Hinkle First Over a Million
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Blair Hinkle, who is in pursuit of his fourth RGPS Main Event title in 2019, has been on fire since the three-table redraw and has now become the first player over seven figures.
In a recent hand, there was around 200,000 in the pot and a board reading 
when Hinkle checked from the big blind and Eric Bunch bet 95,000 from the button.
Hinkle called and then checked again on the 
river. Bunch slid out a bet of 200,00 and Hinkle didn't take too long to call with 
for aces and eights, which bested Bunch's 
.
