Arkadiy Pervyy Bakhtin

Arkadiy Pervyy Bakhtin had a big stack after Flight C but was flying under the radar on Day 2 until after the second break. We missed the hand but found Rick Kalgstein standing and shaking his head while Bakhtin was stacking up big.

Turns out that Bakhtin’s 8x6x cracked Kalgstein’s aces and the table was still talking about it.

The end result was Kalgstein going out in 60th place while Bakhtin pushed his count all the way up to 1,785,000.
