Blair Hinkle was all in from the small blind for about 85,000 with 6d6c, but he needed to improve to stay alive against the KsKh of Sean Legendre in the big blind.

The board came Kc5d2s2hJs, and Legendre flopped a set of kings and turned a full house to win the pot and eliminate Hinkle from Day 1A.
