Mikita Trending Upwards
After the bubble sweat not too long ago, Mikita Badziakouski has been moving steadily in the right direction. Just now, he picked up two decent-sized pots to grow his stack to 400,000.
Hand 1
Badziakouski raised to 12,000 under the gun and [Removed:17] called. At that moment, Davidi Kitai was all in for his tournament life (as written below), which meant this hand would be played out first before that one went to showdown. Ramin Hajiyev also called from the blinds.
On an 
flop, Badziakouski bet 12,000 and both opponents stuck around. The 
turn and 
river got checked down. Badziakouski showed 
and won the hand.
Hand 2
Yan raised to 14,000 from the cutoff, Ole Schemion called on the button, and Hajiyev and Badziakouski defended their blinds. It was checked to Schemion on a 
flop, who bet 30,000. Badziakouszi check-called that bet, and check-called 58,000 from Schemion on the 
turn.
The river was the 
and both players checked. Badziakouski tabled 
for two pair and Schemion mucked.
