Hand #127 - James Akenhead

James Akenhead has the button in seat 9 and he limps in. Grant Hinkle checks his option and they see the {Q-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades} flop. Hinkle checks and Akenhead fires out a bet of 175,000. Hinkle calls and the {7-Clubs} peels off on the turn. Hinkle checks again and Akenhead slides out 375,000. Hinkle makes the call. The chips are pulled in and the {J-Spades} is the river. Hinkle checks yet again and Akenhead puts a stack of 800,000 in the center. Hinkle calls and Akenhead shows {J-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} for three of a kind. Hinkle flashes {Q-?} {8-?} as he mucked. James Akenhead picks up a big pot.
