Tournament Lobby

Cavalieri was the only South American at the table and, unfortunately, was also the first to be eliminated. Although he wasn’t the player with the fewest chips, he quickly went all-in with A K against Neves’ A K. The board showed 7 5 10 3 K, and this tremendous bad beat sent the Brazilian home prematurely. Shortly after, Badziakouski eliminated Navarro with A K against A J, quickly reducing the field to 7 players.

The next player to be eliminated was Adrian Mateos, who had to push for less than 10 big blinds with A Q and found himself up against Petersen’s A K. The board 5 2 2 3 9 did not help Mateos, and he was eliminated in 7th place.

Then we had about 30 minutes with very few all-in confrontations. Finally, Chris Puetz ended up going all-in in a blind battle against Kuznetsov, which favored the Russian and eliminated the German from the competition.

The Moment Chris Puetz Was Eliminated From The Tournament

A few minutes later, it was Eichenseher’s turn to leave the tournament, after having a short stack and going all-in with A 8 against Badziakouski’s A Q. The board did not help the Dane, who was thus eliminated in 5th place.

We had to wait about half an hour again for the next elimination. Petersen seemed to have everything under control with his A J on a A 6 7 5 board against Neves’ Q 5. However, the Q on the river changed everything, and the Austrian had to leave the tournament.

Almost 40 minutes later, Badziakouski eliminated Neves to go heads-up against Kuznetsov. The heads-up lasted approximately 20 minutes. Finally, Kuznetsov went all-in with K J and Badziakouski called with A 10. The board showed 9 3 K 10 A, and thus, Mikita Badziakouski was crowned champion of the GGMillion$ Week Main Event, taking home a prize of US$1,755,815.
