Set Mine Produces Gold for Brinkmann

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 2,000 ante

Fourway to a flop of {Q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} (Eugene Yanayt having raised under the gun to 48,000, bringing in button Brinkmann and both blinds), action checked to the raiser. He bet 85,000, and only Brinkmann made the call.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds}. Decisions started to slow, as the pot now grew with a check-call from Yanayt (Brinkmann betting 125,000). This pot was now sizeable, the rail was beginning to speculate on the holdings of these two stack titans, and a further five minutes was needed to get past the {9-Clubs} river.

Yanayt checked the river, and after a nearly equal pause Brinkmann bet 175,000. Yanayt made the call but mucked seeing Brinkmann's {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.
