Blair Hinkle Gains a Few
Aug 05, '13
Yesterday 2012 WSOP Main Event October Niner Rob Salaburu called Blair Hinkle a “Short Stack Ninja” and that nickname appears to be holding up. After being crippled in a hand with Donald Thurman and down to about 100,000 Hinkle has taken back a few of the chips he lost.
With the board reading J92 Hinkle moved all in for 325,000 with AK and Bill Donnelly called with 53. The board completed 9J and Hinkle doubled up.
“Anyone want to take some side action on him coming back and winning this thing?” Matt Ludlow asked the table as Hinkle stacked up his chips.
On the very next hand Hinkle moved all in again but found no callers to win the blinds and antes.
