Hinkle Puts a Beat On England

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Kyna England

Keith Hinkle opened to 2,400 from middle position and MSPT Season 12 Player of the Year Kyna England three-bet to 7,700 from late position. Action folded back around to Hinkle, who went into the tank. "Why seventy-seven?" he queried, pondering his options. Eventually with a "Well I need chips", Hinkle moved the remainder of his stack into the middle to put himself at risk.

Keith Hinkle: {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Kyna England: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Hinkle was well behind but did have an overcard. The {2-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop brought little help though the {4-Clubs} turn did give Hinkle a gutshot. "I want a three just for the hell of it", said Hinkle prior to the river. That river was in fact the {3-Spades}, giving Hinkle a wheel to survive and in doing so putting a large dent in a bemused England's stack.
