Quads for Timoshenko

Yevgeniy Timoshenko raised in early position to 650 and a middle position player made the call. On the {J-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop, Timoshenko led out and received a call. Both players checked when the {7-Hearts} landed on the turn and the river came the {9-Diamonds}. Timoshenko thought for some time before slowly placing 2,750 out. His opponent snap-called but was shown the bad news as Timoshenko turned over {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for quad sevens and the nuts. The player mucked his hand as Timoshenko’s stack grew.
