Yilmaz Leaves Blokhin Short
Level 11
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Vedat Yilmaz raised to 50,000 under the gun, which Aleksandr Blokhin bumped up to 350,000 in the cutoff. Yilmaz called to the J♦Q♣4♦ flop, which he checked over to Blokhin.
Blokhin continued for 120,000, and Yilmaz raised to 350,000. Blokhin tossed in a call, and the A♣ turn rolled off. Yilmaz sized up to a hefty 700,000. Blokhin spent no less than four time banks before calling.
The 3♥ river then saw Yilmaz shove all in. Blokhin's 250,000 remaining chips were covered, and he folded near the end of his regular countdown.
