Hinkle Climbing
RunGood Ambassador Grant Hinkle was recently seen with less than 10 big blinds, only to be seen shortly thereafter with 26,200 that he re-jammed from the small blind over a cutoff open to 3,200 from Joe Corbin and a call from Jeff Grimes on the button. The big blind then called all in for less, sending Corbin deep into the tank.
"F**k me," said Corbin, folding after nearly two minutes passed.
"How much is the total?" asked Grimes afterward, with action upon him. The dealer confirmed the amount and Grimes folded.
