Stud Hi-Lo

Robert Mizrachi: J♣9♥ / J♠9♣4♠Xx / Xx All in
Nicolas Milgrom: 7♠3♦ / 2♦5♣4♥Xx / Xx
Chris Brewer: XxXx / A♦8♣10♥ - folded on fifth street

After losing much of his stack in a prior Stud high in which he had three queens and the nut heart draw on sixth, but lost to Brewer's heart flush, Mizrachi had become short-stacked.

Brewer completed, Mizrachi raised, Milgrom cold-called from the bring-in, and Brewer came along. Mizrachi bet on fourth after Brewer checked and both opponents called.

On fifth, it checked to Milgrom who bet, Brewer folded, Mizrachi raised all-in, and Milgrom called.

Mizrachi had two pair against the made low of Milgrom. Milgrom caught the 8♠ on sixth and he found the A♣ on seventh to make a wheel, leaving Mizrachi in terrible shape.

The 2♠ he caught on sixth offered no help, but the flipped over the J♦ on seventh, making a full house to survive in miraculous fashion.

Rampage is Up More Than $1.3M in WSOP High Stakes Cash Games

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Calum Grant

Ethan "Rampage" Yau hasn't made much noise in the tournament streets at the 2026 World Series of Poker, cashing just twice so far this summer. But while the bracelets have proved elusive, the poker vlogger has been printing money in the biggest cash games in Las Vegas.

The WSOP bracelet winner is in the middle of the hottest run of his career on Hustler Casino Live. Over his last three appearances on the streamed high-stakes game, Yau has piled up more than $1.3 million in profit, including a $707,000 win on June 19. Combined with scores of $302,000 and $316,000 earlier in the month, Rampage has turned three sessions into a seven-figure heater.

Despite just two WSOP cashes to his name this summer, Yau has more than made up for it under the dimly lit lights of HCL, where the biggest pots have been going his way.
