Michael Mizrachi's Got Chips

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

A player opened to 550 and Michael Mizrachi three-bet to 1,600. The initial raiser called and the flop was {10-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Both players checked.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and it checked to Mizrachi who bet 2,500. After some consideration, his opponent folded and Mizrachi flashed {q-}{10-} before mucking.

With that he chipped up to just under 20,000, or four times starting stack.

Jesse Rockowitz's Baby Flush Works

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

With about 1,200 already in the middle and the board reading {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, the small blind checked, Jesse Rockowitz checked from the big blind, and two other players checked behind.

The turn brought the {4-Spades} and the small blind bet 500. Rockowitz considered his decision for a few moments and called, and the two players behind him folded.

The river brought the {6-Clubs} and both players checked. Rockowitz tabled {A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for a small flush, his opponent mucked, and Rockowitz took the pot.

Bruno Politano Doubles Through Nadar Kakhmazov

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

On a {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} board one player checked and Bruno Politano checked. Nadar Kakhmazov bet 800 and the first player called. Politano then check-raised all in for 2,450. Kakhmazov called quickly and the third player in the hand folded.

"Two pair good?" asked Kakhmazov.

"It's good," said Politano.

The only thing was, Kakhmazov didn't have two pair. He showed {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} while Politano held {Q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

The turn was the {j-Hearts} and the river the {4-Hearts} giving Politano a straight.

"I thought I had {8-}{6-}{6-}{2-}," said Kakhmazov, shaking his head before counting out his Politano's double-up.

Jesse Fulmer Doubles Up, Eliminates a Player

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

There was a three-way all-in on a flop of {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds} between Jesse Fulmer and two other players.

Fulmer: {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Player 1: {j-Clubs}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades}
All in Player: {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The player at risk had flopped two pair and was open-ended, but neither were good against the flopped straight of the second player in the hand. Fulmer held the nut spades and they worked in his favor when the {4-Spades} peeled off on the turn. The river was the {6-Hearts}. One player was eliminated and Fulmer boosted his stack to around 17,000.
