Mizzing a Trick

Sorel Mizzi has taken a bit of a hit after raising in early position. The gent to his left reraised and a third player called behind; Mizzi flatted too, and they saw a flop.

The flop came down {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Mizzi checked. The preflop reraiser bet, and both players called, sending them still three-way to the turn.

The turn was the {10-Clubs} and Mizzi checked again. Mr. Preflop Reraiser bet once more and this time the third player folded. Mizzi called though, and they saw the river.

The river was another club, this time the {6-Clubs} putting a potential straight flush on the board. Mizzi bet out and his opponent - expressing his fear of the straight flush with a sigh - made the call.

He had nothing to worry about.

Mizzi turned over {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for the king-high flush, and his relieved opponent tabled {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for the ace-high flush. With that, Mizzi was reduced to 3,200.
