Badziakouski Races Back for Chop
Mikita Badziakouski made it back to his table in the nick of time to play his button, to chuckles from his tablemates.
“I nearly missed that,” Badziakouski exclaimed breathlessly.
“Yeah, we noticed,” quipped back Petrangelo as he led out for 20,000.
Action folded around to Badziakouski who pumped it up to 55,000 and Petrangelo called quickly to take play heads-up to the 
flop.
Petrangelo checked it over to Badziakouski who took most of his allotted time before deciding to c-bet 40,000, which Petrangelo swiftly called.
The 
turn brought a lull in the action as both players checked and the 
landed on the river.
Petrangelo checked it over to Badziakouski for the third time and the Belarusian player thought for nearly the full 30-seconds before decided to bet 130,000 and was called instantly by Petrangelo.
Badziakouski turned over 
and Petrangelo had 
for a rather anti-climatic chop.
“Bah!’ bantered Petrangelo good-naturedly, “You race back to three-bet me from the button and can only chop…”
Both players share a chuckle as the pot is divvied up.
