Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

On the board of {K-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, action checked to Sam Iola. He fired 3,500 into the pot and Brent Hanks was back up after checking. He raised to 8,100 and then action fell on Yevgeniy Timoshenko. He reraised to 17,000 and Iola folded. Hanks made the call.

The river completed the board with the {2-Clubs} and Hanks thought before checking. Timoshenko thought for a long time before finally moving all in. He had Hanks covered for his last 35,350 and Hanks went into the tank. He tanked for several minutes before finally giving it up. Timoshenko moved to over 80,000 in chips with this pot.
