Hands #32-33: Yevgeniy Timoshenko Out in 7th Place Level 13: 8,000-16,000, 2,000 ante Hand #32 - Yevgeniy Timoshenko (pictured above) min-raises from the cutoff to 32,000, Steven Silverman rerasies from the big blind to 90,000, and Timoshenko folds. Silverman takes the pot. Hand #33 - Joseph Cheong min-raises UTG+1 to 32,000, and Yevgeniy Timoshenko moves all in from the hijack for 305,000. James Courtney calls from the button, and Cheong folds. Timoshenko shows 3club3diamond, but he's dominated by Courtney's KheartKspade. The board comes 7club7heart5spade8clubAspade, and the pocket kings hold up for Courtney to win the pot and eliminate Timoshenko in seventh place. Yevgeniy Timoshenko - Out in 7th Place
lot's of great player out there but my choice would be Joseph Cheong for the win. I think he's a pretty good poker player a always perform high when ivoilved in big tourney. However, what was that move from Timoshenko of going all-in with a pocket 3? still had a nice stack to make uch a bad move

I've watched that Timoshenko play many times.... He makes me think of the typical donk you would find in any of the BankrollMob freeerolls on PokerStars...
I think one of his strategies is to annoy you by constantly babbling s**t at the tables....lol... and if you're trapped heads up against the guy,....lord help you....

It is very rare that you make a World Poker Tour televised final table and still walk away empty handed, but that was what happened to three players on the final day of the World Poker Tour World Championship $100,000 Super High Roller event. The high buy-in tournament attracted 21 players and so only the top three would walk away with prize money at Bellagio in Las Vegas, Nevada.
