Mizrachi Big Blindsided

Event 45: $50,000 Poker Players Championship winner Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi watched the player to his left limp from the button, then he raised to 5,400 from the small blind. That's when the big blind woke up with an all-in shove for 32,800, forcing the button to skedaddle. Mizrachi thought a bit, then called.

Mizrachi turned over {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}, but needed help versus his opponent's {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}. The board ran out {3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, and Mizrachi had lost nearly half his stack.
