Teun Mulder
Teun Mulder

Teun Mulder opened the action from under the gun to 200,000 with {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and Erik Seidel decided on a three-bet to 400,000 next to act with {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. It folded back to Mulder who put in his last 410,000 total and Seidel called.

It was an action flop of {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, giving Mulder a flopped set but Seidel a flush and straight draw. The {7-Hearts} hit the turn to put Seidel well in the lead and when the {4-Diamonds} completed the board it was the end of the road for Mulder as he was eliminated in sixth place.

Adams Picks Up Kings, Gets Little Action

Level 19 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Mikita Badziakouski raised to 120,000 from the cutoff with {4-Spades}{4-Clubs} before Timothy Adams reraised in the small blind to 390,000 with {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

Badziakouski called and put on his sunglasses as the board came {j-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{a-Clubs}. Adams used a time bank before deciding to check and Badziakouski checked behind.

The turn came the {2-Diamonds} and Adams, covering his face with his FC Barcelona jacket, checked again. Badziakouski also checked as the river came the {5-Diamonds}.

Both players quickly checked it down and Adams took the pot with his pair of kings.

Badziakouski Goes For It On The River

Level 20 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Action folded to Mikita Badziakouski in the small blind with {4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} who limped in and Erik Seidel with {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} checked from the big blind.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Seidel called a bet of 80,000 from Badziakouski. On the {6-Hearts} turn both players checked their options.

The {4-Spades} completed the board and Badziakouski started with a check. Seidel took a moment before betting 200,000, and without much thought, Badziakouski elected on a check-raise to 1,200,000. Seidel took roughly 20 seconds before folding and the bluff of Badziakouski took down the pot.

Kevin Paque raised to 160,000 from under the gun with {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and was called by Mikita Badziakouski in the cutoff with {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and big blind Ben Heath with {k-Spades}{9-Spades}.

The flop came {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, giving Paque a pair of fours and Badziakouski an open-ended straight draw and nut flush draw. Action checked to Badziakouski who bet 150,000, and only Paque called.

The turn came the {q-Diamonds} and Paque checked again, then called when Badziakouski bet another 450,000.

Paque checked a third time when the {8-Spades} fell on the river, completing Badziakouski's straight. The Belarussian then fired out 1,500,000.

Paque lowered his sunglasses and shot a glance over at Badziakouski as he went into the tank, using three time banks before deciding to fold as Badziakouski extended his chip lead.

Mikita Badziakouski opened from under the gun with {k-Spades}{j-Hearts} to 160,000 and it folded around to Ben Heath in the small blind with {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Heath took his time before deciding to move all in for 720,000 total and after some agonizing thought, Badziakouski made the call.

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{6-Hearts}, putting Badziakouski in the lead with a pair of jacks until the turn came the {9-Diamonds} giving Heath trip-nines and rocketed his chances of a double up. The {5-Clubs} completed the runout and Heath found a full double up off the chip leader.
