Heger Doubles Through Hinkle

Adam Heger
Adam Heger

We caught up just as Adam Heger had pushed all in for 86,000, got several folds, and action was on Blair Hinkle, who called to put Heger at risk.

Heger: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Hinkle: {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Heger was a solid favorite going to the flop, and the {8-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} board left him with a set of eight for the double up and then some.

Heger is over 200,000 while Blair has slipped back down to 350,000.
