Another Boost for Yilmaz

Eric Yilmaz is doing some good work today, and we just picked up his action once again as he tangled in a three-way pot. Yilmaz was the preflop raiser, and he continued out with a bet on the {5-Spades} {2-Clubs} {9-Spades} flop. A fellow big stack in Seat 1 raised to 26,600, and that folded the third player from the button. Yilmaz called, though.

The turn came the {4-Clubs}, and Yilmaz knocked the table. Seat 1 took his cue to bet 20,600 now, but Yilmaz check-raised all in with his big stack. The gentleman in Seat 1 had about 120,000 chips left, and he eventually decided to wave the white flag and surrender his cards into the muck.

Yilmaz showed his airball {6-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}, and sometimes all you need is a double-gutshot draw to win the pot. That's another one to Yilmaz's corner, and this one moves him up across another milestone to ~330,000.
