Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

With 8,800 chips in the pot and the board reading {Q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}, Eric Hicks checked from the big blind and Yevgeniy Timoshenko bet the pot from under the gun. Hicks check-raised all in, putting Timoshenko to a decision for his stack.

"Gotta put the pressure on, my friend. I've got a plane to catch," said Hicks as he moved his chips forward.

"I've got a plane to catch too," Timoshenko replied with a smile. "Well, this was my plan."

Timoshenko called to put himself at risk and the two players tabled their hands.

Eric Hicks: {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Yevgeniy Timoshenko: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

Timoshenko had the best of it with his aces but Hicks had numerous ways to catch up. The {7-Clubs} on the turn gave Hicks a lock on the pot with a flush and he took the chips to eliminate Timoshenko after the {3-Spades} fell on the river.
