Mikita Badziakouski Eliminated in 10th Place ($200,000)
Level 17
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Phil Ivey raised the button to 400,000 and Mikita Badziakouski defended out of the big blind.
Badziakouski started with a check on the 3♥9♦5♣ flop, and Ivey bet 400,000. Badziakouski paused momentarily before check-raising to 1,200,000. Ivey jammed to put Badziakouski all in, and Badziakouski reluctantly called for his last 2,025,000.
Mikita Badziakouski: 9♥7♥
Phil Ivey: Q♦Q♣
Badziakouski was behind to Ivey's Ladies, and unless he got some help from the dealer, he would be the final table bubble boy of the $102,000 SHRS NLH Invitational.
The dealer burned a card, then rolled off the 3♠ on the turn, taking away Badziakouski's two pair outs. No nine hit the river as the 4♠ completed the board, and Badziakouski hit the rail in tenth place.
