Kinkade Hits Speed Hump

Jay Kinkade raised from early position to 800 with Darko Balaban and Jason Speedy making the call in position.

The flop came {K-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and the action checked around. The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and Kinkade led for 1,700. Balaban folded before Speedy popped it up to 4,000 on the button. Kinkade deliberated before making the call.

The river landed the {5-Clubs} and Kinkade checked to Speedy, who was content to check behind. He revealed {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the flush which was good as Kinkade mucked.

Kinkade falls to about 8,000 with Speedy now up to 32,000.
