Hand #199 - Michael Mizrachi

Michael Mizrachi limps the button and Vladimir Schmelev raises it up an additional 300,000. Mizrachi makes the call.

We see a flop of {2-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Schmelev leads out for 400,000. Mizrachi makes the call. The turn card is a dangerous looking {3-Clubs} and both players quickly check. The river is the {10-Spades}. Schmelev checks and then folds when Mizrachi bets 600,000.

Hand #197 - Vladimir Schmelev

Michael Mizrachi raises the button to 250,000 and Vladimir Schmelev puts in the three-bet from the big blind to a total of 825,000. Mizrachi reaches for chips as his rail get up on their feet in anticipation of a big confrontation. It's not to be, as Mizrachi lets his hand go.

Hand #195 - Vladimir Schmelev

In a limped pot, Vladimir Schmelev fires out 200,000 on a {K-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop, before Michael Mizrachi raises to 450,000. Schmelev snap-calls.

The turn is the {A-Hearts}. Schmelev checks to Mizrachi who fires 390,000. Schmelev instantly raises to 1.5 million. He's playing super fast now. Mizrachi deliberates and tries to slow the pace, before releasing his hand.

Hand #193 - Michael Mizrachi

Michael Mizrachi raises the button to 225,000 before Vladimir Schmelev re-raises an additional 500,000 from the big blind. Mizrachi is taking his time with each decision now, after perhaps feeling a little rushed by the fast play of his opponent prior the break.

After a minute of thought he makes the call and we see a flop of {8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. Schmelev bets out 500,000. Mizrachi makes the call. The turn is the {10-Clubs} and Schmelev checks to Mizrachi who fires 620,000. Schmelev quickly slides calling chips into the middle.

The river brings the {9-Clubs} and Schmelev checks to Mizrachi who bets 1 million to force a quick fold from his opponent.

Hand #192 - Michael Mizrachi, Vladimir Schmelev

Schmelev limps in on the button and Mizrachi checks his option. The flop comes down {A-Spades}{7-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and both players check. The turn is the {Q-Diamonds} and they check it again. The {A-Hearts} lands on the river. Check-check a third time.

Mizrachi shows nine-deuce, Schmelev shows nine-five and they split the pot.
