It folds to Aleksey Badulin in the small blind and he opts to limp with Diamond KClub K in the hole. Vahe Martirosyan looks down to see Heart 4Heart 2 and goes all in for 2,800,000. He has Badulin covered but with the second-best starting hand in poker, Badulin is going nowhere and is a huge favorite with his tournament life at risk.
