Robert Mizrachi Eliminates Jeff Lisandro

[user628]

On a flop of K-4-2, all the money went into the middle with Robert Mizrachi holding K-10, and Jeff Lisandro holding K-8. A ten came on the turn, ending Lisandro's tournament.

To rub salt in the wound, the river was an 8, making Lisandro, a lesser two pair. After comparing stacks for a minute, it was clear that Mizrachi had Lisandro covered, and Robert Mizrachi advances to the next round.
