Hinkle Hitting Them Away
Blair Hinkle started the day as one of the shorter stacks in the room, but that didn't stop the World Series of Poker gold bracelet holder from managing to run his stack up to sit in contention with just 60 or so players remaining.
Recently we watched Hinkle open it up to 15,000 from middle position. The action was then sent to the player in the small blind who shoved all-in. It wasn't too much more to Hinkle as he immediately toppled in the call.

The flop made Hinkle give out a slight chuckle. The turn changed nothing, but the river was what Hinkle was looking for.
"Knew it was too good to be true," the eliminated player mumbled as he exited the tournament area.
