Hinkle Gambles but Bricks

[user67765]

On a flop of {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

a player in the big blind fired a bet of 5,000 with Blair Hinkle making the call.

The turn fell the {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

and the big blind open-shipped it all in for a total of 29,875 to send Hinkle into the tank.

He eventually decided to gamble for the big pot and made the call with {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

for a pair and straight draw, but he would need to improve against his opponent's {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

.

The river landed the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and Hinkle doubles up his opponent but is still in fine shape with 116,000 chips.
