Soon after him, short-stacked David Hengen found the door in fifth as his jack-nine was no match for McCracken’s ace-nine. Blair HinkleĪfter a series of unfortunate hands, Hinkle shoved with king-queen suited and was called by Jones with a superior ace-jack which held to send out the leading player on the Missouri all-time money list in sixth place. The river bricked the chop-outs Fuller needed and he was sent to the rail while Northcraft began his rise into the chip lead. That is around the time that Northcraft began to catch fire and started winning pot after pot, and eventually scored the seventh-place knockout when he called Shane Fuller’s turn-shove with the bottom straight versus top-pair and a gutterball. Next to exit was Ron Walker who fell victim to Blair Hinkle’s five-six suited versus his own ace-queen suited when the board gave Hinkle trip fives to bust him in eighth.
