Erick Lindgren:
Erick Lindgren grew up in Northern California, where his competitive streak was honed playing sports. Erick was MVP of his league as a shooting guard in basketball and an all league quarterback. After high school he moved on to college, but dropped out of Butte Junior College in his second year there. Erick knew early on his livelihood was tied to gambling, but he started out as a blackjack dealer before he got serious about poker.
Twenty-seven years old and single, Erick Lindgren now makes Las Vegas his home. When he's not playing poker he spends his time traveling, or playing golf and basketball. Also a movie-goer, his favorite movie is Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. He's had a lot less time for his hobbies recently because he's been on such a roll with poker.
With his tournament winnings totaling over $2 million, Erick Lindgren has won three major tournaments since December 2002. The largest and most recent victory is his win at the Poker Million III, where he walked away with the million dollar top prize. He won the 2003 WPT event in Aruba and took home $500,000 for that win. But Erick's winning isn't restricted to tournament play. While his winning hand at the Poker Million was the largest pot he's played overall, he's won $40,000 in a single hand in cash play. A positive thinker, Erick doesn't keep track of his bad beats, so we don't know the most he's lost in a single hand.
Erick considers his toughest opponents to be Phil Ivey, Gus Hansen, and Daniel Negreanu because of their incredible knowledge of the game and their aggressive style. He tries to improve his play by watching and playing against the best. Based on his recent results, it's a plan that seems to be working.
