Mirzikinian Makes The Right Call

Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Warwick Mirzikinian from Day 1.
Warwick Mirzikinian from Day 1.

With about 9,000 chips in the pot and the board reading {J-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, Warwick Mirzikinian had a bet of 4,500 placed in front of him. His opponent on the other side of the table was in the tank. Eventually he decided to shove for what he said was about 28,000.

Mirzikinian thought about it for roughly a minute before making the call.

Mirzikinian: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}

Mirzikinian had made the right call and he was rewarded when the board came down {8-Clubs} then {7-Clubs} to give him the winning hand and improving him to a straight he didn't needed.

With that hand, Mirzikinian has jumped up as one of the chip leaders early in the day here.
