Fink Hangs On For a Big Triple
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Mark Fink had his stack of 105,000 in the middle on the button and Javier Terrazas reshoved for 120,000 under the gun. Blair Hinkle in the cutoff put both players at risk.
Mark Fink: 9♥9♦
Javier Terrazas: A♣K♣
Blair Hinkle: A♦K♦
Hinkle and Terrazas showed the same hand, while Fink was racing with his nines. The flop came 2♣8♣10♦, while the Q♦ turn gave Terrazas and Hinkle straight draws and Hinkle a flush draw. The 10♠ river, though, was safe for Fink, and he tripled up in a pot worth more than 300,000.
