Yuval Bronshtein, known online as yuvee04, has been eliminated in 23rd place at the 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event. 

He opened from under the gun for 365,000 and the table quickly folded around to Jeremy Ausmus in the small blind who spent some time studying Bronshtein's remaining stack of chips.

Ausmus then reraised all in, and Gaelle Baumann quickly folded from the big blind. Bronshtein took off his sunglasses to look over at Ausmus and his chips. Ausmus had him slightly covered, and so Bronshtein took his time to consider his decision. As the minutes passed, all of the other players walked away from the table.

Bronshtein put his head down for a short while, covering his face as he thought. Finally he looked up and said he was calling.

The rest is history.  Bronshtein, one of the winningest players still standing, walks off with a cool $294,601.

Two German players and two US players were also eliminated prior to Bronshtein.  Daniel Strelitz, Roland Israelashvili, Jan Heitmann and Nicco Maag were each eliminated earlier.
