Hand #25: Mizrachi Stuns Wasnock on the River
Hand #25: Braxton Dunaway raised to 4,000,000 in the cutoff with Q♦9♣ before John Wasnock three-bet to 10,000,000 on the button. Michael Mizrachi was in the small blind and pointed up to signal to the dealer he was raising. He then put in 30,000,000.
Dunaway folded, but Wasnock moved all in. Mizrachi snap-called for his stack of 71,700,000.
Michael Mizrachi: A♠K♦ 
John Wasnock: K♠K♣
Mizrachi had run into Wasnock's kings and needed an ace to stay alive. The entire Horseshoe Event Center got onto their feet to await the flop, which came J♠9♥7♦.
The Q♣ turn gave Mizrachi additional outs with a straight draw going to the river. With Mizrachi a card away from elimination, he found the A♦ on the river and leapt to his feet in celebration as he doubled up into the chip lead.
"Fourth time in two days," Wasnock said to Mizrachi.
"I suck out when I need it," Mizrachi replied after retaking his seat.
