Yifrach Calls Down Mugar
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
In the last hand before the break, Peter Mugar opened to 16,000 from under the gun and was called by Gal Yifrach in the cutoff and Katherine Porrello in the big blind. The flop came A♦7♥7♣ and the action checked around to the 5♥ on the turn.
Mugar took a stab at the pot with a bet of 40,000 and was only called by Yifrach. The river was the A♣ and Mugar counted out another bet of 45,000. Yifrach quickly flicked in a couple of chips to call and Mugar tabled J♠9♠ for air. Yifrach turned over his J♣J♦ for the winner and collected the pot.
