Pot-Limit Omaha

Michael Mizrachi completed the blind, and Matthew Ashton potted to 48,000. "The Grinder" called and checked a {6-Spades}{7-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} flop. Ashton potted, and Mizrachi stuck his stack in, which turned out to be 231,000.

Mizrachi: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Ashton: {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Mizrachi had top-top and a couple of blockers, while Ashton had sixes with a straight draw. He got there right away when the {5-Clubs} hit, and Mizrachi exited his seat in disgust and started to walk away. He didn't realize he had a set, and he filled up on the {6-Clubs} river to double.

"I didn't even know," he said with a sheepish laugh as he walked back to his seat when told he won the pot. "I thought I was dead."
