Badziakouski Takes the Lead Just Before Break

A big hand erupted on the final hand before the first break between Mikita Badziakouski and Ole Schemion.

Badziakouski opened for 2,300 from the button before he called a big three-bet to 15,000 by Ole Schemion from the big blind.

Schemion fired out for 22,563 on the flop and got a call. Schemion then check-called a bet of 17,793 on the turn before he checked the river. Badziakouski used a bit of his clock before he jammed for 46,269. Schemion folded and Badziakouski had the chip lead going into the break.
