Jerry Wong opened to 60,000 from the cutoff and George Clyde-Smith called from the small blind. Yann Dion three-bet to 120,000 and Wong called. Clyde-Smith folded and the flop brought a trio of fours- {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. Dion check-called 175,000 and the {9-Diamonds} turned. Dion checked again and Wong fired 300,000. Another call took us to the river.

The dealer made the {Q-Diamonds} fall on the river and Dion checked. Wong pushed out 650,000 and sent Dion into the tank before finally releasing his cards.

Robert Mizrachi Eliminated in 12th Place ($95,000)

Robert Mizrachi - 12th Place
Robert Mizrachi - 12th Place

Mikal Blomlie opened to 63,000 and it folded to Joel Micka who three-bet to 155,000 from the cutoff. Action came around to a short-stacked Robert Mizrachi who flat called from the small blind. Blomlie got out of the way and the two saw {8-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

Mizrachi wasted no time immediately shipping his last 242,000 all in. Micka shrugged and tossed out a call.

Mizrachi: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Micka: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

Mizrachi was ahead at the moment but needed to fade an ace, jack, or queen. He did exactly that when the {6-Spades} fell on fourth street. His hopes of staying alive in the tournament were dashed, however, when the {A-Spades} dropped down on the river, ensuring him a 12th place finish. Mizrachi will collect $95,000 for his efforts.

The flop, turn and river ran out {Q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, and the two players chopped up the pot.

"Chop suey!" exclaimed Mizrachi after the river card hit the felt.
