Babincev Doubles on Bubble
Level 17
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Action was on the flop on a board of 9♦8♥9♥ and Sergej Babincev checked. Yen Han Chen bet 41,000 from the button and Babincev called. Both players checked it through on the J♣ turn.
On the 2♦ river, Babincev bet 100,000, then Chen moved all in. Babincev made the call for a touch over 1,000,000. Chen showed K♠K♥ for two pair, kings and nines. Babincev had him beat, however, flipping over J♠J♥ for a full house to win the pot and double his stack.
