Mizzi Teaching a Lesson on Four-betting

Sorel Mizzi
Sorel Mizzi
Despite his late arrival, Sorel Mizzi has skyrocketed toward the top of the leaderboard and currently sits with just over 80,000 in chips. He's three and four-bet his way to the top, winning most of the pots he plays without showdowns. Here's one such example:

Homan Houshair opened with a raise to 500 from late position and Antony Lellouche re-popped it to 1,750 from the small blind. Mizzi then tanked for a brief moment before kicking it up to 5,500, prompting both of his opponents to flick their cards into the muck.
