Mizzi Messed With His Mind
The board read .
Evdakov checked and called a 15,000 bet from Mizzi, creating an even bigger side pot.
The river came and Evdakov checked once more. "Pot" came from the mouth of Mizzi. It was enough to put Evdakov all in as he only had 28,000 back.
Evdakov went into the tanks of all tanks, sporadically glancing up at the clock. The short-stacked all-in player thought he had no chance of winning the small main pot with all the action and he left.
Ten minutes went by and still no decision had been made. By this stage, half the table was up out of their seats walking around and it seemed Mizzi had waitied long enough too as he called the clock. Every second was taken by Evdakov before he was timed out and his hand was dead.
Mizzi stood up and said, "Call him back, I'm sure he's still got chips," and he flipped over for a pair of nines and a missed straight draw!
It took a few minutes to find the short-stacked player who had paired a king on the river to win the main pot.
A different level of poker thinking shown by Sorel Mizzi there.
He's back up to 95,000 now.
