Robert Mizrachi Doubles Up Early
Log:
After a flop of Ah-Qd-4s, Robert Mizrachi moves all in for $34,500, and the player in seat 4 says something along the lines of "I know you've got me beat, but I have to call." The player in seat 4 shows Ac-10c -- good only for top pair. Mizrachi flips over As-Qs for top two, and he is in a dominating position to double up here (the player in seat 4 has more chips). The only way Mizrachi can lose is if the other player hits a runner-runner straight or running tens (and they'd chop if the board brought running kings).

The Ks on the turn gave the other player some outs, and he could catch a jack to win or another king to chop. The river card is the 2s, and Mizrachi makes an unnecessary flush to win the pot and double up to about $70,000 in chips.


Did he think he was getting pot odds or something? Wow is all I can say.

Yeah, I saw that too - I thought that sort of stuff only happens online.

what a bad call...unreal, he just wasted 15000$..donkey canr even lay down top pair for all those chips

He couldve just taken that money and bought a piece of a few pros, or just put it into my BR and I wouldve given him back 25k in a year.

When I saw the title of this thread I thought your post was going to say, "with myself." I must say, I'm a little dissapointed.

I hate to disappoint, I'll play with myself right now, just for you.

Thanks, but I can't stay around to watch now. I have to go take a poop, and I'm going to eat a cookie or two while I'm on the toilet. How do you like them apples?

what a terriable play.

Yeah eating cookies while pooping is -EV.

Is that not a bit unethical ;-) of yourself?

Was that guy related to the Grinder? Sounds like that guy was watching too many episodes on the travel channel and thought he was at the final table. A 10? What could that donk beat? I got chip envy and I am not even in the tourney

Robert Mizrachi, the winner of the above hand is "The Grinder's" brother. He's also a very accomplished pro in Europe. He also has another brother, who isn't 21 yet, but is still dominating online poker. In the near future, there will be 3 Mizrachi's that are going to dominate the poker world.

I'll also laughed at this... I MIGHT do this at the start of the final table... if I thought I had a good read... but that early in a major tourney?!?

$15k wasted..... how many hookers and lap dances could that have bought?!?!

what a waste!!

CCM - AcesFull333

:shock:
He's beating A9 and worse, thats it.

Music to Mizrachi's ears when the guy says "I know youve got me beat but..."

Sorry bout that, I didn't notice it was Robert not Mike. I was so dumbfounded by that play I didn't pay attention to the name lol. And yes robert is a very talented player
