Khorchidian Puts Yilmaz in the Blender

Level 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Vedat Yilmaz opened to 125,000 from the cutoff and Nichan Khorchidian three-bet to 425,000 from the small blind. Yilmaz made the call.

The flop came A83 and Khorchidian fired a 275,000 continuation bet. Yilmaz raised to 850,000 and Khorchidian moved all in, covering Yilmaz who had roughly 1,600,000 behind. Yilmaz went deep into the tank.

After using three time extensions to weigh his options Yilmaz ultimately decided to fold and Khorchidian took down a chunky pot without having to go to showdown.
