Blair Hinkle has taken control of WPT Seminole Hard Rock.
While Hinkle (pictured, right) entered Saturday's play as a contender, he did more than just contend, the WSOP bracelet holder took over mid-way through today's play. Hinkle will go into Sunday's play with 1.7M in chips, a 400k chip lead over Day 3 chip leader Taylor Von Kriegenbergh - who continued his solid play during Day 4 play.
Abbey Daniels sits 4th in chips and she also had a very good day, eliminating Day 2 chip leader Todd Terry alogn the way.
Sadly, Mike Sexton wasn't able to make it to another WPT final table - still, a deep run and another impressive performance by the Hall of Famer.
Here is a run-down of the final two tables:
Seat 1: Abbey Daniels – 1,038,000 (87 BBs)
Seat 2: Nick Avena – 428,000 (36 BBs)
