Hinkle Traps Perfectly
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player from middle position raised to 10,000 and was called by the small blind Blair Hinkle.
After the flop came 10♥6♥5♠ Hinkle checked to his opponent who bet out 6,000. Hinkle then raised to 23,000 before the middle position three-bet all in for 140,000. Hinkle snap called to put his opponent at risk.
Middle Position: Q♣10♠ 
Blair Hinkle: K♦K♣
Hinkle's opponent walked right into the trap he set, slow playing his pocket kings. The K♥ on the turn left the middle position player drawing dead and the 3♦ on the river officially eliminated him as Hinkle took the massive pot with his set of kings.
