Mizrachi Takes One Down
Level 26
: 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
After seeing consecutive flops and checking it all the way down, Phil Hellmuth and Michael Mizrachi both got a nice piece of a flop.
Mizrachi took charge, raising to 10,000 with 9♥8♥. Hellmuth called with 9♠6♠.
They both casually tossed in 10,000 in chips as if they were hardly interested in the flop of Q♠8♠9♦, though Mizrachi had two pair and Hellmuth middle pair with a flush draw.
Mizrachi led out with 30,000 on the K♥ turn, and Hellmuth again came along.
Mizrachi fired another 80,000 on the 7♥ river. This time, Hellmuth let it go.
