Level 23
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Alex Kulev min-raised to 400,000 from the button with A♦10♦ and Mikita Badziakouski moved all in for 3,075,000. Kulev snap-called and players flipped their cards, with Badziakouski at risk.
Mikita Badziakouski: A♥J♣
Alex Kulev: A♦10♦
"You couldn't have the ace-deuce off?" said Kulev.
The flop came 5♠3♣A♠ to give both players a pair of aces. The turn was the 3♠.
It looked like Badziakouski was set for the double up, until the river came the 10♠ to give Kulev two pair with his aces and tens.
The players stood up and respectfully shook hands.
Badziakouski was eliminated in second place, which after the deal meant that he will walk away with €1,009,853.
