Grant Hinkle has the button in seat 10. Again he raises to 300,000. This time Akenhead just calls.

The flop is {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {10-Spades}. Akenhead, as per usual when he is first to act, checks. Hinkle makes a continuation bet of 450,000. Akenhead folds.

James Akenhead has the button in seat 9 and he limps in. Grant Hinkle checks his option and they see the {Q-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} flop. Hinkle checks and Akenhead fires out a bet of 175,000. Hinkle calls and the {7-Clubs} peels off on the turn. Hinkle checks again and Akenhead slides out 375,000. Hinkle makes the call. The chips are pulled in and the {J-Spades} is the river. Hinkle checks yet again and Akenhead puts a stack of 800,000 in the center. Hinkle calls and Akenhead shows {J-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} for three of a kind. Hinkle flashes {Q-?} {8-?} as he mucked. James Akenhead picks up a big pot.

Hand #124 - Grant Hinkle

Grant Hinkle has the button in seat 10. He raises to 300,000 straight. Again, Akenhead pops him back for 600,000 more. This is almost becoming routine. Hinkle has finally had enough; he puts in a third raise to 1.2 million. Akenhead is counting down his stack, trying to determine how much he would have left behind if he calls. Which he does. A flop worth 2.4 million is coming.

{4-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} is the flop. Akenhead checks to Hinkle, who fires out 1.5 million. Akenhead thinks, then folds. Hinkle wins a big pot to rebuild his stack.

Hand #122 - James Akenhead

Grant Hinkle has the button in seat 10. He makes it 300,000. James Akenhead calls.

The flop is {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {6-Diamonds}. Akenhead checks to Hinkle, who bets 350,000. Akenhead calls.

We get a turn of {A-Clubs}. Both players check. The river comes {7-Clubs} and they both check again. Akenhead shows {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs}; Hinkle shows {K-Spades} {3-Clubs}. Akenhead wins another.
