Mikita Badziakouski Bubbles EPT12 Malta €25K High Roller
Mikita Badziakouski has been clinging to a short stack, and after Nick Petrangelo's double, the pressure was on the Belarusian.
After Mike McDonald, who has been very active on the bubble, opened for 90,000 from the cutoff, Badziakouski moved all in for 320,000 from the button. Sylvain Loosli folded from the small blind, and then Christopher Frank four-bet all in over the top for 1.1 million. McDonald folded and it was off to the race.
Badziakouski: 
Frank: 
Badziakouski was looking to hold, which he did on the 
flop. The 
turn gave Frank a wheel draw to go with his overs, and much to the dismay of Badziakouski, it came in when the 
spiked on the river.
With that, Badziakouski left empty handed and guaranteed the remaining 11 players — three of which didn't even play on Day 1 as they late registered before the start of play today — a minimum €45,325 payday.
