Sinclair Bounces Back

Jack Sinclair took a big hit when he doubled up Marko Martinkovic a few hands again but has since climbed back after doubling through Marko Martinkovic in a hand that got all in preflop.

Sinclair took a big lead in the flip as the flop landed to give him two pair and nothing changed on the runout to keep the EPT London Main Event runner-up in contention.

After the hand, another player joking tried to nick Sinclair's signature hippopotamus card protector that had made its way into the pot.

"Gonna need that for awhile," Sinclair laughed.

"Where did you get it?" the player asked.

"Subsaharan Africa," Sinclair replied dryly.

Sinclair must've won another big pot or two after the hand because there were a few million more chips in his stack by the time PokerNews returned to the table to put him at the top of the counts.
