Mikita Badziakouski Busted on the Bubble in 3rd Place
Mikita Badziakouski’s tournament is at an end after a dramatic hand saw him just miss the money.
Pre-flop, Ben Tollerene made it 60,000 with [Kh2h] and Badziakouski made the call with [8h6h].
The flop of [Ks5h9d] saw Tollerene c-bet 50,000 and Badziakouski called, and with 265,000 in the pot, On the turn of [4h], Ben Tollerene led for another 175,000. On a day where it has been commonplace for players to have the same suit with their cards, both chasing the flush, Badziakouski moved all-in with [8h6h] and he was quickly called.
“Oh, I’m dead!” he gasped in. Not quite, but four outs wasn’t hopeful for him.
Only a seven would save the Belarussian, but the river [9x] saw Tollerene move into a decisive lead for heads-up and burst the bubble, leaving the unfortunate Belarussian to miss out on the money.
