Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Action folded to Kevin Paque who limped in from the small blind with {a-Spades}{6-Clubs} and faced a raise to 325,000 from Mikita Badziakouski in the big blind with {q-Spades}{3-Hearts}, which was called.

On the flop of {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} Paque check-called a bet of 175,000 from Badziakouski. The {4-Spades} rolled off on the turn and Paque checked again to Badziakouski who checked back with his straight.

The {10-Diamonds} completed the board and Paque checked for a third time. Badziakouski took a moment before cutting out a sizable bet of 800,000. Paque put some thought in but eventually folded and another pot was shipped to the chip leader.

Timothy Adams
Timothy Adams

Mikita Badziakouski raised to 200,000 from the cutoff with {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} before Timothy Adams, holding {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, reraised to 1,215,000 in the small blind, leaving just one 5,000 chip behind. Badziakouski called.

The flop came {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and they got Adams' last chip in the middle. Adams needed to go runner-runner to beat Badziaouski's flopped pair of queens but was already drawing dead when the {7-Spades} fell on the turn.

The meaningless {k-Clubs} came on the river and Adams was eliminated in fifth place.
