Badziakouski Off to a Good Start

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

Mikita Badziakouski opened with a raise to 6,000 and action folded around to Ben Tollerene who put in a three-bet to 23,000 in position. Action was back on Badziakouski who called.

The flop came down {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{5-Spades} and Badziakouski checked to Tollerene who continued but sized down with a bet of 10,000. Badziakouski called.

The two players checked on the {4-Spades} turn and the {J-Clubs} came on the river. Badziakouski led out, betting 26,000. Tollerene tanked until the end of his 30 seconds then decided to fold.

With that pot, and after collecting a bit before, Badziakouski moved to over 600,000 chips.
