Mizrachi Busts Two; Sturm Five-Bet Jams
Michael Mizrachi in the big blind and Richard Buckingham from an early position tangled in a preflop all-in with nearly identical stack sizes and Mizrachi vaulted out of his chair while motioning to his nearby rail.
Richard Buckingham: 4♦4♣
Michael Mizrachi: Q♦Q♣
The suits were covered and Buckingham found no escape on the 9♥7♦3♠10♥J♦ runout. Both stacks were counted and the 5.5 million of Buckingham were covered by only a few blinds.
Soon after, Dillon Ott pushed all in for around 3,100,000 and Mizrachi called in the next seat.
Dillon Ott: A♦K♦
Michael Mizrachi: Q♦Q♥
The pocket pair held and made a flush on the 7♥6♥2♣4♥9♥ board to score the next knockout.
In the meanwhile, Kohei Arai raised to 300,000 and Leon Sturm three-bet to 750,000. Yong Han cold four-bet to 1,600,000 in the big blind for Arai to reluctantly fold. Sturm five-bet jammed and Han folded.
