Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mikita Badziakouski
Mikita Badziakouski

Teun Mulder raised to 40,000 from middle position and was called by David Peters in the small blind. Mikita Badziakouski in the big blind then shoved for his last 470,000 and Mulder folded. Peters asked for a count before sticking in the chips.

Mikita Badziakouski: {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}
David Peters: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

It was a coin flip situation, but any suspense was taken completely out of the hand when the {10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} flop gave Peters two pair but Badziakouski quad deuces.

The board ran out {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and Badziakouski doubled up.

Mulder Takes Some From Badziakouski

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Mikita Badziakouski had just won another massive pot off Mikalai Vaskaboinikau when he bet 120,000 on the {2-Spades}{q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{a-Diamonds} turn and Vaskaboinikau called. Both players then checked down the {a-Spades} river as Badziakouski turned over {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for trip aces.

He would then give some of those chips back to Teun Mulder the next hand.

Mulder raised to 40,000 and Badziakouski made it 105,000 from the button. Mulder stuck around as the flop came {q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{a-Hearts}.

Mulder checked to Badziakouski who bet 40,000, and Mulder called. The turn came the {9-Diamonds} and Badziakouski bet another 130,000. Mulder again called.

The river was the {8-Clubs} and both players checked. Mulder showed {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a pair of aces and Badziakouski mucked.

Dvoress Hits Money Card

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

In a limped pot between the blinds of Lucas Greenwood and Daniel Dvoress on a flop of {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, both players checked their options.

The {7-Diamonds} hit the turn and Greenwood check-called a bet of 40,000 from Dvoress. The {9-Diamonds} completed the board and Greenwood checked again. Dvoress slid out a bet of 70,000, and with little consideration, Greenwood made the call. Dvoress rolled over {6-Spades}{3-Clubs} for the rivered straight and Greenwood shook his head as he mucked his hand, sending the pot to Dvoress.

Erik Seidel bet 50,000 in the cutoff on a flop of {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts} and was called by both David Peters and Mikita Badziakouski in the blinds.

The turn came the {5-Hearts} and Peters and Badziakouski again checked to Seidel, who fired out 240,000. Both opponents called once more as the river came the {7-Spades}.

Paque Finds Tens Again; Vogelsang Hits The Rail

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

A few hands earlier Kevin Paque busted Artur Martirosian with tens against threes and he was at it again when he raised to 40,000 from the hijack and Christoph Vogelsang moved all in from the button for 311,000, which Paque quickly called.

Christoph Vogelsang: {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Kevin Paque: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The same scenario that just took place happened again. The board ran out {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and the tens for Paque held once more to send Vogelsang to the exit.

Watson Scores Massive Double Up To Gain Chip Lead

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Michael Watson
Michael Watson

As most of the players had already left for dinner break, Mike Watson and Ben Heath were still involved in a big hand. The pot was roughly 600,000 on a board showing {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

Heath moved all in, covering the 650,000 stack of Watson. Without much thought, Watson flicked in a chip for his tournament life and Heath rolled over {10-Spades}{9-Hearts} for trips, but was no good when Watson revealed {q-Hearts}{9-Spades} for a better kicker. Watson scooped in the massive pot to put him over the two million mark and new chip leader.
