A large pot was brewing between Robert Hankins from the hijack and the player in the cutoff.
With the board reading Q?8?6?A?, Hankins led into the cutoff who called.
With over 100,000 in the middle, the two went heads-up to a 7? river. Hankins led all-in for 69,000 which sent the cutoff into the tank. After around a minute, he put in the call and the hands were tabled.
Robert Hankins: 9?5? 
Cutoff: 6?6?
The cutoff had slow-played a flopped set while Hankins went runner-runner to make a flush and drag a massive pot.
