Badziakouski Doesn't Believe Kanit

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Mustapha Kanit and Mikita Badziakouski met in two consecutive hands and the latter ended up the net winner after taking down a big pot in the second hand.

Hand 1

Badziakouski's open raise from under the gun was three-bet by Kanit on the button and the Belarusian called to see a flop of {K-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Badziakouski checked and let go after Kanit bet 11,500.

Hand 2

Kanit raised to 4,500 in the cutoff and Badziakouski defended the big blind, then check-called a bet of 4,500 on the {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop. On the {5-Clubs} turn, Badziakouski checked and called a second bet worth 13,000 before checking again the {A-Diamonds} river. Kanit fired a third barrel for 27,000 and Badziakouski let the clock run down to five seconds before electing to call.

Kanit turned over {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for a busted straight and flush draw, and Badziakouski claimed the pot with the {K-Spades}{9-Clubs}.
