Eric "basebaldy" Baldwin limped on the button and Robert MIzrachi completed from the small blind. Chase Steely checked in the big blind.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} and action checked to Baldwin. He fired 48,000 and Mizrachi was the only caller.

The turn added the {7-Hearts} to the board and both players checked. The river was the {6-Clubs} and Mizrachi bet 50,000. Baldwin raised to 165,000 and Mizrachi went into the tank. Eventually, he made the call, and it proved to be the right decision. Mizrachi tabled {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks to beat Baldwin's {4-Spades} {3-Spades}.

Mizrachi is now back up to 1.88 million with Baldwin slipping further to 1.99 million.
