Hinkle Wins a Flip

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Blair Hinkle was all in for his last 22,000 from the hijack and was up against an opponent on the button.

Button: {a-}{k-}
Blair Hinkle: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Hinkle's opponent failed to connect with the {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} board as the bracelet winner's pocket eights stayed in front. The stacks were counted down and Hinkle barely had his opponent covered.

"Good luck. I would rather give it to you," the eliminated player said as he and Hinkle shook hands.
