A Blair-ing Mistake

The cut-off raises to 6,000 and Blair Hinkle calls in the big blind.

The flop is {2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, and Hinkle check-calls a bet of 10,000.

On the {3-Diamonds} river, Hinkle leads for 15,000 and the cut-off raises to 45,500. Hinkle tanks before moving all-in for about 100,000 more or so.

The cut-off looks pained, but makes the call with {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. Hinkle had looked nervous after the call but sees his {K-Spades}{10-Hearts} is ahead. The river is the {K-Diamonds} for two pair and the bracelet winner from last year is over the 300,000 mark.
