Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Michael Mizrachi and a big stack — that's a very common pairing in nearly any tournament the three-time bracelet winner enters.

This $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em event is no exception, with Mizrachi having already accumulated around 120,000.

His latest addition came when he bet about 18,000 on the {8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{5-Spades} turn, enough to cover his opponent's remaining chips. The rival called, relying on Lady Luck.

Michael Mizrachi: {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Opponent {Q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Mizrachi was up against a combo draw, and the {4-Clubs} river confirmed his victory, sending his opponent to the rail.
