Babekov raised it up to 106,000 which saw the original raiser fold but the next player moved all in. The player on the button, who would later say that he was priced in, called. Babekov had them both covered and called.

It took five bullets for 888 Ambassador Chris Moorman to Make Day 2 of Colossus. He just busted but discusses his profit and his new book.
Franklin Connell open-shoved for 168,000 and got a call from Mark Babekov. A third player moved all in over the top for a total of just over 180,000 and the math made for a call from Babekov.
Connell with 
faced off against the 
of Babekov and the other player’s .
The flop was 
.
A set of nines for Connell shot him into the lead.
The turn card was the which secured Connell a full house.
The river, however, was the to give Babekov boat over boat to secure an unlikely double elimination and see another big pot shipped his way as he closes in on 2 million in chips.
Is there no stopping this man?
