Event Info
Akenhead checks the highly coordinated flop. Hinkle bets 200,000 and wins the pot.
The tournament director has instructed the gallery, who offered up some scattered applause on that hand, "Please be quiet. We have people trying to sleep."
The flop comes and (surprise) Akenhead checks. Hinkle makes a bet of 400,000. I feel like I'm stuck in a Moebius strip. This time, Akenhead mixes it up with a raise to 1,000,000. Hinkle quickly reraises all in. Could this finally be the hand?
No. Akenhead folds.
Grant Hinkle - 4,200,000
is our flop. Akenhead checks. Hinkle wastes no time in making a continuation bet of 400,000. Akenhead calls.
The turn comes . Check, check. The river comes . Akenhead now bets 500,000. This hand fits a familiar pattern and sure enough, Hinkle folds.
