Savitsky Triples Up Thanks to Hinkle
Jared Anderson opened for 250,000 in middle position and received a three-bet from the button Blair Hinkle to 500,000. Thomas Savitsky, sitting in small blind with around 255,000 behind, shoved all-in. When action went back to Anderson, he thought for a few seconds before calling Hinkle's raise creating a side pot of about 470,000.
The dealer dealt a board of 4♥8♣Q♣K♥ which was knuckled by both Anderson and Hinkle. But on the river K♠, Hinkle decided to fire 900,000 after action was passed to him. Anderson folded conceding the side pot to the button player.
Thomas Savitsky: A♦6♥
Blair Hinkle: 10♥9♦
With no one hitting the board, Savitsky, surprised, tripled up with ace-high. Asking if he won the pot, Anderson said pointing at Hinkle, "You should thank him."
