Mateos Bests Mizrachi; Double for Burns

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Michael Mizrachi checked a {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} board to Adrian Mateos who bet 4,000 into 9,000. After some thought Mizrachi folded, and the Spaniard took down the pot.

Meanwhile, Kahle Burns called a bet of 1,600 in position on a {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades} board, and the river was the {3-Spades}. His opponent checked the river to Burns, who moved all in for 7,200.

After much deliberation, his opponent flung the chips into the middle to call. Burns showed {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts} for a rivered straight, and that was enough to take down the pot.
