Timoshenko Calls Cody Down, Takes Biggest Pot of Match

Level 8 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Timoshenko continued his strategy of raising on his button, this time making it 80,000 to go. Cody continued his own strategy of three-betting Timoshenko's button raises, popping it to 180,000. Timoshenko finally decided to look Cody up and made the call.

Flop: {9-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}

Cody splashed 195,000 chips into the middle and Timoshenko flat called, bringing a turn card of {8-Hearts}.

The 22-year old British sensation did not relent and fired 245,000 at his opponent, eliciting a round of song from the crowd. Timoshenko decided to come along and made the call.

River: {J-Diamonds}

The pot contained 1,240,000 at this point and Cody slowed down, tapping the table for a check. Timoshenko did the same and Cody showed down the {5-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for seven-high. Timoshenko's {9-Spades}{7-Spades} and two pair were good and he dragged the largest pot of the match his way.

The Brits remained undeterred, however, and continued to hoot and holler in support of their countryman.
