Hinkle Takes The Tournament Lead
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
A player raised to 30,000 in the hijack and in the big blind, Blair Hinkle three-bet to 105,000 which the hijack called.
The flop came out A?A?3? and Hinkle continued for 75,000 on the flop which the hijack called.
Hinkle checked the 10? turn where the hijack sized up to 90,000 and Hinkle called.
On the 2? river, Hinkle checked once more and the hijack bet 140,000, leaving himself 90,000 behind. Hinkle thought about it for a little bit of time before moving all in. His opponent shook his head and said "nice hand Blair," before tossing his hand into the muck.
