Match 1: Cazals Can't Call

Warwick Mirzikinian raised to 55,000 on the button and Aubin Cazals called from the big blind to see a {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop.

Cazals led out for 60,000 and was quickly called by Mirzikinian. The {2-Spades} hit the turn and Cazals fired again, this time 125,000. That still didn't shake Mirzikinian who called to see the {J-Hearts} river. Cazals slowed down and checked it to Mirzikinian who bet 175,000.

That bet sent Cazals into the tank for a good three minutes before he gave it up.

Match 1: Mirzikinian Moves To The Front

Warwick Mirzikinian raised to 55,000 on the button and Aubin Cazals defended his big blind.

Cazals Doubles For a Second Time

Warwick Mirzikinian raised to 50,000 on the button and Aubin Cazals three-bet to 135,000 from the big blind. Mirzikinian came back over the top to 400,000, resulting in a five-bet jam from Cazals for 573,000 total. A call from Mirzikinian put the cards on their backs.

Cazals: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Mirzikinian: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

It was a familiar site for Mirzikinian as yesterday he eliminated Marvin Rettenmaier with pocket threes, but it didn't happen this time as the board ran out {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} to secure the double up for Cazals.
