Jesse Lonis raised to 550,000 from under the gun and was called by Michael Mizrachi in the hijack for a heads-up pot.
Mizrachi called a 1,500,000 bet from Lonis on the 2♥3♣7♥ flop, but went deep into the tank after Lonis barreled for 4,500,000 on the 9♦ turn.
Mizrachi eventually announced, "Pot," which was enough to commit Mizrachi's entire 8,275,000 into the middle, and Lonis called with his covering stack.
Michael Mizrachi: A♣A♠8♠3♥
Jesse Lonis: A♦J♥10♦7♦
It was good timing from Mizrachi, who found himself with a solid lead with his aces against Lonis's pair and gutshot draw.
The dealer brought the K♠ on the river. Mizrachi immediately clapped his hands and shouted, "Yes!" having scored the massive double up through Lonis, who was knocked down to 4,700,000 as a result of the hand.
