Hinkle's Set Prevails
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Action picked up with WSOP bracelet winner Blair Hinkle involved in hand with the board showing K♣10♦4♣.
Hinkle, who was on the button, had just raised his opponent, who called to bring on the turn in a pot with more than 16,000.
The dealer placed A♥ on the turn and Hinkle’s opponent checked. Hinkle took his time, alternating glances to his opponent and the board, before moving all in with his remaining 26,000.
Hinkle’s opponent counted out chips, then placed them in front of his stack. After up to 30 seconds elapsed, the opponent made the call to put Hinkle at risk.
Blair Hinkle: 4♠4♥ 
Opponent: A♣K♥
Hinkle’s flopped bottom set was ahead of his opponent’s top two pair, and Hinkle took the pot when 8x arrived on the river.
