Hinde's Hand Goes Dead

Michael Hinde raised to 24,000 on the button and Scott Burns three-bet to 65,000 in the small blind. Hinde called and the flop came . Burns continuation-bet 80,000, sending Hinde into the tank for over two minutes before finding a call to bring the turn on board.

"I'm all in," announced Burns. Hinde went Full Sherman, going into the tank for more than two minutes once more. He asked Burns how much he had and Burns told him 333,000. Eventually, a clock was called.

The floor came over and let Hinde know he would have 30 seconds to complete his action or his hand would be rendered dead. Those 30 seconds passed with no action happening and Burns was declared the winner of the pot. Hinde took his protector off of his cards and used it to flick them forward to the center of the table, with the pot being sent to Burns afterward.

"I wanted to call you so bad," said Hinde.
