Here Comes Hastings

Brian "Stinger 88" Hastings has just found his second double today, and that's bad news for the rest of the field.
It happened when Hastings shoved in from early position with 
, sticking his last 292,000 into the middle on an open-shove. All the way around in the big blind, Jim Harnden looked down at 
and made the call, and he was behind but drawing live for the knockout.
The 
flop was no fun at all for Stinger, but it was not to worry. Forget about the blank 
on the turn, because the 
river was the money card for Hastings. It made him Broadway and allowed him to stick around with twice as many chips, and he's suddenly up to 610,000 and one big pot away from clawing back to the chip average.
