (head to Tao of Poker if you haven't heard the story about Lindgren playing 4 rounds for a bet) and over $6 million in poker tournament winnings, can finally call himself a bracelet winner. Event # 4 $5,000 Mixed Hold Em' event was attended by many of poker's elite and one of them walked away with the gold bracelet.

But, Lindgren's finale wasn't easy as heads-up he faced Justin "ZeeJustin" Bonomo, an online prodigy that has quickly made his mark in several live tourneys. 40 hands into heads-up play, Lindgren's A2o made a wheel straight on the turn while completing two pair for Bonomo's 54s, a blank on the river and Lindgren was $374,505 richer plus the WSOP bracelet.
