|
Kirill Telezhkin has won the Betfair Poker Live! Yalta main event at Hotel Yalta Inturist, Ukraine just three months after taking down the Russian Poker Series Kiev main event.
Telezhkin outlasted 259 opponents in the $820 buy in no-limit hold’em event in Crimea, winning $45,000 for his efforts.
The “Crazy Racoon” faced Denis “Podox” Pestretsov heads up with a commanding chip lead and made it pay calling his opponenet’s 7-7 all in with K-J and flopping an open-ended straight draw before hitting his 9 on the river.
