Michael Mizrachi completed before Naoya Kihara raised. It folded back to Mizrachi, who made it three-bets. Kihara called.
"You've got 7-7-9," Mizrachi told Kihara, who called bets on fourth and fifth street. "I've got trips...a set of kings," Mizrachi continued.
On sixth street, the action really picked up, with a series of raises taking place. Mizrachi called Kihara's five-bet, and then checked on seventh. Kihara threw out another bet, and Mizrachi wasn't thrilled with the spot, but put in the call.
Kihara turned over his flush to leave Mizrachi among the short stacks.
