Michael Mizrachi was flipping a red All In button, and when it came down with the 'All In' part up top, that was exactly what he announced he was doing: all in!
One player folded, the one that had bet asked for a count.
"What do you need that for?" Mizrachi laughed, "I don't have a pair yet!" the famous player smiled. "Ah, you need a club" his opponent said seconds before calling.
Mizrachi wasn't lying it turned out, as he showed . Not really needing any clubs though.

The on the turn was a blank and so was the on the river effectively. "I have a pair now!" Mizrachi laughed.

We just spotted Samantha Abernathy in today's event, and it happens to be her birthday. So, happy birthday to you Samantha!
Now let's get down to business, as the hand we watched with Abernathy did not go so well for her.

With 80,000 chips however, Abernathy is still in good shape.

Three players saw a flop of and action checked around. All three of them checked on the as well and they saw the river for free. The big blind checked and Smith bet 2,000. Boeken called from the button.
The big blind had much bigger plans though, quite unexpectedly check-raising to 10,000. Smith frowned and folded, but Boeken wasn't so eager to lay his hand down. He shrugged, leaned forward, and called after some thirty seconds of tanking.
The big blind reluctantly rolled over for a bluff. Boeken showed and took it down.
