Badziakousi Spikes the River For a Massive Double Off Lynskey
Mikita Badziakouski raised to 40,000 under the gun and Alex Lynskey called in the cutoff, as did big blind Philip Sternheimer.
Action checked to Lynskey on the Q♦9♦7♣ flop and he bet 50,000. Only Badziakouski called.
Lynskey bet another 250,000 on the 10♣ turn, but this time Badziakouski moved all in for 825,000. Lynskey called with 9♠9♥ for a set, while Badziakouski showed Q♣J♣ for top pair to go with flush and straight draws.
The K♠ fell on the river to give Badziakouski a straight as he took down the pot worth nearly 2,000,000 to move into contention for the tournament chip lead.
