Winkler Gaining Ground

Yevgeniy Timoshenko raised to 80,000 from the hijack and was called by Sebastian Winkler from the button. The flop came {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and both players checked. The turn brought the {a-Diamonds} and Timoshenko check-called a bet of 110,000 from Winkler. When the river brought the {3-Spades} Timoshenko again opted to check-call a bet from Winkler, this time for 250,000.

Winkler revealed his {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for top two pair and Timoshenko mucked his hand.
