Danny Mizrachi Hits the Jackpot

The elusive fourth Mizrachi brother
The elusive fourth Mizrachi brother

Whoa. This is one hand you'd certainly see on tv if the cameras had made it in time to capture the whole thing. But while his brother is on the feature table, Danny Mizrachi was grinding the short stack on a table behind it. He raised to 13,000 under the gun, and David Benyamine called in middle position. Both blinds came along, and the doozie of flop fell {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades}. The small blind fired out 38,000. The big blind folded, and Mizrachi raised to 80,000. Benyamine then tried to use his big stack to muscle everyone out, moving all in for around 700,000. The smal blind called for a total of 280,000. And Mizrachi called all in as well with his last 124,000. Time for showdown.

Mizrachi: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for the flopped nuts
Small Blind: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a flopped set
Benyamine: {8-Spades}{6-Spades} for a flush draw and an open-ended second-best straight draw

"That's the last thing I wanted to see - a flush draw and a set," Mizrachi said. Eric Mizrachi, who was eliminated shortly after the bubble, ran over to sweat the hand, and Michael Mizrachi's wife jogged in from the feature table to watch as well.

The {2-Clubs} turn was a brick, and the {4-Hearts} river was more of the same. The Mizrachi clan went nuts with high fives and hugs as Danny tripled up to 455,000. The small blind got the side pot to stay alive, and Benyamine dropped to 470,000.
