Hand #75 - Grant Hinkle

Chris Ferguson has the button in seat 8. Action folds to James Akenhead in the small blind and he completes. Grant Hinkle checks his big blind option. The flop comes {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {7-Spades} and both players check. The turn comes the {J-Spades}. Akenhead checks and Hinkle slides a bet of 150,000 out. Akenhead thinks for just a bit, then confidently calls. Its the {10-Clubs} on the river. Akenhead taps the felt again and Hinkle fires a bet of 400,000. Akenhead, after about a minute or so, calls. Hinkle tables {9-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} for the straight and Akenhead mucks.
