Timoshenko Extracts Some Value

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

On a flop reading {8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, the player in the small and Yevgeniy Timoshenko in the big checked to the player on the button, who bet 150. The small folded, but Timoshenko called.

Both players checked the {5-Spades} turn, however, it would be Timoshenko who led out for 250 on the {6-Clubs} river. His opponent called and Timoshenko revealed {Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of queens. His opponent mucked and Timoshenko dragged the pot.

Timoshenko is up to 5,200.
