Grinding Up and Down

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Michael Mizrachi is playing just about every hand. First he managed to double to about 38,000 when he shoved on the river of a {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} board, got called and showed {6-Clubs}{4-Hearts} for the rivered straight.

But what goes up, must come down.

A couple of hands later saw Mizrachi raise Pierre Sayegh's 3,000 turn to 6,500 on a {3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} board. Sayegh called that then instantly called another 10,000 on the {J-Diamonds} river. Mizrachi tapped the table and was about to show but mucked when he saw Sayegh's {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}.
