Weis Wins Before Break

The last hand before the break saw Oliver Weis juice it up to 65,000 from the button and Mikita Badziakouski chooses to defend from the small blind.

Badziakouski checked the flop over to Weis, who c-bet 55,000 and was called keeping both players in action and the hit the turn.

This brought a second check from Badziakouski, who had put on his sunglasses and was staring Weis down. This did not phase the German player, however, and he fired a second barrel of 145,000, which Badziakouski again called.

The river brought a third and final check from Badziakouski and a visit to the think tank from Weis, who led out for a massive 350,000 third barrel with just seconds to spare on the shot clock.

It was Badziakouski’s turn to tank and he burned through a time bank chips (he has 2 remaining) but the Belarusian player eventually made the call, but could only muck when Weis turned over .
