No-Limit Hold'em

The full board of {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs} was out between Michael Mizrachi and Naoya Kihara. With around 60,000 in the middle, Mizrachi had bet 26,500 and Kihara then raised in position to 108,000.

Mizrachi took his time with his decision before eventually calling for a little under half his remaining chips.

Kihara turned over {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for the flush and Mizrachi mucked.
