Mike Leah Eliminated in 4th Place ($364,197)

Level 24 : 150,000/300,000, 0 ante
Mike Leah
Mike Leah

Pot-Limit Omaha

Michael Mizrachi opened with a raise to 165,000 on the button and Mike Leah announced "pot" from the small blind, making it 575,000. Action folded back to Mizrachi who called.

The flop was {J-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Leah moved all in. Mizrachi quickly called.

Mike Leah: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Michael Mizrachi: {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}

Mizrachi was leading with a pair of fives and a gutshot straight draw but Leah had some outs with all of his over cards.

The {3-Spades} peeled off on the turn though and that left Leah drawing dead as Mizrachi made a straight to the six. The river was the {6-Diamonds} and that was it for Leah. He was eliminated in fourth place and will collect $364,197 for his run in the event.

The turn was the {J-Spades} to give Mizrachi another two outs, but the {4-Clubs} river officially locked up the double for Leah.
