Level 27
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Brendon Waite opened this pot to 65,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a reraise of 177,000, nearly half his stack, from Blair Hinkle in the small blind. Waite decided to make the call and when the 
flop came, Blair went all in and Waite called.
Blair: 
Waite: 
Waite needed to catch any heart, jack, or queen. When the 
peeled on the turn, Waite started to stand up but quickly sat back down as the 
on the river gave him a pair.
