Hinkle Yields to Opponent's Pressure
We caught up with the action on a 
flop in a heads-up pot. Blair Hinkle checked from the big blind to his opponent in the hijack position, who flung an orange 5,000 denomination chip into the middle. Hinkle responded by putting 9,800 into the middle, to which some tablemates said he had to make it 10,000. Hinkle obliged and made it 10,000 to go. Undeterred, his opponent re-popped it to 22,000 and Hinkle folded.
"I guess I saved some money," Hinkle said. "I meant to make it 13,000."
In any case, Hinkle is currently sitting on 120,000.
