Hinkle Doubles Through Hover

Facing a raise of 42,000 from Thomas Hover, Blair Hinkle moved all of his 263,000 into the middle. After a slight hesitation, Hover looked him up and saw that his {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} was ahead of Hinkle's {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. The flop dealt a cruel blow as it came {2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}. Hinkle would hold on as the board ran out {4-Hearts} on the turn, and {4-Diamonds} on the river. The double-up saw Hinkle build his stack to around 550,000.
