Not That Mizrachi. Nope, Not That One Either.

The player under the gun limped into the pot for 200, and Roni Mizrachi moved all in for his last 3,000 chips. Next door, John Monnette quickly made the call as the rest of the table folded out of the way. Mizrachi was at risk for his tournament life with {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades}, racing for salvation against the {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades} of Monnette.

The board would run out dry as a bone for the all-in player, coming {2-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {7-Spades}. "Seat open!" yelled the dealer immediately. With that, a rather dejected looking Mizrachi slowly paced to the exit.
