Hinkle Doubles Through Gross

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

We walked into the middle of a raising war between Jeff Gross and Blair Hinkle. We saw that Gross opened up the action, and that Hinkle had three bet it from the small blind to 850. It got back around to Gross, and he put in a fourth bet to 1,800. Hinkle went into the tank for a minute or so, before stacking the rest of his chips, and sticking them in. It was 5,600 more to Gross, and he went into the tank for a couple minutes. Eventually, he tossed in the call, but he didn't look too thrilled about it. When the cards were revealed, we saw why.

Gross: {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Hinkle: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

The flop hardly brought a sweat for Gross, coming {3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. He could catch runner runner for a straight, but the {j-Diamonds} on the turn ended it. The river was the {8-Diamonds}, and Hinkle got the full double to 13,000, while Gross fell down to 2,250.
