Timoshenko Takes a Hit, Higgs Busts a Second Time

Level 6 : 400/800, 0 ante

We caught the action on the flop on a board reading {j-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Spades} just as Yevgeniy Timoshenko led out for a pot-sized bet of 3,500. Timoshenko's opponent in the hand, sitting on the button, reraise the pot, leaving himself just 2,000 or so behind.

This sent the Ukranian player deep into the think tank and he nearly timed out before committing the last of his opponent's chip to the pot with a three-bet.

Timoshenko had {j-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for the flopped full house, which was leading his opponent's {j-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{k-Clubs}. The {7-Diamonds} turn did not change anything but the {k-Hearts} river gave the all-in player a higher full house and he scooped the pot while Timoshenko dropped to around 19,000 after that spot of misfortune.

We saw Sam Higgs get up from another table while this hand was taking place, and he was headed for the exit muttering to himself so it looks like the Australian player could not get anything going and he has now busted for a second and final time.
