Yielding to Yevgeniy

A player in the cutoff opened with a raise to 1,800, and Yevgeniy Timoshenko, winner of the $25,000 WPT World Championship in April of this year, slowly pushed out his entire stack of about 11,000. The table folded back around to the cutoff, who after some thought gave it up.

Timoshenko is looking for his first WSOP bracelet, his closest previous finish being third in a WSOPE event last fall. He's at about 15,000 right now.
