Hawkins Hits the Rail
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Jamin Stokes opened to 1,000 from middle position and was called by Maurice Hawkins from the hijack.
Stokes bet 5,000 on the 6♦5♦2♥ flop, which was enough to put Hawkins all in, as he had 3,500 behind. Hawkins called for his tournament life.
Maurice Hawkins: 9♣7♥
Jamin Stokes: J♦10♣
Stokes hadn't connected with the flop but his jack-high meant he was ahead of Hawkins. The A♦J♥ runout was of no aid to Hawkins and Stokes eliminated the WSOP Circuit Ring record holder.
