Nuts Again For Mizrachi

Level 21

No-Limit Hold'em

From the cutoff Michael Mizrachi min-raised blind thinking it was Limit Hold'em. His straddle was called by both opponents.

The flop came down {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}, and Bloch was the only player who called Mizrachi's 75,000 chip bet.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and Bloch checked again. Mizrachi fired out 225,000 and and Bloch folded.

Mizrachi showed {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and he had made another big hand. Too bad for him nobody wanted to give him action, but he's still in the lead.
