Wantman Picks Off Badziakouski to Double Up
Level 7
: 300/600, 600 ante
Mikita Badziakouski was in the big blind, facing off against his left-hand neighbor Matthew Wantman. The pot had already grown to around 40,000 by the time the action was picked up on the 
river. Badziakouski stoically studied the board for a while and then slid forward a tower of chips to cover Wantman's remaining 31,750. Wantman needed only about 15 seconds to call.
Badziakouski knew he wasn't getting any piece of the 100,000-pot as he held only 
. Wantman tabled 
and stacked the hefty chunk of chips.
