Hankins Takes Down Monster Pot

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

With a {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop in front of them, things between Robert Hankins and Taylor Black escalated... quickly.

Hankins bet 11,000 only to see Black raise it up to 25,000. Hankins three-bet shoved for 93,900 sending Black into the tank. After a moment, Black made the call having Hankins slightly covered.

Robert Hankins: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Taylor Black: {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Both had flopped huge but Hankins was ahead. The {4-Clubs} on the turn gave Black additional outs but Hankins faded the {7-Clubs} on the river to score a massive double up.
