Hinde Gets an Early Stack

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante
Michael Hinde
Michael Hinde

Michael Hinde was just seen with a stack of more than double the 30,000 starting size and confirmed he had just more than doubled, sending a player to the rail in the process.

According to Hinde, he raised to 400 under the gun and received four calls. The flop came {k-}{10-}{7-} and Hinde made a continuation-bet of 1,400. A player behind him raised to 3,000 and got one call before action made its way back to Hinde, who went all in.

The player who raised him called all in, and the third player in the hand folded.

Michael Hinde: {7-}{7-}
Opponent: {k-}{10-}

Hinde had gotten bottom set in versus top two pair and two bricks rolled off to complete the runout and earn him the early pot. He now finds himself with a stack of over 68,000.

Steven Berkowitz also is off to a good start on the day, chipping up to over 52,000 on the same table after making a straight flush with {a-}{j-Diamonds} after the board came {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and paired on the river.
