Hinkle Picks the Wrong Time to Shove
Level 24
: 7,000/14,000, 2,000 ante
Grant Hinkle opened for 30,000 from early position only to have Sterling
Savill, who was seated to his immediate left, three-bet to 57,000. Action folded back around to Hinkle and he made the call before checking the 
flop. Savill continued for 61,000 and Hinkle thought for a bit before announcing that he was all in. Savill, who had 259,000, couldn't call fast enough.
Savill: 
Hinkle: 
Savill was ahead with two pair, but Hinkle was drawing to a double-gutted straight draw. The 
turn meant another on the river would also give Hinkle the win, but it wasn't in the cards as the harmless 
peeled off.
